Honestly, I don't know. What I did was add a half a point to the spread as I pulled them off of the website. Since the site lists the favorites first, they are always Team A -XX Team B it appears. Then I did simple math, -7 + .5 and get -6.5.

I don't know if that is right or not, but that is what I did.

Added half a point.

I hope it is OK.

I don't know if we are always consistent but I believe it should be added to the spread so that a tie goes to the underdog.
