The bias is actually in the ranking, not the line.
The line is maths. Stats. If BYU keeps beating the odds, it means there is something about this team that the unbiased models aren't accounting for. They are ranked high because of wins. And I'm glad we reward wins instead of relying on maths to determine rankings. It's actually more fun to foot for a team that outperforms the odds because it hints at intangible strength, like attitude, belief, effort, fearlessness.
