Bonedaddies Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 If you have an NFL bet with a sports book, and the game goes into overtime, what is the highest point spread that you could COVER? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) The largest margin of victory in a NFL OT game is 6 points, since no XP is tried in OT. So you can cover 5 1/2 points and win. edit: WRONG The largest margin of victory in a NFL OT game is 9 points (The team with an opening FG then scores a def TD), since no XP is tried in OT. So you can cover 8 1/2 points and win. Edited January 12, 2018 by Big John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansFan Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 8.5? First team gets a field goal then a defensive touchdown for 9 points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonedaddies Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 I thought there might be a few more 5.5 or 6's early, not sure it happened yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
