Week 11 Games

Projected score from the model; Vegas line and total beside it. A pick is targeted when the model differs from Vegas by 5+ points on the spread, 7+ on the total, or 5+ on a team total. All times Eastern. Select a team for its profile.

Board.

Every bet placed this season, graded. Performance to date in units.

51+
Probability.

The chance each team scores 51 or more this week, with the fair odds that implies.

Top probabilities

Projected points come from the regression on team offense, opponent defense, pace and home field; the probability comes from the curve fit to actual 51+ results. Implied odds are the fair price with no vig. Spread and total are the Vegas lines, with the spread shown from that team’s side. Select any team for the reasoning, the matchup, its schedule and its 51+ history.

How the probabilities are built

Each team’s number comes from two steps, both fit to this season’s completed games. The figures below are the model’s current values.

Step 1 · Project the pointsWhat each input adds to a team’s projected score

Step 2 · Turn points into a chanceHow often teams projected at each score actually reach 51

Worked example
Reading the columns

    The three criteria

    Every scheduled game gets one point for each cut-off it meets, so a game scores from 0 to 3. Ratings are on a points scale: offense is rated points scored, defense is rated points allowed.

    How it's tested

    Two separate checks, both run on this season's completed games where both teams are rated.

          The watch list

          Projections use ratings as of the Nov 9 workbook and will move as more games are played, so games can enter or leave this list. Vegas lines for these weeks are not in the workbook yet. Kickoff times are shown where the schedule has them.
