Sportsinsights is predicting line will go to 2.5 with 81% confidence. Would be curious to know how they come up with that.
Me too. I assume some algorythm but I would like to know what the variables are.
I know a lot of data-driven tools usually seem as fallabile as the rest of us. At 538 the guys even acknowledge that, while they give their own lines for games, the tell people it is not statistically speaking, worth tailing them.
And on Oddshark there is always a CPU predicted score. I don't know where it comes from, but i don't pay much attention to it, just because without knowing the variables, trusting that is no different than just following a hunch.
And if they have some great record, they aren't mentioning it (I don't think OddShark makes the score, it may be contracted from another site -- I am not sure -- if Oddsharks tries to sell picks I have never noticed.
