I want the Saints to win, I think the Colts have a better chance of winning, but the points differential will probably be the determining factor in my choice for the Pool.
what do the points have to do with it?

The difference is 8 points vs. 0 points.

Phil was right. I don't really think about point spreads when trying to pick winners.
