It looks like I should not have made the picks I made last week. Teams that have clinched playoff spots don't appear to try to win any more. Look at the lines for this week they are way out of whack, almost every playoff team is picked to lose no matter who they are playing.
Results to date, NFL 24-13, NCAA 32-29.

I was looking over my NFL PerformanZ Rating to try to determine why they were having a subpar season. Especially in the retro numbers where they usually finish near the top. And I found a really big mistake in my program. I had a mistake or typo that lead to the ratings not taking schedule strength into account for the entire season up to date. That is a big boo boo. At least now that shows me that my ratings do better if they are adjusted occording to schedule strengh.

I still have a lot of work to do to restore the ncaa predictions for the bowl games but I have put up a page based on last year''s layout. It is a start, I will gradually add back the new systems and fill in the blanks.

Last weeks picks went 1-1 for college and pro.
Year to date totals;
NFL: 22-10, NCAA: 32-29
