    Vote for the worst beat of the day

    Incredibly, I had all three of these.

    Pennsylvania +4.5 in hoops. Penn makes a huge comeback at the end of regulation and goes up by 2 with 1:20 left in regulation. Temple then reels off five straight points and goes up by three with two seconds left. Penn misses the tying three, fouls, Temple kid makes both FT's, and Owls win by 5.

    BYU +9.5 in football. Mormons (or should I say, Morons) are down by 10 with about 1:30 left and in the Badger red zone. Needing two scores no matter what, instead of kicking the field goal immediately and going for an on-side, they fumble f\*\*k around trying to score a TD, the clock runs out in regulation and they lose by 10.

    West Virginia +6 in football. You just saw how this one ended. Texas drives down at the end of regulation but doesn't put the game away, instead settling for a field goal to force OT. They then score to open the extra session, WVU gets the ball and can't tie it from 1st and goal at the 5. WVU loses by 7.

    All three bets were multiple units for me -- not huge money by any means, but goddam.

    Magic+8.5 (got a bad line at a book that posts way before games). They were up by 1 with 3 mins to go, then just looked like they were trying to lose over the next few possessions and Hawks go on a 10-0 run in about a minute and a half to lead by 9. To add insult to injury, last possession down by 10, Orlando steals, and then decides to just dribble out the clock instead of taking a last shot that teams that are led typically take.

    Those are three tough ones.

    I didn't really see any of them, but reading the synopsis I would have to go with....hmmm...West Virginia.

    Had that one too. For 5U.

    If that wasn't the worst beat of all-time, I would love to see what was.

    I think it was, though these three nut-kickers today actually made me forget about it for a few seconds.

    I didn't feel confident in Texas(I'm a Longhorns fan) So I bet the over 55, which earned me some money!

    Wvu played great D but with all their turnovers AND losing their starting qb they should of never been it. Texas had like 4 or 5 redzone trips stalled for FGs. Not tp be a dick but if I had them I'd consider it a win to even be in it that long. And not to mention wvu had thr ball inside the 5 in that Ot but what happened? Another turnover to end the game.

    It was a great game, sloppy as hell game though! Hopefully Mack Brown will be gone at the end of the year.

    Texas had the lead for how much of this game again?

    I didn't have WVU ML. I just had them at +6. I would agree with you if you said they were fortunate enough to be in it to actually win. I just needed Texas to finish them in regulation with a TD and win by 4.

    Would suck to be on the other end of the Wiscy game but you gotta admit it would have been a nice back door if BYU covered

    I threw a couple bucks on under 54.5 in the bama game for lack of any other play, and well if LSU doesn't miss three tackles inside the five that probably would have been under....instead I lose by half point. My own fault for jumping in at kick off lol

    Penn and/or BYU would've been great backdoors. I would've settled for a split. Can't believe neither hit given what happened down the stretch of those games.

    Don't even get me started on the WVU loss, though.

    my worst was last year. bowl game. duke/cincy, game tied, time running out Ive got duke +9. duke has the ball on the cincy 5. instead of running out the time and kicking a fg, duke wants a touchdown, Duke mf'er fumbles the ball. next play cincy qb throws like a 90 yard td pass to go up 7. I tell my chick, thats ok, ive got +9. ensuing play, duke qb gets sacked, ball flips up and cincy lineman catches it and runs it in for a td. first word out of my mouth: Un'fcknbelievable. log onto sbr, and the first thread I see regarding the game was titled Un'fcknbelievable.

    Well, sounds like Penn in bball isn't a bad beat if you're trailing all game.

    Byu was down 17 with 5 min to go and was fortunate to even have a shot at a backdoor.. Another wrong side

    Can't comment on third.

    It's not a bad beat if you're trailing all game.... It's a bad bet.

    The duke (I think?) football game last year. Where they were down 7 getting 10+ points and in the redzone with like 20 seconds left.

    Fumble recovered for 6 the other way.

    Might be comparable.

    I had that one too. I liked that one a lot.

    I feel like BYU kicked the early FG last year to F me...How bout those refs throwing the flags due to all the muggings by Wisky on BYU receivers, but they kept calling un-catchable. Balls were way F- in catchable.

    Knew WVU was fukked when they won the coin flip. I'm not that pissed though because I dragged my ass all week, couldn't pull the trigger, and missed all of the 7-7.5s.

    This stuff evens out over time.

    I used to get pissed about these situations, but it's not fair to be so upset about a bad beat when I also catch a lot of lucky breaks to win bets.
