This way but as a non gambler but enormous sports fan, so tired of listening to and hearing all about spreads, over under, covers, ect. I can get into sports contest without money being wagered on it. Even worse how much it has penetrated college sports, can’t read article without seeing the spread being part of it. Ok back to tigers being in the elite 8. I think we make it to the final 4.
I could care less about the spread from a gambling perspective, but it is an indicator of what you should be doing to a team because the people in Vegas do pay attention so if you’re supposed to win a football game by 21 and you win by two that’s an indication that either you under performed or the other team overperformed. That’s the only thing I give it creedence for.
