Nasty Picks

Nothing's made the Cut yet. Stale numbers switch on inside 48 hours of kickoff.

Sniff of Nasty

College: FPI and Massey and Sagarin have seen the last games, SP+ hasn't. A preview, not a rung: built on the systems that have rebuilt, before the last one has. Nothing here is a pick and nothing here goes in the Receipts. Each game gets its real rung when every system has updated, usually Tuesday morning for college. Strongest first: the tag on each row is what the fresh systems would call it. 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.

A Little Nasty

Sneakies. Not full-blown winners. If you want action, this is where I'd go. Dashed line: the Nasty Number. Dot: where the market is now.

Broncos at ChiefsUnder 43.5should be 42.3 · getting 1.2 ptsMon 7:15pm Buck's case ›

Buck's Take

Nothing's nasty enough Monday. Nasty is a standard, not a mood.

A little nasty, if you want action: 5 sneakies, Virginia at West Virginia West Virginia +10 the strongest at 4.9% after the price. For the couch, not the mortgage. The one moving our way is UAB at Louisiana, Over 56, down 2.5 since the open.

If you're playing one, keep it a sneaky: Virginia at West Virginia, West Virginia +10. Bet it like you'd lose it, because you might.

A Little Nasty, Under 43.5. Massey say under by 4.1 points, which is a little nasty, not a bet: the totals model is still proving itself. On the side, market says Chiefs by 2, the Nasty Number says Chiefs by 2.5. Nothing there.

Chiefs -2.0 · -110 at TOM

Covers 53 in 100 by the Nasty Number. Needs 52 to break even. Too thin for the price.

Not Nasty

We make it 57 in 100 to win. The price says 57. Nothing there. On Kalshi that's 57 cents fair, a play under 52.

Not Nasty

the Under 43.5 · -110 at TOM

Massey projects 40. Weather takes 1 off. That's 4.1 points under the market.

A Little Nasty, not rated

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is the Under 43.5 · -110 at TOM. The totals model is still proving itself.

Weather at kickoff: 13 mph wind, 88°F. Total pulled down 1 for it.

Across the books: opened -3.0, now -2.0. The market has moved 0.6 away from Chiefs, so the number is better than it was, but a move against the ratings usually means news. Check the injury note before taking it.

Also out: Jimmy Holiday (WR, Chiefs), Jeff Caldwell (WR, Chiefs), Caleb Lohner (TE, Broncos) and 7 more.

BetUS still has Chiefs -1.0 while BetOnline.ag is at Chiefs by 2.

Across the books: opened -13.5, now -7.5 (the market moved 6.0 toward Houston). It crossed 10 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Kalshi thin: Over 53.5, only $125 available; Texas Tech Red Raiders ML, only $422 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is the Under 59.0 · -110 at TOM. The totals model is still proving itself.

Weather at kickoff: 0 mph wind, 92°F.

Across the books: opened +2.5, now +3.0. The market has moved 0.6 away from Ole Miss, 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 3 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Kalshi thin: LSU Tigers -3.5, only $4 available; Over 58.5, only $3 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

TOM: total 59.0 here against 58.6 consensus.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Rice +9.5 · -110 at TOM. A coin flip, the better half of it.

Weather at kickoff: 10 mph wind, 90°F.

Across the books: opened +10.5, now +9.5. The market has moved 0.9 toward Rice, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking. It crossed 10 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Kalshi thin: Rice Owls +9.5, only $459 available; Under 43.5, only $361 available; Rice Owls ML, only $320 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

TOM: moneyline +282 here against +325 consensus.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Browns +9.0 · -115 at TOM. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.

Weather at kickoff: 6 mph wind, 86°F, 25% chance of rain.

Across the books: opened -6.5, now -8.5. The market has moved 1.9 away from Browns, 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: Under 41.5, only $278 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

Backup QB out: Taylen Green (Browns), Out. Not the starter, so no hold.

A Little Nasty

Raiders to win · +252 at TOM

We make it 33 in 100 to win. The price says 28. That's value. On Kalshi that's 33 cents fair, a play under 28. This is a price bet, not a pick to win: Raiders loses this more often than not. The payout is what's mispriced, so expect to lose most of these and come out ahead on the ones that hit.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Raiders +7.0 · -114 at TOM. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.

