#2 Posted: 4/9/2012 6:34:56 PM Miami @ Maryland in week 1 was probably the worst beat of the season.
The other one that ranks right up there with that one is the Georgia Tech @ NC State. The only reason this was not the worst beat of the year is that some people (like me) had GT at -10 pushed. Most GT backers didn't though, and lost.

Oh, that's a brutal beat, no doubt about it.

#6 Posted: 4/10/2012 1:32:19 AM Another brutal, brutal beat was the Cental Florida @ Florida International game. I had Central Florida -3 first half.
Central Florida was leading 7-0 like 14 seconds remaining in the first half. They were in position for a long field goal attempt. They ran one more play to try and get a little closer. Central Florida QB Jeff Godfrey dropped back to pass. With no pass rush in sight, the ball slipped out his hand as he was attempting to pass. Facaine from FIU pick up the fumble and ran for an uncontested TD to tie the score 7-7 with 6 seconds left in the half.
As bad beats go, they really don't get much worse than that right there.

#13 Posted: 4/16/2012 10:26:05 PM without a doubt...
Ga Tech at NC State...the only way the Ga Tech backers could lose, if Ga Tech did not take a knee to end the game, ran a play, fumble, and NC State it back for a TD with seconds left to cover. Absolutely absure...I still curse johnson...that game wins. look up the box score and the description |

I think the worst beat of anybody last year has to be the USC/Utah ending... Utah backers were paid... then later had it taken away because they decided to give USC the points... I still think it's BS |

Hawaii scores to cut the lead to 6. UW blocks and returns the XP for 2 inside of a minute to push the lead to 8.
I had Hawaii +6.5.

#23 Posted: 4/20/2012 12:38:10 AM Baylor v. Washington - I was on the winning/covering side with Baylor, but I don't know how the hell they covered. No D in that game....
Also Oklahoma over Iowa in the Insight Bowl. OU scored on a chump TD by the QB to cover. I was on the winning side of that is well. However, I could feel for the Iowa backers.
Both of these were almost as absurd as the NC State v. Ga Tech debacle...
You just never know...
