High C


Yes the algo only likes favorites and is extremely high probability (~85%) on 4 years of data for home favorites. In the 4 years of backtesting it has only ever picked a dog once (went 1-0), I use the tier C for fades as that is where the dogs are ~61.7% win rate betting against the pick.

Great questions! Here's how our tier system works:
TIER CRITERIA
Tier A (71.6% win rate in 2025):
• Win Probability = 60%
• Edge = 25 percentage points
• Spread = 14 points
Example: Alabama -6.5 vs Oklahoma
• Probability: 60.0%
• Edge: 26.3pp (our model says 60%, market implies 33.8%)
• Spread: 6.5
• Result: Tier A
Tier Elite (74.7% historical win rate):
• Home picks only, =57% prob, =15pp edge, =10 spread
Tier C (61.8% win rate): Betting the fade here not the pick shown
• =50% probability, =25 spread, doesn't meet A/Elite standards
Tier D: Not recommended (shown for transparency only)

LINE SOURCE & DISCREPANCIES
We pull lines from CFBD API (Consensus or DraftKings) at opening (Tuesday) - they are supposed to update every morning and night but you found a bug and the new files didn't load the tables with new data (working on this fix now)
Why Alabama shows -6.5 on our site but -7.5 on FanDuel:
• Our line: -6.5 (opening line, Tuesday)
• FanDuel: -7.5 (current line, Saturday)
• Difference: Line moved 1 point due to betting action
This is normal! Lines move throughout the week. Always use your sportsbook's current line when placing bets.
Line movement doesn't invalidate the pick - our edge calculation is what matters. A Tier A pick with a 1-point line move is still a strong play.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have other questions.
have now emailed the admins to try and avoid getting the ban ??
Well, that’s a good start to feedback, just checked it and still up on my end
Gotcha, no clue how to contact the TD admins but will look on site, appreciate the heads up as, I didn’t realize I was in violation.

Betting every elite and tier A with 1 U

We shall see how this goes


I play 2U on Tier A and 1U on Elite. Also win rate on Tier C if you take the fade (not the pick shown) is >60% (last week was roughly +83%, went 5-1)

Here is my Tier A for the 2025 season so far:
?? 2025 CFB TIER A RESULTS ??

?? Weeks 1-11 Performance (2-Unit Flat Betting):

? 58 Wins
? 23 Losses
?? 71.6% Win Rate

?? ACTUAL RETURNS:
+59.56 units profit
+36.8% ROI

That's 19.2% ABOVE break-even rate.
Should note Tier A is the one to use as has the best win rate for the season. The Elite (these are derived from a lower Tier B but carved out of the algo has high probability wins) picks are fewer and had by far the best win rate at start of season, only went 50% last weekend on 4 picks. This is like blackjack, betting one hand (i.e. game) is not great, need to play all tier A games for win rate to be obtainable. There are the cases like last week where we went 3-0 on the first 3 games but the data doesn't show that is the case very often.

Another point is since the lines are constantly moving, I update the picks in the morning and evening as in some cases the Tier A picks are right on the threshold of probability / confidence so even a 0.5 move in the worse direction can kick it out of "A" status.

I applied a demo coupon on the backend since you already signed up, won't be charged.
Alright, i created a demo login for anyone to use and try out thru the end of weekend.

Login: TD@quaizimo.com

Hope everyone gets some value out of it is very simple in terms of output but very high win rate thats tested.
Wasn't meant to be a spam, let me setup a trial login for TD that opens it up for the week so I can get true feedback. Will revert back here shortly with community login

Sports Betting AI Algorithm Prediction

Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 11/12/25 at 10:34 am
Put together a weekly college football spread picking site using an AI backtested prediction algorithm developed to help make data-driven CFB game picks. Where better to get honest feedback than the OT!

Site is Quaizimo.com (long post on how the name was decided on but will leave for another day)

Just was tired of using my gut and intuition and what little research I had time for to guess at picks week in and week out so thought if the sharps are using AI to help make educated picks then why can't I. Also tired of seeing free picks, locks, and guaranteed on all these post from so-called experts with no data to support (bit of rant but that is what TD is for).

Crazy part is I have backtested it from 2020-2025 and have a 67.9% winrate (I know it sounds too high but have run this multiple times and in varying verification methods to validate). For reference the best documented sports bettor was ~58% win rate over life.

Win rate for 2025 is 71.7% thru week 12 (one below breakeven week out of the 12) so far on Tier A picks. The picks are highly specific to just spreads for now as totals is not hardened enough to go live.

Any feedback greatly appreciated.

re: Anyone here have cough syncope?

Have this exact same issue with a cough and blurry/almost passing out. Been going on for a month and thought it was just cold, going to dr. this morning as it has gotten worse last few days. Non-smoker.

Are you taking narrow strikes now?


Yes, I am taking normally 5 wide in SPX and 10 wide on NDX (like NDX b/c premiums are a bit higher but have to deal with more intraday price movement).

Today is going to be one of those days were I take a small loss if SPX does come back down late day.

Yes chasing a small credit can be very costly. When I first started 0 DTE's I made the big mistake of presuming my max risk wasn't the full spread (i.e. 5 or 10 wide x 100) but rather it could be managed by rolling for credit and eventually expiring worthless, however as I learned the hard way this is not as easy as "how to video's" would make it seem because have to take the roll early enough to get a decent credit or near zero debit and before you know it can snowball into a larger strike width for same premium. After my big loss in the 1st week of December (where I made some novice mistakes like clicking the wrong expiration date and rolling with wide strike - 15 or 20 plus bull run) I started trading positions assuming I would not roll and accept the loss if it moved outside that range. This happened at end of 1st week of Jan and was due to getting very aggressive on deltas late day and market moving in last hour.

How are you doing with 0 DTEs?


They are definitely, as someone put it, like holding a hand grenade. Beginning December and 1st week in January got absolutely destroyed, once because I learned a valuable lesson that just accepting the loss of the spread is much better rather than rolling up to a larger spread which can get out of control. Especially when market goes on multi day run up. January hit was because I moved deltas up and market got out of std, dev. range. Lately playing around .16 deltas very late morning in NDX as credits are higher.

Will check those out in New Year, thanks! I took an IC on SQ Feb24 today but mostly have played SPX and NDX 0DTE this week at around .15 deltas, decent week with the tighter ranges

Luckily avoided, as well, as was out on west coast field visit and didn't have a chance to enter trades or else I would have definitely gotten caught in the mess.

re: Options Trading Thread

I have done the exact same thing last two weeks, switched to fewer contracts at ~15-20 deltas on SPX and making debit trades on spy, qqq plus amd, gtlb
