    need help with pointspread please
    On the sbr lines page, when I go to Point Spread, under info and beside statistics, what is the number a percentage of? for example:

    30% UTAH +2
    70% AIR FORCE -2

    what do 30% and 70% represent? The probability of each team winning or loosing by the given spread? I thought spreads were supposed to be 50/50

      Percentage can mean what the public is on.
      Like 70% of the public is on Air Force to win the spread of minus 2 points.

          But be carefull because sometimes the public can be very wrong and the Underdog(Utah+2) can win the game straight up.
