The Point Spread Column

Week of the Home Underdogs

By: Bob Johnson   Date: November 11, 2005

Last week was very unusual in the NFL. Nine of the fourteen games played featured home underdogs. The most surprising result of the week was that only one of the nine home dogs covered the spread although New Orleans "pushed". So, with 9 home dogs on the board they went 1-7-1 ATS. AMAZING! Although Basketball has started, we don't start the BB service until late December. I am logging all the games though, and that will help in the handicapping later.
