The Spread Game is here and below are the rules:
If your team is favored, you need them to cover the point spread.
If your team is not favored to win, you need your team to just win OR lose by fewer points than the point spread to advance. If your group advances as an underdog but your actual team loses, your group moves to the next round with a new team!
