I also got Kansas State at 3 -110.

Very disappointing results this year.

Massey is 368-367 so far in CFB this season.

Last year he was 370-391 on the season.

We are only tracking Bowl season, just like previous years.

Right? Going early for two point conversions, not kicking field goals when you’re two possessions down...mind boggling

Finished 19-20-1 last year. Earlier bowls faired better than the bigger match-ups.

12/21

Massey ratings used to Kill the bowls year after year. It would go something ridiculous like 15-4 thru 12/28 or 12/29. but from 12/29 or 12/30 on out it would lose.

Last year he changed the way he did his ratings. It didn't improve his Reg Sn record any. His bowl plays went in the crapper. They went 8-9 thru 12/28. Went 4-0 on 12/29 making it 12-9/
. then went 7-12 or 6-13 from 12/30 on out.

I thought the Massey Rating system said play on an underdog with the higher rated defense via Massey. My notes say to fade this system after christmas.

it was to play the better rated defense in every bowl game ATS and a bit on money line for underdogs

did very well LY but was also the first time i heard about it. something to add into your research but would not play blindly but i doubt you would ever get buried by constantly playing the team with the better defense

fav spread Fresno 9 vs Ariz St 57
fav spread Tulane 59 vs ULL 109
fav spread Utah St 72 vs NoTx 95
dog spread + money line EMU 56 vs Ga So 64
fav spread App St 24 vs MTSU 70

This the program I followed for the past couple of years but you're right come New year's Day I'm going to cut it off.
