Lenses that fire

  • A closing spread a half point off a key number hands the underdog side extra backdoor- cover value that a spread sitting exactly on the key number does not.

    away side 53% on 823 graded games

  • A meaningful rest-days edge before kickoff correlates with a better-prepared, fresher team; back whichever side has the edge.

    home side 51% on 443 graded games

  • Rest advantage of at least three days identifies the better-rested side.

    home side 51% on 443 graded games

  • A team on an extended ATS streak (either direction) is due for mean reversion; the streak itself carries no forward-looking edge once it reaches a genuine length.

    away side 51% on 894 graded games
