What do these numbers mean?
Bookmakers give the weaker team a head start called the line. A team covers when it wins by more than the line, or loses by less than its head start. A push is a tie with the line, so bets were refunded. The total is the bookmakers' line for points in the game; over means the game finished above it. We count the main closing line just before the start, complete seasons only, plus this season so far.
Team history, counted from final scores. Not Bet Better’s picks.
