Home teams that have less then 17% of the money on them cover 57% of the time (that might not be the exact number but it's very close). There was a week earlier this year (where Cleveland covered against Baltimore) where there were three home teams getting big numbers who had no support and all three covered. Millman has been writing about it in his ESPN blog this season.
