    Isn't that part of the strategy? Match up teams that will show the fans a good game! i know that is a lot easier to say it than do it - but that would be a real screw job for a team to get in a bowl game against a team they have no chance with.

    Kinda misleading since dog automatically covers if they win. Would be interesting to see stat just for favorites

    Didn't say dogs were 195-22. The takeaway is bet the dog on moneyline and lay points if taking fav.

    I take that stat as the spread is not often relevant. Even as a favorite, if you win you cover the spread. It seems like there's a one-sided scores in bowl games supporting the notion that some teams don't show up for these games. In bowl games, if you like the underdog, just bet on the moneyline. If you like the favorite to win, bet them to cover the spread.

    This is no secret. The S/U winner of a game covers over 80% of the time in the regular season.
