That too. It was a meaningless basket that UCLA had no business making, but they did. I was fortunately on the right side of it that night.
I was too
Also been on the other side an Elon game where the other team made the game winning basket from the opponents foul line after a missed free throw.
If you bet enough games it's bound to happen to you once in a while. Definitely a kick in the nuts, but what can you do.
What drives you crazy though is games where these college kids run up the score for no reason.
Couple years back I had Vandy plus the points vs. Tennessee. It was 3rd and 2 or 4th and 2 from the 25 yard line or so with under a min left. All the RB had to do was fall down and the game would be over, but of course that mofo took it to the house.

I had a 6 game 2H college basketball parlay for $50 that paid $2800
All the games were cruising and looking good except one of them was Kansas -7 under 75. They had scored about 60 points total in a blow out and in the 2H Kansas was up by 30 and I needed them to cover 22 to hit my bet. In the last 2 minutes (I dont remember the teams name) outscores Kansas by 9 points and with 8 seconds to go they foul Kansas to shoot 2 free throws. The guy misses both free throws and I miss the spread by 1 point.
I was having a great week so it didn't piss me of too much but that was nasty.

I had a running back with nothing but open field in front of him. No one was fast enough to tackle him. All he had to do was keep on running into the end zone and my bet was in the bag. He pulled a hammy and fell over. I lost.

knicks covering the spread by 1 the opposing team misses rebound secured by earl monroe with a few seconds left.Monroe then shoots the ball in the other teams basket.It counts for 2 knicks blow cover.
Bad beat but does not surprise me.

In the 80's, I played Fresno St +6.5 at U of Washington. The game ended on 5. Teams shook hands and left the court. A foul at the buzzer by FS was originally dismissed by the officials. 10 minutes later a player for U of W came out of the dressing room and made two FT to cover.
