I'm not hating here. Mad biggie ups to dude who is 47-27. But this early in the season in CBB, there's just no way a heavy streak of luck hasn't contributed more than a little to that record. 

I've always found that the first two weeks of CBB are just a bit random and haphazard. There are certainly soft lines in there, but if this dude has tossed down 74 plays already, it ain't like he's being terribly selective. 

But, again, biggie ups to dude. Maybe he just knows CBB inside and out.

Maybe the guy is making picks based on data sets that have had success early in the season the last few years. I don't have a clue about the guy I'm just saying that is very possible. I know every single year I tear up the first 5 weeks of college football and then the numbers catch up to me and I have to swap to a different set of criterias. With sites like Kenpom out there now, it would be feasible for someone to do something like this without having to spend weeks to prepare for the season.

Just saying it is not completely illogical, but it could very well be dumb luck too.
