[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 191644, member: 322"] Just for fun, sort the results on "Against Spread". It seems that the mid-week line is the spread. And very interestingly, the opening spread and updated spread (just before game I would guess) seem to be generally better than the mid-week spread. There may be some leverage (several %) there if you want to place 1000 bets a season with good money management. So to answer the question, I think they get percentage against the (mid-week) line for every game by comparing for every game the mid-week line versus each services prediction. If the (mid-week) line predicts GT will win by 10 and a service predicts we will win by 7, then the service is in effect saying we will lose against the line. If GT loses or wins by 7 or less, the service is right. If GT wins by more than 10 the line gets the win. What happens between a 7 and 10 point win isn't clear to me. Could be split down the middle or a push ....... Just my guess ..... but a good question that I haven't thought about (that I remember o_O). [/QUOTE]
