Mods if this needs to be moved I understand. I have a tool I use to help me with my "office pool" picks. Its based solely on numbers, it does not account for injuries, weather, suspensions etc... it is meant to be a tool in the arsenal not an end all be all. However, keeping track of how it does will be interesting. I have had it for several years but some weeks I get lazy about keeping up with it. Having a thread should motivate me to keep it updated throughout the season.
I figured if it could possibly help others out then why not post and if folks want to compete against it that might be fun as well. We can keep the thread running through the season. Unlike Alamo, I am far to lazy to keep track of everyone's picks. You will have to keep track of your own picks on the honor system.
Use at your own risk! If you lose your office pool don't blame me....
Because of the two teams that had bye's last week not all teams have four games, so it probably would have been best to wait until next week, but I got the itch to break it out last week and figured I will start posting it this week..
Columns:
Predicted score: What the numbers predict the two teams will do against each other.
Predicted spread: Difference between the scores. High minus low and low minus high.
Live Spread: Opening line listed on ESPN on Monday/Tuesday.
Spread Dif: Difference between live spread and predicted spread. I only list the predicted play.
