Would you like it more if games were official pointspread wise after regulation-NO OT

Iceman · Jan 4, 2009

So for example my under 142.5 Northern Arizona bet today. The game ends tied 57-57 after regulation play for a total of 114. So it would be a winning ticket for under bettors (and winner after 1 overtime still).

I know this stuff evens out but it hurts a little when you have a 8 point dog who gets outscored by 10 in overtime. I know everyone has been on the end of a total that doesnt have a shot but goes over after 1 (or in my case 2, LOL) overtime.

I have heard this discussion on here before. Do you think it would be better if games are graded after regulation time?

Would it be more fair to do it this way?

Fair for who?

So if you had a team in football at -3, you want that game graded a loser after regulation?

I've always hated the inherent value to over/ favorite players because of OT. This coming from someone who plays unders/ dogs far more often than not.

surprised an "in regulation" option has never developed.

For totals? I agree. Sides? No.

Books would love that. Favorites usually cover in OT.

always thought over / unders should be graded at the end of regulation.

Sounds like a good prop for any book if worded correctly...

They should give you the option, like in hockey.
