Some power ratings I use have the games to be off by
W Virg 4 1/2 plus
Pitt 3
W For 3
Buff 6
Xavier 4
Mississ 5
N Iowa 6
Okla 4
Miami O 9
Vandy 3
N O 7
S Car 5
Tulsa 4
OSU 4
Drex 4
UNLV 3
Brad 4
Bay 4
Wyom 4
Some of these teams are Dr Jeckl and Mr Hyde teams and the spread is not as important since they are usually win/lose by 5 or more. ( West Virg) .
Though I do many other things when handicapping it is likely that over half these teams will cover today. I will be using a second power rating in next week. I am working on developing one that has been on the market for a while but we will give it extra data. That extra data will be when a team is likely to play BETTER or WORSE by 4 or more then its norm. The data is not far different then what is used to predict stocks that have short term rises and falls . I use the same thinking processes in sports and found a way to put it to numbers. It is exciting stuff and it works !
Cheers
