Billy talks about other posters not giving write ups and such ...OK
But, i want to know more about this Q factor he uses ? He never explains that .
All I can say is it is based on 10 factors. It's sort of based on the old Jimmy the Greek checklist.
For every category you win an get a check its equal to 2 1/2 points. So if a team has 8 checks to 2 it shows a 6 category lead so 6 x 2 1/2 equals 15 point difference. If the
Home team is from top 5 power conferences they get 4 1/2 points, if from mid major they get 2 1/2 for home court.
So if the Qfactor spread should be 15 and add on conference home court of 2 1/2 or 4 1/2 and Vegas makes line 12 my anti public logic is to play the underdog and take the 12.
I was a software developer and wrote a program that uses all the raw data straight from a data source. So I do nothing. Only time it's a play is if line is 3 1/2 off. 90 % or more games fall into the Catagory of the spread to similar to Vegas line.
Only thing I do is once computer spits out probable picks I make sure on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram that the team I am playing has a player out or problem with team chemistry. Etc.
When I speak of running game 15 times threw an outcome simulator that was a program that my friend wrote that has some value but does not pick enough winners. He had written it in hopes of conquering the under and over on college basketball. Only produced a 56% success rate. He scraped it and I bought it from him.
Good luck. T minus 17 till blastoff.
