Welcome to Bad Beat Breakdown, where, when bad beats happen, we will take you inside to what caused what seemed like a near-lock to go horrifying wrong at the last second.<\/p>\n

For the first installment of Bad Beat Breakdown, we\u2019ll head to Lexington, Ky., where on Saturday night the University of Kentucky hosted the No. 9-ranked University of Florida in a Southeastern Conference college football<\/a> clash.<\/p>\n

Through three quarters, the host Wildcats, who started their second-string quarterback after losing starter Terry Wilson to a season-ending injury the week before, led the Gators 21-10. That was a good score for those who bet the under on total points, which was 46.<\/p>\n

\n

In addition, the Gators saw starting quarterback Felipe Franks, a third-year starter at that, leave the game in the third quarter with what head coach Dan Mullen described as a season-ending leg injury of his own. That meant any comeback would be on the shoulders of backup Kyle Trask.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Trask would lead the Gators on two fourth quarter touchdown drives. Both went for at least 62 yards and needed at least six plays. But none took more than 2:14 off the clock. His 4-yard scoring run with 4:11 left gave Florida a 22-21 lead after a missed two-point conversion.<\/p>\n

That touchdown drive was aided by a controversial targeting penalty called on Kentucky\u2019s T.J. Carter for hitting Trask helmet-to-helmet on a sack that would have set up a third-and-15 from the Florida 44. Replays showed that Trask leaned into the hit. However, officials reviewed the play and upheld the call on the field.<\/p>\n

Kentucky Still Had a Chance<\/h2>\n

The Gators go-ahead score still gave Kentucky plenty of time to get downfield and reclaim the lead. Plus, the Wildcats had all three timeouts.<\/p>\n

UK ended up marching 58 yards to get to the Gators 17 with less than a minute remaining. Facing a fourth-and-1, Stoops sent out kicker Chance Poore for a 35-yard field goal attempt that would give Kentucky the lead and over\/under bettors a near-guaranteed push.<\/p>\n

Speaking of push, that\u2019s exactly what it looked like Poore did on his attempt.<\/p>\n
