Or multiple overtimes. Those pesky overtimes can be brutal on over/unders, because it's so unfair.

I've been playing ESPN.com's Streak for the Cash pretty much since it began; run into that situation at least a couple of times. IIRC I've had that affect one of my picks twice, once when I had the over and ended up winning because it went to OT (an NBA game, which actually went to double-OT but the over hit during the first overtime) and once where I had the under and lost because the over hit during OT (an NCAA basketball game). But college football's OT format is especially rough, because you could easily get a situation like today's Iowa-Iowa State game. I don't know what the O/U was on that one because nobody took it; it might've been low enough for the over to hit during regulation; but there were 48 points scored in regulation and 37 scored in overtime.

Paratroopa's moving on with Colorado's offense coming to life at the end of the third quarter.
