UConn Huskies Point Spreads

Betting point spreads are wagers based on the expectation that a team will win or lose by a certain number of points. Here’s an example:

• Maryland -20.5 (-110)
• UConn +20.5 (-110)

In this situation, Maryland is favored by 20.5 points against UConn. If the Terps win the game by 21 or more points, a $110 wager on Maryland would come with a payout of $100. If the Huskies won the game outright or lost by 20 points or less, the same $110 wager would net $100.

UConn Huskies Over/Unders

Over/under, also called point total, is a wager placed on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers come up with a number and you can either bet the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:

Let's say UConn plays Maryland and the over/under is set at 45.5 points. A wager on the over would require the teams to score 46 total points or more to win. Betting the under is an expectation that the two teams would score 45 points or fewer points.

UConn Huskies Moneylines

Check out this example:

• Maryland -2000
• UConn +980

The minus (-) and plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Maryland the heavy favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think in terms of $10 or $100 increments. A wager on the Terps' odds would mean every $2000 bet nets $100. And it's the opposite for underdogs: Here UConn moneyline was set at +980, meaning a $100 wager would profit $980.
