Who fixed the Under in the Oak/Pit game

[statnerds]

I'm not big on thinking games are ever fixed, and I usually make fun of people that say stupid shit like that.

And maybe it is because I just started reading Interference about gambling and the NFL and players shaving points and refs doing shady shit

But there had to be heavy money on this Under.

21-3 at the Half.

Campbell throws a pick at his own 28 with 11:02 to go in the 3rd.

Next play is Mendenhall to the 1, but penalty on Pitt brings it back to 1st and 20 at the 38. Pit has to punt.

Raider ball on the 5.

Campbell throws the pick 6, but another penalty takes a TD off the board.

would have been 28-3 with 8 minutes to play in the third.

So instead Oakland ends up punting. Pit big return on a shit kick to the Oakland 33.

8 yard pick-up on first down called back on another penalty. This one a 15 yarder that forces Pit to punt again.

The refs kept at least 10 points off the board in the 3rd quarter alone.

I'm just saying.

What is even more amazing is the 12 penalties on the Steelers...in the first 3 quarters.

Multi mil's fixing games for the man. Sure makes sense.

When you put money on something and you get unlucky, it always seems like it is fixed.

I had the under but there have been games in which I was on the other side and it sure seemed like the game was fixed.

I had Stanford a few weeks ago against ASU and their running back intentionally fell down at the three yard line when no one was around him and he had an easy break away touchdown at the end of the game. It cost me the bet.

[Prof Bungletree]

Yeah, that's actually a real tree. It is kinda freaky!

nfl games always feel like fixes. unless you win

I told you douchebags I make fun of people for the same thing, but that defensive TD was called back because of

"roughing the passer. the defender hit and then fell on top of the QB". so the hit wasn't late and it wasn't a head shot, but in the act of tackling the QB, the defender landed on him. so defenders are expected to tackle and not fall on players.

that was the fukkin call. will be the first and last time you hear that one.
