OFFICIAL REPORT: College Football, Q1, 2025
4 profitable weeks; 1 losing week. A guide to the attached spreadsheet:
YPP: yards per play. This metric measures the NET yard per play differential between the teams; generally, a 0.1 yard par play difference equals 1 point. A green highlighter means the net yards per play are consistent with a winning bet over time; a yellow highlighter means the net yards per play were within the spread margin; and a red highlighter means the net yards per play were against our side of the pick. The other metrics I use to validate the picks are NET YARDS, as 15 yards of advantage typically equals 1 point; and NET DRIVES, as 40+ yard drives generally translate into a 5 point edge. As you can see, the underlying metrics all show the picks would be successful over time, which bodes well for the remainder of the season for the system.
