I remember winning an over on a Florida State-North Carolina game when Sam Casell lead FSU to a win over the "whine and chesse guys" and I got, and needed, 26 points in the last minute and 15 seconds.
Of course I also remember losing an over in a Cleveland indians_rangers game when it was 10.5 and the Tribe scored 10 in the second inning.
It all works out in some weird way.
