edit: now that I re-read your post, I'm not sure who you mean when you say "they must win"
I always figured that The bookie always picked who was selected to win that game. But how many leway points.

GB vs TB that the spread of +3.5 ment 7 points total.. Because Ive never heard of 1/2 a point in football
