Nasty Picks

A pick posted here stays here until kickoff and is graded at the number we posted. Each one says where it stands at today's line.

Sniff of Nasty

NFL: FPI and Massey and nfelo have seen the last games, Sagarin hasn't. These leans come from the systems that have rebuilt. Nothing here is a pick yet; the full board lands when every system has updated, usually Tuesday morning for college. If you like a number now, this is your head start.

Nasty Dogs

No dog worth the price this week.

Damn Near Nasty

Nothing close. The books have this slate right, and Buck says so.

Buck's Take

Cleared the bar: 2 games made it this week. They're up top.

Worth a look: Nothing this week. Where the sources agree they agree with the market, and the rest is noise.

Where we stand: A Nasty Pick needs the edge after the price, every system on the same side, at least 4 books making the market, and somewhere we can bet it. Stale numbers switch on inside 48 hours of kickoff.

Moved since the last run: Down: Memphis at Boise State (Not Nasty, was A Little Nasty · Over).

Best of the rest:
Jets at Titans. Over 38.5 -110, 3.4% after the price. Totals are leans here, never picks.
San Diego State at UCLA. San Diego State +11.5 -105, 3.1% after the price. Sagarin is the holdout at UCLA by 16.
Broncos at Chiefs. Under 43.5 -105, 3.0% after the price. Totals are leans here, never picks.
Arkansas at Utah. Over 54.5 -110, 2.6% after the price. Totals are leans here, never picks.
Packers at Vikings. Under 46 -105, 2.5% after the price. Totals are leans here, never picks.

A Little Nasty, Over 50.5. SP+ and Massey say over by 2.3 points, which is a lean, not a bet: the totals model is still proving itself. On the side, market says Texas A&M by 14.5, we say Texas A&M by 15. Nothing there.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Arizona +7.5 · -104 at TOM. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.

Weather at kickoff: 7 mph wind, 85°F.

Across the books: opened -7.0, now -7.5. The market has moved 0.5 away from Arizona, so the number is better than it was, but a move against the ratings usually means news. Check the injury note before taking it. It crossed 7 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Kalshi thin: Arizona Wildcats ML, only $138 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

TOM: total 48.0 here against 47.5 consensus.

BetRivers still has Arizona +8.5 while Pinnacle is at BYU by 7.5.

MoneylineWisconsin Badgers MLpriced at 99 cents, outside the band where the risk and the model are both reliable

Line move: spread has moved 1.2 toward Wisconsin Badgers since 09-08 16:04.

The line is -38.0. Rating differences overshoot on games this lopsided, so whatever gap shows up is arithmetic rather than insight.

Only one model disagrees with the market on the side. A lone dissenter is usually the one at fault.

A Little Nasty, not rated

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is the Under 57.0 · -108 at TOM. The totals model is still proving itself.

Weather at kickoff: 0 mph wind, 81°F, 82% chance of rain. Total pulled down 1 for it.

Across the books: opened -30.0, now -33.5 (the market moved 3.4 toward Auburn).

Kalshi thin: Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles ML, only $201 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

The ratings sit 14 points off the market here. A gap that big usually means a rating is stale, not that the market is wrong, so the number is discounted.

TOM: spread -34.5 here against -33.3 consensus.

The Receipts

Every call the board made, graded on what it said at kickoff. No edits, no deletions, no "we had that one."

How the last picks finished

Graded off final scores, one unit a play.

9 picks voided, not graded, not counted. Posted for Sep 12 on ratings that hadn't seen the previous weekend's games, before the stale-ratings rule went in on Sep 8. When the ratings rebuilt they were no longer picks, so they were pulled before kickoff: Michigan State Spartans (spread), Michigan Wolverines (moneyline), Arkansas Razorbacks (spread), Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (spread), Ohio State Buckeyes (moneyline), Minnesota Golden Gophers (moneyline), California Golden Bears (moneyline), Texas A&M Aggies (spread), San Diego State Aztecs (spread).

Four seasons, measured

Every FBS game with a closing line, 2022 to 2025: 5,814 games. The bets below are graded against the close, with no prices, so 52.4% is break-even at -110. These numbers set the rules; the live record above is what tests them.

Why ratings totals are leans, not picks. We built a totals model from pace and per-play efficiency using only what was known before each kickoff, 2022 to 2025, 3,751 games. Betting it whenever it was 3+ points off the closing total went 1177-1044, 53.0%: break-even, with two of four seasons under it, and it missed final scores by more than the market did. The closing total is the sharpest number on the board. The totals bet that's measured to work is the stale one above, where a book hasn't moved with the market.

Margins land on 3 about 3.0x and on 7 about 3.0x as often as the numbers either side, which is why a half point through those numbers is priced the way it is.

Not every source loaded: TOM's page was saved 20 hours ago, so its prices may have moved. Check anything it's the best number on.. Anything that depends on those is missing from the board rather than guessed at. 2 games further out are not being priced yet: the ratings rebuild after this weekend, and betting a number we know is about to change isn't worth doing.
Next picks

Monday, once the ratings rebuild on this weekend's results. 2 games further out are waiting on those numbers, the first of them thu 17 sep, 6:30 pm. We don't price a game against ratings we know are about to change.

We read 103 games across 12 books, priced every moneyline, spread and total, and cross-checked them against three rating systems. 22 were worth a second look. 2 cleared every check.

What's changed since 2:18 pm

  • NewBuffalo Bulls at Florida International Panthers is now a pick: Buffalo Bulls +10.5 at -115.

Where the money went

Numbers that walked one way and stayed there. We can't see betting percentages, so this reads direction instead: the public backs favourites, so a line moving toward the underdog is money coming from somewhere else.

What the results are teaching us

Every game we price gets graded once it finishes, whether or not we backed it. That's about a hundred measurements a Saturday instead of three, so the model can be checked in weeks rather than months. 5 finished so far, and it takes twenty before any of it means anything.

The line archive

Every book's price, saved on every run. 137790 prices banked. Books that move most are usually the ones reacting to money rather than setting the number.

A number moves 0.87 points on average between when we first see it and kickoff. That's the size of the prize for getting a good number early, and the size of the risk in taking one too early.

How current the ratings are

None of these publishes an update time, so this is measured rather than reported: how long since the numbers themselves last moved. Early in the season they're mostly preseason projections whatever the date says.
