You have RT as a 30 point favorite and the under at 34. Ouch.

The formula is just **that** precise. I'm not gonna question it.

We're 25 point favorites???!! What?! Where are these spreads coming from??

I messed up one of the spreads.

Too high? Too low? Right on?

IMO - definitely too high - I'd put it at closer to 7 - though I'm not sure I consider us the favorites either. Last game I would have put us at 7 point underdogs as well (and been dead on...)

I'll copy MC_Hammer's format of bolding my picks.

More people sleeping on the Turtles. Any chance we could funnel some of the proceeds from those betting against us into stadium renovations?

Think that there isn't enough datapoints out there for making a good spread. I'd suspect that the stats are biased towards the teams that have played the decepticons. I really couldn't place a bet on us Flying Monkeys when were giving 26 points to the Bearcats.

The Newcastle/EC game is going to be a close, hard fought battle. As a Bearcat, I would put all of my money on EC to cover, and take the under. It would be a bet worth losing.

Yeah, I know we suck and all...but umm....

Normally I'd agree. With Fiji, I figure that whoever wins, nobody's winning by more than a touchdown. Brantford is damn good, though.
