Never been so sore from so much back door action going against me in one day.
The 1st, Indiana(+17), Iowa scores 28 points in 4th quarter, Indiana calls timeout with a minute left, Iowa breaks 27 yard td run for the cover.
The 2nd, UL Monroe(+14.5), Game is at a 14 point margin for most of the game, Troy punts with a little over a minute left to play. Right on Queue, Monroe QB throws pick 6 for the Troy cover.
The 3rd, Tulane(+36), Tulane sucks, knew this going in, just didn't see LSU putting up 6 td's. We won't mention the multiple Tulane red zone turnover's, but instead Les Miles ramming the ball right down the field at 35-0 with 2 minutes to play. LSU 10 yd touchdown with one minute remaining for the cover.
And finally the 4th, Notre Dame(-27.5), Dominates the whole game, but was only covering after their final score, so they made sure it didn't last long. Gives up an easy td to Wash St. with around 4 minutes to play for the backdoor cover.
What a painful day it was, and what a day it could/should have been!

My favorite was Arkansas; they get up 49-0 and then are up 63-20 and promptly put in 2nd team qb who turns it over inside 30 twice... and then puts in 3rd team qb who does the same thing... even that was not enough to toally blow the cover they thought and they thought anad finally they knew they could not blow the cover unless they put in the walk ons on defense. congratulations; well done backdoor by 1/2 point

It seems your mixing up front door and back door covers......your first 3 examples are front door covers, and your last is a back door cover, just letting you know

It's been one of the worst years for me. I can't catch a break. I am -10 on defensive TD's YTD. It's hard to turn a nice profit when your giving 70 free points to the book.
This week I had:
Syracuse: They are +15. They tun it over inside the 5 twice and Cincy gets a TD on a botched FG attempt where 3 offensive linemen are 10+ yards down field( shoulda been flagged).
Northwestern (+17) is tied with PSU at halftime and moving the ball at will. Their QB goes down on the first drive of the second half and they don't score another point. Lose by 21.
Nebraska (-12.5) leads Baylor 20-3 in the 4th. Baylor gets the pick 6 to cover 20-10.
Just another week.

It's been brutal this year. My latest bad beat was Fresno St giving up a 59 yard bomb to end the game and fail to cover. It's been the same practically all year....I'm still waiting for my luck to turn. It has on a few occasions in the NFL but zip in NCAAF. GL

Kap, I was on Nebraska pretty big and that 2H was just brutal....after a 20-0 half time lead they fail to score and then they give up that int for a TD

Yea it sucked. I kept hoping Zach Lee would be put in. This new guy isn't the answer for them. It was freaking Baylor and they managed 11 first down's.

indiana.... i had it at 17.5 and bought it to 18 for one of my biggest plays of the year. it pushed, which is better than most who were on indiana....but god it hurt. especially after this losing week for me... that win would have put me well into the positive.
last week = unc, mich st....and to top it all of the miami dolphins meltdown
this week = indiana
i guess you could say that is improvement from last week to this week. hahaha

Yeah, just brutal weekend. I'm UCF alum, at least they pulled out the miracle win tonight. Looks like they should go bowling this year. No money on game, but small consolation prize.
