A weak signal — better than a coin flip, but not by much.
Reading the chart: points below the dashed diagonal are games where the home team entered with the better value; a predictive stat shows more green there and more red above the diagonal. AUC summarizes exactly that separation — 0.50 is a coin flip, 1.00 is perfect.
