when it comes to basketball and football, what's something you guys like to look at? I usually look at average points per game and opponent points per game, along with average margin of victory. Series history really helps with college football and basketball. Most of the time the eye test is the best, by just watching previous games and trying make a judgement on that. Is there any specific stat that has been proven over time to be consistent to help pick winners? I realized sometimes when you dig to deep into stats, they can sway you a wrong way when the sometimes the winning pick is obvious sitting there infront of you
