    Had UCF -17 on 5Dimes and despite game being final my wager was cancelled

    Thought I had a win with UCF at -17 yesterday on 5Dimes but since the game only went 3 quarters I get nothing. Their rules say a game is considered final after 55 minutes. I know I know, I wouldn't be complaining if I had lost but it still sucks.

    this is an industry standard rule..

    I remember years back Wisconsin crushing the spread @ UNLV and the power went out late in the game just short of the 55 minute mark. The generator blew or something and the game was not resumed.

    Yeah, sure the generator blew in Vegas... I was on Wisconsin as well and that was no act of God.

    after the miracle Chiefs/over cover this past MNF, my buddy and I were brainstorming about the worst sports beats we had ever taken. The Wisconsin game was discussed....

    i've had a bunch of heated arguments over the years about that game

    most wisconsin fans still think it was on the up-and-up, even though 99% of the bets were on wisconsin, and barry alvarez is the one that refused to restart the game because of "player safety"... same guy that sold out his wisconsin team (as a 3.5 point favorite) to ohio state 59-0 to get a big 10 team into the playoff

    weird that nfl players can be on the sidelines for opposing drives and get back into the game without being hurt!
