Some epic bad beats (or miracle covers) this weekend. Among them:
State was -5.5 (or -6), was up 28-3 on BC with 2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, despite getting a 19 yard FG (shorter than a PAT) blocked early in the 3rd quarter. AJ Dillon out. Should've been an easy cover. State fumbles twice late and gets a punt blocked. BC closes to 28-23, State ends the game downing the ball on the BC 10 going in.
Dolphins +6 was up 17-3 on the Bengals in the 4th quarter. Essentially, impossible to not cover. Dolphins throw a 4th quarter pick 6 on a pass that ricocheted off the helmet of an Dolphin OL which was directed right to a Bengals DL that was out of play. Then, with 2 minutes to go, the Bengals then get a scoop and score on a sack for the clinching cover -- Bengals win 27-17 with a 24 point 4th quarter.
Arizona Cardinal/SF 49ers under 40.5. Game is 14-12 with 5+ minutes left. Neither team had scored in the last 11 possessions at that point; perfect under play. Cardinals score two TDs in a minute: one on a defensive scoop and score; the second right after a pick set up a short field. Even so, still covering the under by a half point only to have SF score a meaningless TD late. No points for 36 minutes; 20 points in 3 minutes. Ouch.
