I am looking at college lines in ESPN

for example:

Texas A&M at Oklahoma State, 7:30 PM ET Preview »
BODOG.COM
OPEN
66.5 O/U
-3.5

CURRENT
67.0 O/U
-3.5

I think the O/U (over/under?) is the total points scored.
The smaller # determines the favorite. But, how do you read it? In the above example, is it saying that A&M is favored to lose by 3.5 or win by 3.5?

Also, what is the difference between Open & Current?

Thanks!
