Florida State trailed Clemson on the road by four with the ball at their own 33-yard line and four seconds left on the clock. In an effort to try and make something happen, the Seminoles attempted a series of laterals and passes. After a missed backwards pass left the ball alive at the four-yard line, Clemson was able to scoop and score the late touchdown. Final score: 30-20, Clemson.
It was utterly disastrous, not just for FSU — which fell to 3-5 with the loss — but for some bettors as well.
According to Tipico Sportsbook, Clemson was favored by 9.5 points heading into the game, and the over/under was set at 47.5 points. Before Jordan Travis and FSU got a little chaotic on the final play, those that took FSU +9.5 and the under were sitting pretty.
Not the case four seconds later.
What. A. Finish.
