Different Angle on Playing Anti-Consensus

[Danny Noonan]

I've been trying a little bit of a different angle on playing anti-consensus teams. I dump the consensus %'s for all players sorted by rotation into a spreadsheet. Then I do the same for the Top 10 players. I take the delta between all players and the top 10, and resort by the delta. I then pick some of the games with the largest difference between the top 10 and all players. It's kind of like in the NFL anti-consensus, you come out with some ugly mothers, like CFla last week.

Yeah, I practice cartography in my spare time.
Good luck today with the Aggies.

For those of you who are interested, there were 6 games where the Top10 %'s minus the All Players %'s was -5% or more at the consensus site I check out. All 6 were winners if you took the anti-consensus team. They were:
Buffalo
ULL
No. Car.
Houston
Alabama
Colorado

Stands to reason that looking for gaps between the Top 10% handicappers and the rest of the handicappers has the potential for pointing to some solid plays. I am going to continue to track these in the upcoming weeks. I will post them in advance next Saturday.
