I jinxed both Playbook and Sports Reporter into a 1-2 so now I'm gonna try to do it to Phil Steele next.
Power Plays is in the middle of about as hot a run as I've ever seen in the newsletters.
Now, this has nothing to do with his star ratings in there, but just the raw numbers of the predicted scores.
NCAA games where Power Plays prediction is 6 or more points diff from the line have gone 45-18 this season including 8-1 this past weekend.
When the diff is 3 to 5.5 it's been the usual loser like most years.

Newsletter Tracking (through 10/14/2024)

**Major update to Gold Sheet this week. I finally separated the picks into their proper categories. (I swear they used to all be "Key Releases" lol) This season, we missed their newsletter for Weeks 2 and 3 entirely, and Week 6 was the issue that had everything but the actual college picks.**

The records here will reflect the lines listed in the newsletters at the time the plays were published. This is for the rated plays, the high-ranking plays, and any type of play worth tracking. There’s no reason to keep track of every bottom-tier or “recommended” play; it’s not worth the work.

Sometimes the newsletters will cheat a little by claiming a different common or later line if it turns a loss into a push or otherwise boosts their record. I’ll usually be able to note what happened to explain the discrepancy. This week several newsletters had picks on Boise. Most won at the early line of -20.5, and only Pointwise pushed at -21.

I’ll also highlight particularly good or bad weekends or short-term runs. I will not include picks from newsletter issues that we don’t get in time.

Starting to color-code the hottest and coldest records. Usually just anything hitting/missing around 70% or more with a reasonable sample.

Marc Lawrence "Betcha Didn't Know 1-4-1" should read, "Betcha Don't Care".
