Bad Beat: Ole Miss' meaningless 3-pointer crushes Michigan State backers in Sweet Sixteen

Friday night's Sweet Sixteen matchup between No. 6 seed Ole Miss and No. 2 seed Michigan State produced an all-time comeback by the Spartans — and an all-time bad beat for Spartans bettors.

While Michigan State won outright, 73-70, after facing a 10-point deficit, a meaningless three-pointer from Ole Miss' Matthew Murrell as time expired wiped out a win against the spread. The Spartans 3.5-point favorites and attracted a vast majority of all bets and all money at BetMGM.

As of Friday morning, 79 percent of all wagers and 85 percent of the handle was on Michigan State, making this a horrible beat for the public and a great game for the books.

Take a look at how crushing the buzzer-beater was. Murrell's heave clanked off the back of the rim before dropping through the net as if taunting the gamblers who were paying close attention to it.

Absolute nightmare fuel for bettors everywhere.
