Nasty
PICKS
picks with receiptsOPEN
College football and NFL. The bets worth making this week, and the record to prove it.
Best on the board right now
Nothing has made the Cut. The strongest call on the board is A Little Nasty. Small money, our side, no receipt.
Where to bet it
Where, best first (Kennesaw State): FanDuel +3.5 at -124 (1.9%) · DraftKings, Fanatics, BetMGM or TOM +3 at -110 (1.7%) · Kalshi +2.5 at 47¢ (1.6%) · Caesars +3 at -112 (1.3%) · DraftKings Predictions +2.5 at 49¢ on the app (-104 all-in) (-0.7%). Either of the first two is fine.
Buck's Take
Nothing's nasty enough Monday. Nasty is a standard, not a mood.
A little nasty, if you want action: 5 sneakies; the strongest is NC State +4 (Wake Forest at NC State) at 6.9% after the price. For the couch, not the mortgage. The one moving our way is Iowa at Washington, Iowa +3, 1.5 points our way since the open.
If you're playing one, keep it a sneaky: Wake Forest at NC State, NC State +4. The number's wrong and the Four agree. That's the receipt.
Buck
Nasty Picks
Nothing's made the Cut yet. Stale numbers switch on inside 48 hours of kickoff.
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.
Moving our way: Duke at Georgia Tech, Over 49.5. Best number on the board, half a point better than Pinnacle, and the total has come down 1 point since it opened. A total, so it stays a sneaky.

Either of the first two is fine.Sniff of Nasty · Saturday's preview, 23 games from the systems that have rebuilt. Never a pick, never recorded. Strongest: NC State +4, Iowa +3, UNLV +3. Open
Sniff of Nasty
College: FPI and Massey and Sagarin have seen the last games, SP+ hasn't. NFL: FPI and Massey have seen the last games, Sagarin and nfelo haven'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; a college system that still hasn't rebuilt by Tuesday 9am sits out until it does, and its games are priced without it. 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.

Kalshi thin: Troy Trojans -10.5, only $207 available; Under 49.5, only $71 available; Troy Trojans ML, only $98 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

Marked: best for New Mexico State, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is New Mexico State +6.5 · -110 at BetMGM. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.
Weather at kickoff: 3 mph wind, 81°F, 81% chance of rain. Total pulled down 1 for it.
Across the books: opened -4.5, now -6.0. The market has moved 1.4 away from New Mexico State, so the number is better than it was, but a move against the ratings usually means news. There's no injury feed for college, so the move is the warning.
Kalshi thin: Under 45.5, only $496 available; Florida International Panthers ML, only $201 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
TOM: spread -6.5 here against -5.9 consensus.
MyBookie.ag still has New Mexico State +6.5 while Pinnacle is at Florida International by 5.5.

Across the books: opened -1.0, now -3.0. The market has moved 1.9 away from Iowa, so the number is better than it was, but a move against the ratings usually means news. There's no injury feed for college, so the move is the warning. It crossed 3 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.

Marked: best for Tulane, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Tulane +3.5 · -115 at FanDuel. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.
Weather at kickoff: 5 mph wind, 63°F.
Across the books: opened -5.5, now -3.0. The market has moved 2.4 toward Tulane, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking.
Kalshi thin: Under 48.5, only $92 available; Army Black Knights ML, only $223 available; Over 47.5, only $3 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
TOM: total 48.0 here against 47.8 consensus.

Marked: best for California, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck wouldn't. Nothing here is even the better half of a coin flip.
Weather at kickoff: 9 mph wind, 68°F.
Across the books: opened +13.0, now +9.0. The market has moved 3.8 toward California, 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: California Golden Bears +8.5, only $286 available; Virginia Tech Hokies -8.5, only $232 available; Over 53.5, only $327 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
TOM: total 52.5 here against 53.3 consensus.
TOM: moneyline +287 here against +325 consensus.

Weather at kickoff: 10 mph wind, 84°F.
Across the books: opened +10.5, now +10.0 (the market moved 0.9 toward Vanderbilt). It crossed 10 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.
Kalshi thin: Vanderbilt Commodores +9.5, only $390 available; Ole Miss Rebels -9.5, only $43 available; Under 58.5, only $0 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
TOM: spread +9.5 here against +9.8 consensus.

