A technical foul with 0.1 seconds left due to a cheerleader.

It can't get any worse than that.

Arizona vs Washington in Feb... Zona was -2 and up 1 point with 5 seconds left and the ball... The stupid idiot on Zona couldnt even inbound the ball to his teamate, something got messed up where Washington got the ball and instead of 2 foul shots by Zona and probably at worst a push, they won by 1 and I lost big! That one sticks in my mind that most this year!

It wasnt terrible, but the Temple/SDSU game comes to mind.

I had Temple +5.5 and Under 125.5.

The Under was not even close to going Over. Then the First overtime comes around. It wasnt even close to going Over. Then the Second overtime comes around, ugh.

The game went over and then Temple blew the cover to boot.

It was really tough to watch because how SDSU finished the game. They had the ball at the end of regulation and the first OT, they didnt really try to score either time.

It was the classic case of a team playing not to lose, as opposed to win. They had around 18 seconds on the clock each time. Dribbled down to 4 or 5 and then made an ill-advised attempt at a last shot - which they had to rush because they dribbled the clock down so far.

They made that mistake once. And then made that same mistake at the end of the first OT.

smu/Jacksonville 2H under.  

the O/U was 66.5 and the teams had combined for 26 points with 7 minutes left and only 37 with only 4 minutes left.

They then worked together to score 30 points in 4 minutes and make me lose by a hook

Had Virginia ML +200 for 5 Units...I was at work checking my phone every 10 minutes or so...I saw they were up double digits with under 2 minutes left and I had gotten a text from my boy saying "Nice call on Virginia".  I checked back a few minutes later only to see it was tied and going into OT.  I've been calling my boy a Mush ever since.

Another one that comes to mind was UCLA @ Cal towards the end of the regular season.  Was having an awful week and this was the Sunday Night game.  I had UCLA in the 1H and they took a dump all over the court, down like 10 at half.  So in a last ditch to salvage my week, I did a big 3 team Parlay with an NBA game (cant remember which one), UCLA 2H, and Under 73.  I had the NBA game and UCLA 2H pretty much locked up with only 1 second left in regulation.  What happens? Honeycutt from UCLA throws up a prayer that hits off the front rim, up in the air and straight through the hoop to force an OT and bring the total to 73! I thought I was going to lose it.  I mean there is 1 second left, you're up 3 and you don't foul??  That finished off a brutal week.

I lost a Cuse under at MSG with 24 points in the final minute.



Not this year, but 1 or 2 ago. It was terrible.

The fact the kid nailed both makes this that much worse.
