This means the sheet does not like you. It thinks you are going to lose against teams that out perform thing. That means teams that are pass heavy, and thus run up scores more, tend to be more strongly favored in the spreadsheet than others.
Which is a real statement to how a team like Ohio Valley is playing for them to be ranked so high despite being a running team.
The thing is the Hollows have scored more pts and given up less than the teams average most of the time. I still don't understand how it projects us not to win another game, that is just unrealistic.
