Out of 53 games played this past week with a point spread (ESPN Daily Line odds) only 12 covered the spread - underdog or favorites. 23% covered. Recent history has Vegas in the 42-46% range.

Useless info as a predictor but interesting to me who has absolutely no life:)
 

I would venture to say that a lot of bettors made money on the Illinois-Minnesota game.

How could only 12 "underdog(s) or favorite(s) cover the spread?

One or the other has to, unless there were 41 pushes.

Easiest $1000 I have ever made.

I put $350 on the illini early in the week. I knew this game was a loss. I am putting $500 of the winnings on PSU next week.

How and where were you able to find the Illini +385?

I call bullshit.

I would assume almost anywhere.

The Illini were a 6.5- or 7-point *underdog* for most of the week. If he placed the bet when it was +7, it would likely make the underdog a +230 if you bet them to win straight up money line.

Exactly. I only bet money lines. NEVER the spread
