    If you had Vandy +8,5 tonight

    I think you might have a serious contender for worst beat of the year.

    Just saw the highlights -- Ole Miss kid hits a 35-footer as time expires to force overtime, and the Commodores fall apart, score 1 point in the OT and lose by 10.

    My condolences. How does Kevin Stallings still have a job?

    If the line was 3, I wouldn't have thought anything of it. Just a bad break.

    But not covering the 8.5 in OT after giving up a heave at the buzzer? Ouch.

    3+ run 9th innings by one team are sickening. I was on the wrong side of that 7 or 8 run 9th inning comeback a few years ago, doesn't get much worse.

    I even had +9.5, to make it worse.

    Vandy led at half, led most the game, up 11 w/ 6min left. Brutal.

    Of course I was on it. Do you even have to ask?
    Duke loss in the bowl game felt worse.
    Baseball - you know there is always that indefinite potential
    So I always feel better prepared.

    OT in C football, the max you can lose by
    is 8, so when you lose by 14 after about to be
    Up 7 with 90 seconds left- we that hurts a bit.

    Duke game was one of the worst you'll see all year. Along with that half court heave to cover the +4 a couple days ago. Basketball is bad, but points are scored so quick, that even when you're beating the spread by 12 points with 4 minutes to go, you know anything can happen. Football points come at much more of a premium.
    Not sure where baseball fits in, if its more/less shocking then football when shit hits the fan.

    Luckily, I had Miss in this game and I had already tuned it out in the background because they should have lost SU. The bad beat I had was the Cincy game. Covering at just a minute left, inbounds the ball and the kid dribbles not even trying to pass or get it up court waiting on a foul call to only lose it. Cincy only wins by 5 after winning by 13 the whole 2nd half. Heck the only win I had tonight was Miss, my card would have been perfect if not for that stunning cover.

    A few years ago, I had Louisville -12, went to double overtime, and they still covered.
    Most undeserving win I've ever had.

    Vandy is definitely the bad beat of the night

    I agree with the sentiment that Kevin Stallings isn't much of a coach. You're down by 5, 6, 8 . . . TAKE THE BALL TO THE BASKET!!! . . . I will fade Vandy with every dime I own in its next game.

    Yeah I watched the game and my parlay go down the drain. I had them at 9.5. Pretty sick just 1 point in OT...a highschool team could have scored more

    A tough beat swallow. To make it worse I like how the Vandy player airballed the open three at the very end. He hits that, they cover. I guess it was a fitting end. Going forward, I was not impressed with Miss at all. They're over-rated & I'll be looking for spots to fade them in when they get into better competition.

    I had vandy + 6 1/2 for the second half. I am pissed. To make it worse, vandy had a 13 point lead with under 10 mins to go. Unrealz.

    I didn't even have money on the game. Just saw the highlights and noticed the line was in the 9 range. Figured those who did lose money would want to commiserate here. Trust me: I would've been much more animated had I bet on Vandy.

    I'm sorry -- I thought this was a gambling forum. We now return you to the regularly scheduled bullshit that clogs PT every day.

    I've taken a string of bad beats this year. The fact that Vandy shot out of their mind behind the arc is something noone could have ever factored into this game. I was on Ole Miss and I doubled down on them at the half. I agree that it was a bad beat for Vandy fan, but it was fun to finally win one on the other side. Old Miss played a good game and I would not hurry to bet against them. BTW, the late three not going in after Ole Miss turned it over was just icing on the cake.

    Vandy coach ran on the court after the made 3 to set up his defense. He wasn't granted the time out and we se what happened. Henderson was on fire and they would never had let him shoot if they were granted the time out. I had trouble sleeping last night.
