Wouldn’t it at minimum have to be 1.5 points either direction?

Not at all. Suppose the Archangels are playing the Barbarians, and the spread is A +1 to win over B. If A wins by 1 point, then it is a push and the gambler gets their money back. If A wins by 2 or more points, they win the bet. If the game is a tie, or if B wins, then the bookie keeps the bet.
