No. You have to find the numbers and make the comparisons manually, which is really a time-consuming proposition when you're dealing with 75 college basketball games on a January Saturday.
someone needs a computer program that can handle this. it is too much time consuming to do it manually. maybe justin 7 has a super computer to do this.
please justin put this in a forum thanks
maybe jeff sargain needs to do a weekly version with math done. Justin 7 do you think you could do a SBR video interview with sargain?
It would have to be a daily update if you think these numbers are worth figuring for the NBA, NHL or college hoops.

you'll do about 50% tho...
i'll write a program to do it. how can i share it without violating some kind of rule or TOS?
I've done research on his ratings. For the most part, you'll hit 50% following his ratings. There are some situations where you can follow his ratings blindly, but you'll have to identify those yourself.
thats for football do you have one for basketball
the guy is an MIT math guy so I respect his methods. I coded a little routine that goes out and grabs his ratings and then gets the lines from pinnacle. I outputted the results to a little web page. it shows the matchups, then the pinny line, the Sagarin rating with the 3.98 hometeam edge added in, the final column shows the visitor with the line added (or subtracted if they are the dog) and then next to the home team is a number showing the sagarin adjusted for home team subtracted from the sagarin adjusted by the line for the away team. I guess if you are interested in the results you can PM me and I will send you the link
thanks dude
did you get the link?
well he went 10-9 on Thur nite. i picked three big ones (davidson, pitt, mont) and they went 0-3. on the USA site he tries to explain about connected and unconnected data. apparently he is saying that after they get on into the season that this year's data will predict the ratings. so i guess that means these goofy preseason matchups have to taken with a barrel of salt.
good stuff
