I was in Vegas since Thursday. My flight landed about midnight last night. Didn't have many opportunities to charge my phone during the day so I didn't spend much time checking the TD threads.

Won a few bets at the sports books though

Wish I coulda seen the tribute thread.

I play a weekly card and went 3-1 using your system. Illinois +7 vs Wisconsin was the only loss. Unfortunately, I need to go undefeated to win $,,,

Just play them all separate.

Illinois was a tough one. They went up 13-10 in the 3rd quarter and melted down after that

I did well with your simulations Sunday well. When will you be putting them out this week? Suggestions on early lines too, do you have any favorites?

Here are the Week 9 Sheets: LINK

Upgraded them to Sheets 2.0.

Changes:

1. Dropped The Delta/Combined prediction methods, as I never used them

2. In their place I added the averages of the 3 methods and the standard deviation of the 3 prediction methods. After research I found a correlation between a low standard deviation and my model being correct on the prediction. This obviously makes sense. If all 3 methods are close to each other in predictions, ideally the more likely the outcome will be close to the prediction.

So that's a new twist to my sheets. If the standard deviation is low, the more seriously I would take the my model's prediction for that game.

Here are additional plays I added tonight:

I've been out of town the last two weeks, so I haven't watched any games. Probably will ease back into things this week, and will probably tail a couple of you geniuses too. Thoughts:

Ole Miss -7.5 a trap? I thought this would be at 10-11. But I guess early start, road game...
I think A&M bounces back vs. SC, but 16.5 seems like too many points.
Cal +6 at home vs. team that just had a huge home upset. Only question is... is USC just that much better now without Sark?
Tell me why I shouldn't take Virginia +6 at home?
I've had a really bad handle on Georgia this year. Tell me why some of you are all over them this week.
So I guess it's no secret Houston is good this year. But should they be laying 12 to Vanderbilt?

Yes

I agree, my model says A&M covers, but I held off just because my "situational awareness" vetoed the play. In a vacuum A&M looks good, but locker room issues are causing me to stay away.

I don't think Cal is that good. Their defense is terrible. What did Cal do this year that has everyone all over their nuts? Beat Texas on a missed extra point? I agree that 6 are too many points but the variance in this game is so high I would stay away

quote:

Special teams and turnovers. Virginia is among the worst in the nation in those 2 categories

Simply because they are getting points. Game should be a pickem

No. Vanderbilt was the play at 14. 12 is stay away territory. Under is still a good bet here.

ASU is receiving the overwhelming majority of bets, and the line has increased accordingly.
