San Diego State unbelievely covered the spreadout thanks to a ruthless, last-second whistle

March giveth and March taketh away.

Shortly after wagerers were commemorating an unbelievable straight-out success by No. 13 Furman (+200) over No. 4 Virginia — thanks to an mysterious turnover in the last minutes — they were tortured by a horrendous bad beat thanks to a ruthless last-second whistle inbetween No. 5 San Diego State and No. 12 College of Charleston.

A 0.7-2nd whistle, to be accurate.

Here’s what you requirement to understand to feel this gut punch: Charleston was a 5.5-point underdog and infact led for much of the veryfirst half. The Aztecs took control after the break however Charleston stayed within striking range of the spreadout late.

Then a tie-up led to a nasty on Charleston that sentout San Diego State with a four-point lead. It looked for minute like it might’ve been a dive ball, or possibly that time had really ended.

Nope. It was simply another harsh joke by the gaming gods.

A VERY IMPORTANT FOUL 👀

Bettors were, notsurprisingly, in disarray viewing it all play out.
