Welcome to the NCAA tourney... the land of backdoor covers.

**Jonah** · 03-18-11, 11:38 PM

Absurd. Who knew you could just grab a jersey and pick which guy you wanted to send to the foul line. Not to mention clock doesn' t run.

Or extending leads ridiculously(which I guess is another form of a backdoor cover) depending on which team I have. I have team in lead- choke job...Texas and Washington. I have team hanging on, especially w/teaser. Bam 8 points like that.

**dtp** · 03-18-11, 11:56 PM

Seemed like Georgia was in the ballgame the whole time though.

**JDUB07** · 03-19-11, 12:00 AM

Man I thought that last 3 to tie it up was going to bank off the glass and be good. They had the right idea and if Isaiah Thomas didn't deflect it Georgia probably would have stuck it.

I dont knw if I agree with this but if you look at the record it stood to reason that UGa would keep it close. Funny though last night I was 99% sure UW would win but I did not trust them ot cover the 5.5 So many tourny games are bad beats, I don't know if this qualifies ))) UW was claely better team gate to wire but yet did not cover. In similar fashion, but total different spread, BU gave Kansas a fit for 80% of game but Ks had a 2 minute spurt where they hit like 5 3ptrs and anything they tossed in the vicinity of the rim went in! So happy BU covered, belive me, but it is hard to say before hand which was the "smart bet" Again this is coommon to every tournametn and false braggarts dance for no good reason.

I pulled 22 hairs out of my head on that shot. I counted them.

**Jonah** · 03-19-11, 12:05 AM

Got to give the Dogs credit for showing absolutely no cajones the entire game. Kept them around 10 and then they let the Washington geniuses do the rest.

**sportsfun** · 03-19-11, 12:07 AM

did not see, what happened? georgia hit a 3 pointer near the end?

**KingKolzig** · 03-19-11, 12:07 AM

UGA +3 covered

**terpkeg** · 03-19-11, 12:11 AM

While the end of the game was tough for UW backers, it was not a complete ass job cover. The first 24 minutes of the game was back and forth. The tide actually turned when it was 33-32 and there was back to back TERRIBLE calls by the zebras. Nice block by UGA, all ball. Foul is called, 2 free throws. Then followup dunk, ball about a foot off the rim on next possession, O GOALTENDING?? WHAT?? Real bad. UW comes down scores, turnover then three. Bam all the sudden 8 point game. I dont think it ever got over 10 the whole game. Did it? So game that was basically possession for possession the entire game, turned on a quick 7 point swing in about a minute.

Felt like 2nd half was a prolonged 10 pt lead by wash regardless of what reality was. Doubt if they ever went up by 14 or more as you mention this but still never felt like Ga was goint to do it till that last ditch effort.

**Jive** · 03-19-11, 12:15 AM

I'm just glad Washington won. I've been waiting a week to go big on the Washington/UNC game.

**jeffksu** · 03-19-11, 12:17 AM

yep, congrats to Georgia backers and UofW ml players...we win some and lose some...

This right here is the correct response. UW got nearly every single break in that second half and still didn't cover. Sorry if I don't feel too bad for you.

**Mac4Lyfe** · 03-19-11, 12:30 AM

Ref's won the game for UW. That series of bad calls really dug UGA too big a hole to recover. I hate being on the wrong side of the fix.

**Pride** · 03-19-11, 01:28 AM

refs beat the bulldogs tonight, not the huskies.

**Statman** · 03-19-11, 06:43 AM

There was also a very good stretch Georgia had in the 1st half being up by 7 or 8? It still ended tied at the half but it was nice to see the 'dog' going head to head against the chalk. Also seems the refs have had a lot of game deciding calls to make. Wasn't that a foul at the end of the Louisville/Morehead game?

**firehoyt** · 03-19-11, 07:19 AM

Fucccckkkkk washington and Arizona for being ahead most of the ballgame by at least the spread but allowing both Memphis and Georgia to get the backdoor cover. I'm playing all moneylines today. Fuccckk this shit. I'm sick of losing bets by one or two points.
