Nasty Picks
A ticket written here stays on the board until kickoff and is cashed at the number we posted. Each one says what to do at today's line.

Buck's Take
Five Nasty Picks on the counter this week: Ohio -3, Cincinnati +7, Pittsburgh +3.5 -107 at Kalshi, San Diego State +4.5 -106 at FanDuel and South Florida -5.5 -110 at Caesars. Straight bets. Don't make it a parlay.
UCF at Houston, UCF +12.5. Every system has Houston by 6.5; the market has Houston by 12.5. The number at the book misses the Cut. It's a Nasty Pick at +14.
Baylor at Arizona State, Baylor +4.5. Every system has Baylor by 2.5; the market has Arizona State by 4. The number at the book misses the Cut. It's a Nasty Pick at +4.5.
A little nasty, if you want action: 5 sneakies; the strongest is Massachusetts -6.5 (Eastern Michigan at Massachusetts) at 5.5% after the price. For the couch, not the mortgage. The one moving our way is Louisville at NC State, Over 58.5, down 2 since the open.
Since the last build, Cincinnati at Arizona slipped to A Little Nasty; Colts at Commanders climbed to Damn Near Nasty; Eastern Michigan at Massachusetts slipped to A Little Nasty.
If you're playing one, it's the receipt: Ohio at Kent State, Ohio -3. That's the one. One unit, on the Receipts.

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: Louisville at NC State, Over 58.5. The total has come down 2 points since it opened. A total, so it stays a sneaky.

Marked: best for the Tulsa side and the Over, 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: 5 mph wind, 73°F, 56% chance of rain. Total pulled down 1 for it.
Across the books: opened -2.5, now -1.0 (the market moved 1.4 toward North Texas).
Kalshi thin: Tulsa Golden Hurricane -1.5, only $0 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
TOM: total 57.5 here against 57.8 consensus.

Weather at kickoff: 10 mph wind, 74°F.
Moved down since the last run: was Damn Near Nasty, now A Little Nasty · Cincinnati.
Across the books: opened -8.5, now -7.0. The market has moved 1.2 toward Cincinnati, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking.
Kalshi thin: Arizona Wildcats -7.5, only $293 available; Under 55.5, only $12 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

Across the books: opened -4.5, now -6.5. The market has moved 1.8 toward Massachusetts, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking.
Kalshi thin: Eastern Michigan Eagles +6.5, only $12 available; Under 48.5, only $190 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.

Marked: best for Commanders, higher payout on each moneyline.
If you're betting it anyway: Buck's side is Commanders +3.5 · -105 at Caesars. Not a Nasty Pick, just the better side.
Moved up since the last run: was Not Nasty, now Damn Near Nasty. The line went from +3.0 to +3.5.
Across the books: opened +4.5, now +3.5. The market has moved 0.9 toward Commanders, which is where we lean. That's the market agreeing with us, and the value shrinking.
Kalshi thin: Indianapolis Colts -3.5, only $47 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
Also out: Alec Pierce (WR, Colts), Carson Towt (TE, Colts), Nick Cross (S, Commanders) and 3 more.
Neutral site, so no home field in the number.

Marked: best for the Seahawks side and the Over, 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: 5 mph wind, 67°F.
Across the books: opened -6.5, now -7.5 (the market moved 0.7 toward Seahawks). It crossed 7 on the way, which is where a lot of games land.
Kalshi thin: Over 42.5, only $166 available; Under 42.5, only $63 available. Under $500 fillable, so that price isn't counted.
Also out: Zach Charbonnet (RB, Seahawks), Charlie Kolar (TE, Chargers), Anthony Bradford (G, Seahawks).
TOM: spread -7.0 here against -7.3 consensus.
TOM: total 42.5 here against 42.9 consensus.

A Little Nasty, Under 48.5. Massey and FPI say under by 5.0 points, which is a little nasty, not a bet: the totals model is still proving itself. On the side, market says Saints by 2.5, the Nasty Number says Saints by 3. Nothing there.

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
Every game we price is graded once it finishes, whether or not we backed it. This is that study, per sport, with the sample size beside each number. Totals by source and the record by call sit under the hood below. Not a record; nothing here is a pick. Updated 2026-09-29 18:06.

The line archive, 230 games. Between the first build that priced a game and the last before kickoff, the market moved toward our number 116 times, against it 81, and sat still 33. Our side taken at the open finished 0.64 points better than the close on average over 216 games.

The head start. 108 Sniffs of Nasty have landed on a rung: the market moved toward the Sunday number 45 times, against it 25, average 0.42 points; the full board kept the side 49 times, flipped 4, went quiet 55.
What a bigger change would have done. Each recorded game day replayed with a candidate setting and scored against the finals (2026-09-21, 2026-09-22, 2026-09-23, 2026-09-25, 2026-09-26, 2026-09-27, 2026-09-28, 2026-09-28).

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.
| College | Record | Hit rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stale spread, 2+ pts off the pack | 232-184 | 55.8% | the rule behind stale-number picks |
| Stale spread, 1+ pt off the pack | 733-642 | 53.3% | |

| Stale total, 1+ pt off the pack | 804-717 | 52.9% | |
| Ratings alone 3+ pts off the close | 841-797 | 51.3% | why a ratings pick needs every source agreeing and a priced edge |
| Favourites laying 17 or more | 1,540 games | 49.2% covered | why lines past 17 aren't priced |
| 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
It's 18 graded bets. That tells you nothing yet, in either direction. Ask again after fifty.
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: 108 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: 45 of 108 moved our way, average +0.4 points, and the full board kept the side 49 times, flipped it 4, went quiet 55. 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 72 games across 22 books, priced every moneyline, spread and total, and cross-checked them against the Four. 0 were worth a second look. 5 cleared every check.

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 2%, give or take 21% (one standard error, 170 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 | 124-126 | 50% |
| 1.5 to 3.0 | 3-8 | 27% |
| 3.0 to 5.0 | 5-6 | 45% |
The line archive
Every book's price, saved on every run. 857137 prices banked. Books that move most are usually the ones reacting to money rather than setting the number.
A number moves 1.15 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.
