I was wondering something yesterday: How has Auburn performed against the spread this season? Yes, Auburn has covered in each of its games so far, one of three FBS teams that has covered each week. But I wondered: by how much has Auburn covered? If I looked at “covering margin” the way we typically look at “winning margin,” what would that look like? If I tracked the cumulative covering margin from game to game each season, what would it be? More importantly, how does this compare to previous Auburn seasons? I call this Vegas Margin - it’s something I’ll track (unless we quit covering, then I’ll probably ignore this until next season) the remainder of this season.
Vegas Margin!
