00:07 with limited knowledge of what the team is going to look like in the next season.
00:11 Particularly now with the vast overhauls that teams do now in the transfer portal,
00:17 teams look completely different the next year than they did the previous year.
00:21 So these betting sites go basically on how the teams did the previous year and set the win total that way.
00:29 And it's really hard to tell how these teams are going to do.
00:32 So betting that the team is going to win more than the line is really a tough proposition
00:40 because it's hard to say how these teams are going to play out once the season begins.
00:46 And how the team will do late in the season versus early in the season when they're still trying to figure things out
00:52 is really a tough, tough prediction.
00:55 You can tell much better after they play a couple of games in that season.
00:59 I mean you can have a general idea of how the teams are going to stack up just based on how they did the previous season,
01:06 but that's really all you have to go on.
01:08 You can go on who they acquired in terms of transfer portal stuff.
01:13 So it's really hard to say what will happen in the next season.
