What A Brutal Loss For Rutgers Bettors

[griswold]

STaylor,

Calm down. You forget the refs called a devastating holding penalty on South Florida that took a touchdown off the board and made them go 16, rather than 6, yards for the late score.

Also, SF was in complete control of the game until a very bad turnover with less than 5:00 left in the third quarter.

Both teams had breaks. There's lots of games Saturday. Maybe you'll catch a couple of breaks in them.

Griswold: come on man. That hold they called on USF was definitely the right call. The DE burned the tackle and he had no choice but to take him down to keep him from sacking the QB. That was a no doubter.


Of course in my heart of hearts I don't think the game was actually fixed. And I get good breaks all the time (I was one of the lucky doofuses who had Ohio St. -16 last Saturday). I am just pissed off about that game because Rutgers had the cover in hand easy and there was a whole series of unlikely events (starting with the RIDICULOUS noncall on the penalty against Brian Leonard) that led to that cover. So I was pissed off about losing my money. So what? Why shouldn't I be? That was a B.S. cover. No one will convince me otherwise.

I'm tired of people saying USF was controlling that game. What are you guys talking about? Rutgers completely dominated the first 25 minues of the first half. most of the 4th quarter, and their running back ran for over 200 yards!!!!

Rutgers should've covered the spread. End of story. On to Saturday.

so if i had rutgers, and had penn st last saturday... and have been on a slump since going 9-3... is there a sign for me to hang it up?? I cant take the back and forth and the brutal losses. I am not counting the 3 games I lost on an missed extra point, and 2 pushes (ND one of em... ) by missed xp....Just dont get it.

Im still u p may lay the rest of my + money tomorrow and withdraw original deposiut of it fails...lol

I was just pissed off (and still am) that they ALL happened in succession in about a 2 minute stretch that gave South Florida a bullshit backdoor cover and cost me MONEY. That's why I'm upset. Is that hard to understand?

If you get that upset over a loss than you are betting too much money. Lots of strange things happen in lots of games.

You are naive if you really think a nationally televised game was fixed. Too much exposure.

I agree with this post, and your previous posts, as well as sandman and gris.......

I saw Oklahoma literaly get robbed of a victory, and till this day, no OKIE fan has hollered FIX---Bad calls maybe, but not fix........

The calls went both ways in that game, and either team could have covered........I call it back door, when a team scores a meaningless TD to cause others to lose spread on game.......

This was a drive, and an attempt to win the game, not just score to fuck up a cover.........

These 2 teams play tomorrow, and I go the same way, S Fla +4, as I had before.......

PS---Ok St, and LSU both on blown calls, replays at that, bad calls, not FIXES.......

Gambling GODS giveth and they taketh, we have a tendency ot remember just the close ones we lose, not the close ones we win..........

Take em in stride, or you'll age young---kapt
