This is a thread to post your bad beats. Anything happen in the last minute of the game that cost you on a game/1st or 2nd half line/ teaser/or any other exotic line that you had where you just shook your head?

Here is a bitchbox thread where we can complain (and laugh about) our bad beats

Lets also have any "bad situations" or "unfortunate events" that happened in the final minute that cost ya $$.

That TCU missed fg at the end of the 1h is a perfect case for this thread. Maybe "bad beat" was a bad choice of words

I also cant figure out why for a school with such smart kids, how was Vandy so dumb yesterday? Granted its an SEC school

BYU Hail Maryyyyyyyyyyy! Helped me win my OVER.

I'm sure there are people out there who lost on their UNDER play, and whoever had Nebraska ML, + whatever parlays they had them in. Rough beat for UNDER + Braska backers!

I don`t think their were to many bad beats in week 1.

I would say that the Nebraska ML qualifies as a bad beat....No doubt.

Look at the Purdue/Marshall Game. Marshall was a 7 pt fav.

Marshall scores a td w/ 2:50 left in the game to go up 3. Then Marshall scores on a pick 6 a minute later for the cover.

Since I love to complain, I'll say my worst of several bad beats in week #1 was the Under 28.5 2nd half ASU vs. TA&M. TA&M had the ball at roughly their own 40, with a 7 point lead and less than 4 minutes left in the game, with me sitting on an eleven point cushion for the Under to still hit. A couple of first downs and it's all good, right? Nope. On second and 1 TA&M throws a quick out that goes for a long TD. ASU gets the ball back, doesn't go anywhere, and in goes for it on 4th and forever trailing by a shitload. They turn it over and once again can't keep TA&M out of the endzone. Grr.

But still, anyone who had Purdue took a horrible beat, and anyone who had VT had a very sour end to their week. Not to say they still would've covered with Brewer in there, but that was clearly where the tide turned.

I had the 2nd half under in that bowl game. Ironically enough, that last play of the game made that game go over.

Check out the Scott Van Pelt video on ESPN.com for the worst beat of the week. It will be a weekly segment

Well here you go. How many saw UCLA wiping the floor with Virginia? So UCLA is up 31-9 early 4th and driving with ease. They get to about the 10 yard line 3rd and 1. They already scored an easy TD with a power backfield set. So they go to that again right? Well no. They go to shotgun formation. WTF?!?! And of course the QB takes his eye off the snap and it goes flying past him. They then try a 50 yard field goal and of course its a miss. Sucks but its still a cover at this point. So UCLA gets the ball again and again go flying down the field. They are at the 3 yard line. Once again they f*ck around and can't get it done and kick a 20 yard field goal. But we are all good right? Virginia hasn't scored a TD all game. BRING ON THE 2ND TEAM DEFENSE SPORTS FANS! Thank you UCLA you f*ckwads. Of course Virginia goes right down the field for the meaningless TD. UCLA then fumbles the ensuing kickoff (they recovered thank god) just to put a heart attack into some people. Luckily the clock ran out before more damage could be done.

Crazy thing is this wasnt a top bad beat for me in wk 1.
Even worse we could of got -17.5 late, closer to kickoff

If Oklahoma hadn't picked off Tennessee during 2OT, it would've went to 3OT and I would've had my over.
Oh and Rutgers.
