you can't trust the numbers on thepredictiontracker.com .... mistakes every day .. today they have UCLA -6.5 on dunkel.. if you go to dunkel it's -10.5. if that number is wrong, what other numbers are wrong ??? if you look at 7overtime : the score they give is the number given on theprediction.com BUT that # does not always match the # if you do the calculation with the rating numbers they give on the same page on the site. yYu have to check your numbers .

no plays show up based on my calculations.. Talisman is finally updated.

 

[locman]

No plays today based on what I'm seeing.

Don't know if I'm splitting hairs here.....

Harvard opened -23 vs Yale
7OT has Harvard -15
Talisman has Harvard -27.3

The two numbers are -8 and -4.3 difference - does the .3 make this a play?:shrug:

There are two other games that hit the numbers, but are considered "bottom 4 conferences" so they are no plays.

Arkansas Pine Bluff -3 vs Alcorn State
7OT has APB +3 and Talisman has APB -9.9 (6 & 6.9)

Mississippi Valley State -8 vs Southern
7OT has MVS +5 and Talisman has MVS -14.3 (13 & 6.3)

unless I misunderstood the system.. I assume both numbers need to be in the same direction for it to be a play.. if 7OT has Harvard by 15 and Talis by 27.3 -- yes, they are both a variance of >4, but in different directions of the line

You assume correctly, Billy Blastoff system states " same direction" in order for it to be a play.

Thank you for the clarification.

Tomorrow (1-23) Memphis -2.5 (BetOnLine) qualifies.
Tigers are listed -7 and -7.5 at the two sites.
I was sort of expecting this earlier today, and there it is.
Memphis has been dodging bullets and I already liked
Tulsa on the merits. I am a Memphis fan.

 

[locman]

As Evvin said, looks like Tulsa is a play. Two others show up:

Mercer PK over Western Carolina (line is now Mercer -2)
Sam Houston St -5' over Abilene Christian -- is this removed due to conference?

 

[Evvin]

Loc,
Mercer shows up on all the betting exchanges.
I think that's what BB relies on, but not entirely sure.

 

[Evvin]

And Sam Houston odds also show up everywhere

 

[locman]

3-0 yesterday. No plays today based on my calculations.

 

[Evvin]

Tomorrow, the two sites have Yale -7 and -9.4 @ Brown.
I could see a possible line at Yale -3 or better.
I expect Yale to win by a whisker. Brown hung with Yale
umtil the final minutes at New Haven last Friday.

will keep an eye on that.. btw, great call on Tulsa - they owned that game wire-to-wire

 

[Evvin]

Horrible loss for the Tigers but a loss was inevitable. But 40 points?
Sheesh!

 

[Destructor D]

Memphis had the worst loss by a ranked team to an unranked team in 27 years per ESPN. I wonder how one complete dud will effect their rankings for the NCAA Tournament?

Thank you Locman, Evvin and others who have contributed to this thread. I am far too lazy and probably not smart enough to apply BB's system, so I very much appreciate not only your research but especially taking the time to share with the rest of us.

We all know there's no such thing as a sure thing, but this system seems pretty impressive, consistent.

Again, many thanks for your work helping all of us too. :0008

 

[locman]

No plays today.

Evvin, double check.. but I'm seeing Yale -5.0 and -9.4.. with an opening line of -6.. making it -1 from 7OT and +3.4 from Talisman.. resulting in NO PLAY.
