WOW, I will admit I thought about this play since yesterday and decided to pull the trigger. Typically I do not rely solely on trends as they are typically arbitrary. Different team, different results based on different factors. But I do lend some credence to them in terms of "having a teams number" etc, or doing other different pieces of analysis in which I won't go into here...
But the trends besides hte obvious ones everyone has seen and in my other post, but this one seems to be a gift in getting the points... so I will play it as such.
Toledo 7.0 / -105.0
Here are some of those "other" trends:
Play On - Underdogs of 3.5 to 10 points (TOLEDO) - off a loss against a conference rival against opponent off 3 straight wins against conference rivals.
(30-10 over the last 5 seasons.) (75%)
Play On - Underdogs of 3.5 to 10 points (TOLEDO) - off a road loss against a conference rival against opponent off 3 straight wins against conference rivals.
(23-5 over the last 5 seasons.) (82.1%)
Play On - Underdogs of 3.5 to 10 points (TOLEDO) - after 1 or more consecutive straight up losses against opponent after 4 or more consecutive straight up wins.
(38-13 over the last 5 seasons.) (74.5%)
Play Against - Favorites of 3.5 to 10 points (N ILLINOIS) - off 3 straight wins against conference rivals against opponent off a road loss.
(25-6 over the last 5 seasons.) (80.6%)
Play Against - Any team (N ILLINOIS) - excellent rushing team - averaging 225 or more rushing yards/game, after gaining 5.5 or more rushing yards/attempt in 2 straight games. (54-22 over the last 5 seasons.) (71.1%)
Play Against - Any team (N ILLINOIS) - outrushing their opponents by 60 or more yards/game on the season, after gaining 5.5 or more rushing yards/attempt in 2 straight games. (65-29 over the last 5 seasons.) (69.1%)
If the NIU weren't statistically playing so well, this would have been a larger play, but it did get me thinking so the units were adjusted.
