Point Spread Point spread bet is a wager on which team/player will win the match/game according to a point spread. A point spread is a number created by oddsmakers to determine the gap between the favorite and the underdog of a game, as teams and players are not all equal in skill. The favorite will have negative points while the underdog will have positive points.
Taking the under / points seems to be the way to go - but saving up my remaining funds to go out with a bang on tomorrows Oregon/OSU game along with a small play on Arizona State ML.
