Indiana +17.5 LOSER

Indiana +17.5 LOSER LMAO!!!!!!!!! Wake up from a nap at halftime to watch Iowa waltzing into the endzone on a 3rd down with 1 minute to go. Announcers were even rubbing it in, saying how improbable a blow-out was! WOW. IU tickets done in flames. Ok, I'm done.

If you're thinking about doing it - don't. Suicide is never the answer. 1-800-273-TALK

part of my what a shame series volume 5. with 2 mins left and 1 time out for hoosierville iowa runs out the clock right? im sure lots of parlay cards are available to kill the books after that one stayed alive

Not only the miraculous birrage of long, quick strike plays, but the referees JOBBED the Hoosiers repeatedly. Refs were responsible for TWO Hoosier touchdowns coming off the board. That game was one of the more poorly officiated games I've seen in a season with a lot of bad officiating to begin with.

Unless you watched that one, I don't think you'll be able to appreciate my misery. Again, I'm done.

I feel your pain, hang in there!!!

That one had to be seen in its entirety to be fully appreciated. I didn't have a position, but it looked to be a very good spot for the Hoosiers (has Iowa beaten ANYONE by more than 17?). It all came unravelled when, leading 21-7 mid 3Q, IU was in a spot to ice it, facing 3rd and goal from the 5. The QB was hit as he threw, the ball careened off a DL's paw, an OL's face mask, the QB's forearm, another DL's shoulder, then a LB housed it, 21-14. IU marched right back and answered with TD pass, but replay official screwed them, then they missed FG. Iowa tossed int then IU hit FG, 24-14. After Iowa drive kept alive by bogus pers foul pen, Iowa hit long TD pass, and the rest is history... HISTORICAL bad beat for Hoosier backers. The kind that can not only make you want to quit betting, but also quit living. Like I said before, don't. Look at it this way, you NEVER have to apologize for a lucky win, ever again!

But it sure sucked to lose by the hook on that one!

It was quite a game. The refs made three horrid decisions on reviews, all against IU. One that wasn't mentioned was an Iowa thrown ball for first down touches the ground before possession, it's reviewed, and stands as a completed pass. This game REALLY looked fixed from the zebras standpoint.

On a day when I had New Mex St +44' and lost by 45, Indiana +17' to lose by 18 just ... kind of ... fits.
