S&P+ against the spread

Every good run must come to an end...

  • Week 1: 20-17 (54%)
  • Week 2: 25-26 (49%)
  • Week 3: 28-23-1 (55%)
  • Week 4: 29-21-2 (57%)
  • Week 5: 27-28 (49%)
  • Week 6: 27-28 (49%)
  • Week 7: 20-36 (36%)
  • Week 8: 33-21-1 (61%)
  • Week 9: 25-26-1 (49%)
  • Week 10: 31-26-2 (54%)
  • Week 11: 31-27 (53%)
  • Week 12: 36-22 (62%)
  • Week 13: 27-33-2 (45%)
  • OVERALL: 359-333-9 (52%)

Still at 54% for the last six weeks, but Rivalry Week included some funkiness ... at least as far as the spread goes. The straight-up picks were the same as ever.