Across the books: opened -9.5, now -7.0. The market has moved 2.3 toward Raiders, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking. It crossed 7 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Backup QB out: Aidan O'Connell (Raiders), Out. Not the starter, so no hold.

A Little Nasty, not rated

If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is the Over 44.0 · -110 at TOM. The totals model is still proving itself.

Across the books: opened -1.5, now +1.5 (the market moved 2.8 toward Panthers).

Kalshi thin: Under 44.5, only $0 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

Backup QB out: Haynes King (Panthers), Out. Not the starter, so no hold.

QB out: Tua Tagovailoa (Falcons), Out. Priced at 2.5 points off Massey, so the number here already carries the backup.

Also out: John Metchie III (WR, Panthers), Ja'Tavion Sanders (TE, Panthers), Ethan Onianwa (OT, Falcons) and 3 more.

TOM: total 44.0 here against 43.6 consensus.

See which ones

8 posted before the stale-ratings rule. 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: Eastern Michigan at Michigan State, Michigan State -16.5; Arkansas at Utah, Arkansas -11.5; Tennessee at Georgia Tech, Georgia Tech +13.5; Ohio State at Texas, Ohio State ML; Mississippi State at Minnesota, Minnesota ML; California at Syracuse, California ML; Arizona State at Texas A&M, Texas A&M -14.5; San Diego State at UCLA, San Diego State -11.5.

1 under the edge bar. Posted for Sep 12 from a stale number at the book that showed under the 3% edge bar at the price. Stale-line picks weren't held to the same bar as every other pick until Sep 10, so it was pulled before kickoff: UTSA at Texas State, Texas State +1.0.

1 rejected by the audit. Logged for Sep 12 by a build whose own audit then rejected it (a small-school total, which is never a pick). The bet-log entry is void; the game is tracked as A Little Nasty instead: Lindenwood at Missouri State, Under 54.5.

Why ratings totals are a little nasty, 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.

Positive means we got a better number than the close. It's the earliest honest read on whether the picks beat the market.

The head start: 3 Sniffs of Nasty, then the real rung

A Sniff of Nasty is the read from the systems that have rebuilt, before the last one has. This is what the market did between that read and the day the game got its real rung: 1 of 3 moved our way, average +0.1 points, and the full board kept the side 1 time, flipped it 0, went quiet 2. Not a record; nothing here is graded.

How Nasty Picks works

Nasty Picks finds the bets worth making on the college football and NFL board, says why, and grades every one in public at the number it posted.

Four ingredients go in the Nasty Sauce. The Sauce makes the Nasty Number. The Nasty Number has to make the Cut to be a Nasty Pick. Every Nasty Pick goes in the Receipts.

The Four

SP+, FPI, Sagarin and Massey for college. nfelo, FPI, Sagarin and Massey for the NFL. Four opinions, none of them ours.

The Sauce

The Four blended toward the market, because the market has already read them. Ratings get 30%, the market 70%.

The Cut

3% edge after the price when the Four all price the game and agree. More when fewer do. Under it is Damn Near Nasty, or a sneaky.

The Receipts

Every ticket cashed at the number it was written at. No edits, no deletions. Voids say why.

Then the tools: build detail, the funnel, what moved, the line archive, ratings freshness, and the bet log.

91 priced · 26 a little nasty · audit: 1 problem

The audit found 1 problem at Mon 10:33am. New picks are held off the record until the next clean build; everything posted before stands. page: a total printed as 52.6, not to the half point

We read 91 games across 11 books, priced every moneyline, spread and total, and cross-checked them against the Four. 16 were worth a second look. nothing made the Cut, which happens.

Since 10:18am

Nothing has moved.

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

Graded from every game we priced, not just the ones we backed.

0%Best weight on our ratings

105Games graded

The market's own number is as good as anything we can make from it so far. That argues for leaning on the price and hunting stale lines rather than backing our opinion.

Who predicts best

Average points missed against the real margin. Lower is better.

Does the score sort anything?

Every game we priced, grouped by the score we gave it, and how often the side we leaned actually covered. If the rate doesn't climb with the score, the ranking isn't working.

The line archive

Every book's price, saved on every run. 448118 prices banked. Books that move most are usually the ones reacting to money rather than setting the number.

A number moves 1.11 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.
