I bought em down to -9.5. $260/$200.
i guess in retrospect, the three and a half hour roller coaster ride of emotions was worth every cent, BUT,
I sure could use that $460 in my account.
When the onside kick took the most fucked up bounce of all time, I pretty much new my bet was toast.
Then again, the look on my black lab's face as I danced around the room following the D-lineman's pic 6 to put 'em up 18 was priceless!

If that's the worst beat you've taken, you're pretty lucky. That was mild.

Both teams got their share of breaks in that game. But a tough one for sure.

haha mild indeed, esp considering they were down by 21 and even had a chance to cover. dont sweat it too much, there will be plenty of real bad beats along your gambling career.

Yep, when you lose by a team taking a late safety or a team returning an onside kick to lose or all the many other ways to lose you will join the long time suffers of this "wonderful " habit. LOL

I hear you. I figured two straight losses to OL' Miss would provide enough incentive for Bama to cover the 9.5--even on the road.
When I saw Fla. St. get pissed on by Louisville, I figured Fl St. Was overrated and they ran away from OL' Miss, albeit at home.
Crazy freaking game. Down 24-3 I never thought my -9.5 had a chance.
I am + money betting on Bama over the last few years, pparticularly on the road. Hard to bet against that asshole, Saban.

At least you didn't lose because some crooked refs who bet the game ruled a kick good even though it clearly sailed wide. Yes I had Toledo +2.5 and lost much more than 260. Never believed in fixes until this game.

Ole Miss should've won straight up, Alabama got so many lucky breaks it was incredible.

Rumor has that all the "locals" in Toledo are highly organized and.......well connected.

Would've been 5-1 in the CFB contest had Bama not stepped on their hoohoo.
