Monday Newsletter Pick of the Day - Auburn Tigers +2 in the Sugar Bowl
Now that I know Lang is on Western Michigan, its safe to make a bet on Auburn.
After losing the Washington Huskies +14 bet in the Peach Bowl, the bankroll is now $829. I am betting 10% of the bankroll or $88 on the Auburn Tigers.
PICK 12 - 01/02/2017 - 281 Auburn Tigers +2 over the Oklahoma Sooners in the Sugar Bowl, betting $88 to win $80.
Record: 5-6, 45.4%

NFL Records Update - Thanks Mendoza Line!
Newsletter Tracking through 01/01/2017 by Mendoza Line, posted January 2 at another forum:
Not every newsletter gets posted every week, and I'll try to note when the record doesn't include every week of the season.
Another note is that the grading is based on the line indicated in the newsletter at the time of publication, not the closing line. Many of these newsletters will claim a win against the best available line as it moves throughout the week, but these records reflect the outcome against the line they were willing to make a play on in their newsletter.
Updating only NFL records again this week. It becomes too difficult to track college plays in the usual way during the bowl season, as many newsletters stop releasing college plays altogether, and some release special bowl editions with suggestions on every game.
Updated records in bold! Looking like the last update for the season. Back again next year. Enjoy the playoffs.

Final tally on the list when Power Sweep and Bowl Stat Report are in agreement on a game:
UTSA
Wyoming
Idaho
Ohio U
Boston College
North Texas
Wake Forest
Minnesota
Northwestern
Utah
South Carolina
Arkansas
Colorado
South Alabama
Florida State
LSU
Kentucky
Washington (stat report BB)
Auburn (stat report BB)
12-7. If I remember correctly, this started out 6-1 last year and then plateaued out too.
Lawrence Bowl Stat report had by far the best bowl season of all the newsletters followed by Sports Reporter and Winning Points. Winning Points closed the bowls on a 7-0 run (W Mich as a push). Gold Sheet and Power Sweep turned a small profit, all the rest were mediocre or bad (POINTWISE: 16-23 -$930).

Thanks Acebb! Good info as always. I see Winning Points likes Alabama to beat Clemson by three so the play here riding WP's 7-0 run would be Clemson +6 1/2.
