I'm still working on an update to my lines, don't think I'll have those ready today. Here are the Power Ratings, plus the new Match Up Grid (MUG Chart). Once you're recovered from the initial seizure from first looking at it, it works like this, lol: Black dots are good, red dots are bad. With Ratings, high numbers are good. With rankings, low numbers are good. The rankings and ratings are based on my own formulations -- they will differ from standard ratings and rankings. Points per yards differentials shows how many points per game a team scores and allows above or below the normal averages for their yards gained and allowed. For some teams it may indicate luck, for others it may indicate good coaching and skill. For what it's worth I don't find any correlation for using it with totals, and only a little when using it for sides. Still, it is information, and the better teams certainly do better in these categories than poor teams, on average. I'm not going to put everything that goes into making my lines in the MUG Chart (actually, almost nothing in the MUG Chart goes into making my lines), because I'm not interested in divulging my line-making techniques. The MUG chart is useful for quick match up comparisons, and useful for referencing when it comes to final decisions on plays, I believe. I welcome comments on it.
