My question is should I place a hedge bet on the other team so I can't lose. It will reduce my return if my team wins but it will put me in a position to win no matter what.

If you want to guarantee a win, make the hedge bet. If you want to take the chance on having a bigger win, don't make the hedge bet. Nobody can answer this FOR you, they can only say what they would do.

If it were me, I would make the hedge bet. But I like the idea of locking up a guaranteed win and STILL having an interest in the outcome.

The math, however, says to avoid the hedge (assuming the teams are pretty much even)...
