[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 69001, member: 322"] Last year that I saw stats for (2012) Atomic was 74.5% accurate at predicting the winner, while the best system out there was 76.8% accurate. But against the line, Atomic wasn't as good. [url]http://www.thepredictiontracker.com/ncaaresults.php?year=12[/url] Picking against the line is more important when betting is picking against the latest line and that site shows how few systems get more than a percent or two above 50%. Here's how they do the estimating: [url]http://www.knology.net/jashburn/football/af-ratings.html[/url] So they really do predict we will win 9 even though we are favored in 10 games. The problem is that no one can be accurate in predicting how a football team is going to play on a certain day when the skill levels are close. That's why there is such a large variance on what the Vegas line (usually one of the best indicators but really only once you have played a few games in the season and get within a week of game time) predicts and what happens. I wish football results were as predictable as quantum tunneling or radioactive decay. (tic) [/QUOTE]
