Sounds silly, but it’s 30-5 against the spread since 2002. Yeah… wow. The only downside is that this is available about only five times per year. Basically, you bet on a favorite of 6.5 points or more a week before their bye. The thought process behind this is that a good team (if they’re favored by 6.5+, they must be good) will be extremely focused prior to their week off. As usual, let’s look at a coach-by-coach breakdown: |
