Why the line moved
Why did the Giants vs Seahawks line move?
The spread moved 3.5 points toward the Seahawks (Seahawks -3.5 to Seahawks -7), the side holding 78% of the spread money and 71% of the tickets, so the line and the money went the same way. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (43 to 42.5) even though 78% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 22% of the money and 20% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
