I got a stupid question... what's the line for these plays:

VAN UNDER 5.5 regular time goals ?
CHIC OVER 5.5 regular time goals ?


Anybody help me out here?

I assumed under +500/over -600, since the first two games were over ;

Actually, though, the typical line was around under -125/-130.

Is there a punishment for SS for posting incorrectly ;

20 lashes!

What's the decimal equivalent is what I need I guess. :think2:

 

[X-Files]

-125 = 1.80

-130 = 1.76

etc

Unless someone tells me different...
For grading purposes, I'm using:

VAN UNDER 5.5 regular time goals 1.76
CHIC OVER 5.5 regular time goals 2.10

(-130/+110)
