NCAA B’Ball continued
First things first on a few issues. The random Matrix web site hit the money with the Samford pick. Well done! So I won 15 bucks betting against a team that up until yesterday I didn’t know had a Division I program. People might call that a little nutty to be betting money on something like that. And to that I say, please meet my gambling insane roommate who did a three team round-robin bet with the top 3 teams that the web site he never had heard of recommended. And he hit all three.
For those who are interested in riding the hot streak the link is this.
I am slightly confused at the layout, they offer two sets of picks, one using “Decision Tree” model and one using “Similar Games” model and I haven’t looked into things enough to figure exactly what the hell they are talking about but me and V used the Decision Tree model last night, and if you go with that you’ll be taking Wash St tonight. Take that for what it’s worth.
Second, there a chance this site has subscribers. Recently there was a comment from “Paul.” Paul notes…
“I’ve been reading this website for a little while now and I think that (Pat’s) cockiness is getting the better of (him). Maybe (Pat) should take it down a notch.”
That’s right, it’s ffffffffffffFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAANNNNN MAIL!
How do you even find this site? This is exciting! Paul’s problem with me is based on his idea that through this Project I am trying to show I have more savvy than Vegas. But the real main issue with the College Basketball thing is just trying to keep myself current. If it wasn’t for this thing I wouldn’t know that Marist is just as horrible this year as they were last year, 0 wins in real life and ATS. Let’s see how Vegas did last night…Murray St 74 E Kentucky 72, Arizona St 54 Baylor 68, Rider 88 Manhattan 59, Mercer 67 Belmont 89, UCLA 76 Kansas 77, Oral Roberts 71 Western Illinois 58. Looking back I think I messed up and there wasn’t a spread on the Mercer Belmont game. I’ll update the stats and such if I was wrong. With what we got, ATS…
- Home teams were 2-3
- Ranked or ranked higher teams were 1-1
- Favorites were 3-2
Moving forward…
- Portland (+3.5) @ Montana
- Niagra (-6.5) @ Marist
- North Dakota (+10) @ Idaho
- UAB (+3) @ Georgia
- Canisus (+8.5) @ Iona
- St Joseph’s (+19) @ Villanova
