• The results of week #7 in NFL compared to the prognostication of SPORTS.XLS:
I present now the prognostication of SPORTS.XLS for NFL week 8. This time I include the “wins” parameters as well. How to interpret a line (for those not so savvy in this matter):
A most curious game is :
======================================================================
Home1 Visitor2 1 2 Points1 Points2 Prognostication
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Steelers Ravens 5 1 23.6 11.9 Steels by 11.7
The home team is designated as “1”, the visiting football team as “2”. In the case above, Steelers is “team 1”, Ravens is “team 2”. “Team 1” is favored '5 to 1' in the “wins” category. In other words, 'the odds in favor of a Steelers win are 5 to 1'. Of course, 'the odds against a Steelers win are 1 to 5'.
In the “final predicted score” category: Steelers 23.6, Ravens 11.9 (Steelers by 11.7).======================================================================
Home1 Visitor2 1 2 Points1 Points2 Prognostication
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Redskins Seahawks 3 3 19.5 19.5 Undecided
It is very rare to find a totally equitable game, such as this one. Since a “tie” is also very rare in the NFL, I preferred the term “undecided”. This game is a perfect coin toss…
There is nothing I can do for you, bookies! Nor can I do anything for pay-for sports betting services. A simple spreadsheet is, at least, as effective as the mountain of (not so necessary) data the pay-for betting services offer. Something else is unfair. They never thanked me for SPORTS.XLS!