Marked: best for Giants, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Giants +3.5 · -112 at BetMGM. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.
Weather at kickoff: 8 mph wind, 65°F.
Across the books: opened -2.5, now -3.5. The market has moved 0.9 away from Giants, 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: Over 43.5, only $107 available; Under 43.5, only $172 available; New York Giants ML, only $313 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
Backup QB out: Marcus Mariota (Commanders), Doubtful; Jaxson Dart (Giants), Injured Reserve. Not the starter, so no hold.
QB out: Jayden Daniels (Commanders), Out. Priced at 2.5 points off FPI, Massey, so the number here already carries the backup.
Also out: Rachaad White (RB, Commanders), Jaylin Lane (WR, Commanders), Terry McLaurin (WR, Commanders) and 2 more.

Marked: best for Chargers, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Chargers +3.5 · -110 at DraftKings. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.
Across the books: opened +2.0, now +3.5. The market has moved 1.4 away from Chargers, 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: Los Angeles Chargers +3.5, only $249 available; Denver Broncos -3.5, only $150 available; Over 42.5, only $51 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
Also out: Jonah Coleman (RB, Broncos), Brenen Thompson (WR, Chargers), Pat Bryant (WR, Broncos) and 5 more.
TOM: total 42.0 here against 42.4 consensus.

If you're betting it anyway: Buck wouldn't. Nothing here is even the better half of a coin flip.
Weather at kickoff: 8 mph wind, 62°F.
Kalshi thin: Over 45.5, only $30 available; Under 45.5, only $435 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

The Receipts
The cage. Every ticket the board wrote, cashed or not, graded at the number on it. No edits, no deletions, no "we had that one."
How it's going
What these numbers mean
One flat unit a call, graded at the line and price the board posted. Nasty Dogs are price bets and never count in the Nasty Pick record. "Vs the close" is closing line value: the number we posted against where the market ended up at kickoff. Positive means we got the better number. It shows whether the picks beat the market long before the win-loss record can.
How the last picks finished
Cashed at the cage off the final score, one unit a ticket. Every rung of the ladder, graded at the line and price the board had at kickoff. Open a rung for the games, by week.

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.

What the results are teaching us

What a bigger change would have done.

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.

| Under in 15+ mph wind | 430 games | 53.0% | why windy totals get pulled down |
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 one totals bet that has measured above break-even is the stale one above, where a book hasn't moved with the market, and even that is shown here, never a pick, until the Receipts say otherwise.
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.

Under the hood
28 graded bets. Enough to start reading, not enough to be sure of.
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: 138 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: 60 of 138 moved our way, average +0.4 points, and the full board kept the side 51 times, flipped it 4, went quiet 83. Not a record; nothing here is graded.

Totals by source, every finished game
Each totals source graded on every game we priced, called or not: how far it misses the final, and when it disagrees with the market by 2 or 4 points, how often its side lands. Break-even is 52.4%. This is the study behind the totals switch; the switch stays off until a source clears it over 150 games. Not a record.

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.
SP+, FPI, Sagarin and Massey for college. nfelo, FPI, Sagarin and Massey for the NFL. Four opinions, none of them ours.
The Four blended toward the market, because the market has already read them. Ratings get 30%, the market 70%.
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.
Every ticket cashed at the number it was written at. No edits, no deletions. Voids say why.
A half point matters most on the numbers games land on: 3 and 7 in the NFL; 3, 7, 10 and 14 in college. Anywhere else, ten cents of price beats a half point. The Sauce prices every half point at every number, so when two books disagree the row says which wins, and by how much. Take the best one you hold.

Then the tools: build detail, the funnel, what moved, the line archive, ratings freshness, and the bet log.
We read 71 games across 22 books, priced every moneyline, spread and total, and cross-checked them against the Four. 1 was worth a second look. nothing made the Cut, which happens.

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.
Fitted straight from the finals, the weight is 6%, give or take 20% (one standard error, 243 games). The tuner moves when that band clears the setting in use.
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.
What it changed by itself
The weight on our own ratings tunes itself, three points at a time, once there's enough evidence: 300 graded games for college, 90 for the NFL because a season only holds 272. The smaller sample has to show a proportionally bigger improvement before it's acted on. Nothing else adjusts on its own.

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.
| Score | W-L | Cover rate |
|---|---|---|
| 0.0 to 1.5 | 155-145 | 52% |
| 1.5 to 3.0 | 7-10 | 41% |
| 3.0 to 5.0 | 10-11 | 48% |
The line archive
Every book's price, saved on every run. 903471 prices banked. Books that move most are usually the ones reacting to money rather than setting the number.
A number moves 1.26 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.
