if you didn't watch the game it was a Tough loss for the NIU-3 backers after being up 17-0 at halftime.. pathetic second half being routed 7-31.

Hey Buzz, is there any way you can get your hand on “The Logical Approach “ news letter? Just a question. I listen to Mark Lawrence’s podcast every week and it seems like Andy does have some good informations. Thank you for considering

 

[Ozzy1]

Hi Buzz , On my first post in this forum I want to thank you for all the effort you put in here for everyone to use. I want to bring attention to William Hill betting percentages. I saw last week and in your more recent post from yesterday that when the amount of tickets favors one team but the dollar amount favors the other team then the team with the most dollars seems to win. Its 4 for 4 from what i see so far. Just an observation if it hasn't been pointed out yet.

Doesn't work. I just looked back at the last three weeks real quick in both the NFl and college and its about even

This info comes out a few hours before game time. It's available at the William Hill twitter account. Not sure how worthwhile it is, but it is interesting info. Congratulations Ozzy1 on making your first post at the Rx in the Newsletter Thread!

When Lawrence and Lang agree on a Max Bet Play, its time to FADE!

Fade Play of the Month

Marc Lawrence has his top rated 10* COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME OF THE YEAR (documented 29-11-1 all-time) on Auburn +4 1/2. Brandon Lang has a max wager 150 dimer on Auburn +4 1/2.

Fade play is on the other side, Alabama and the line has moved up to Alabama -5 1/2.

Is it really 29-11-1 all time? I thought ML was garbage.

Is it really 29-11-1 all time? I thought ML was garbage.

That is the record he shows on his site for his College Football Game of the Year. I guess this makes it Lawrence's 42nd College Game of the Year and its only $99. What can go wrong?

Powers' Picks

 

[exploited17]

Weird....because Marc Lawrence has a 15-0 ATS sytem play on South Carolina. Why wouldn't that be his game of the year? Any pick by him that isn't a system I wouldn't even conside based on his handicapping or whatever. I wouldn't go against his system plays as a fade though. Not saying he makes lots of money on them but I would say you definitely aren't making money fading them

<header class="entry-header" style="color: rgb(55, 55, 55); font-family: open_sansregular, sans-serif, Helvetica, Arial; font-size: 15px;">[h=1]CFL Grey Cup betting: Calgary Stampeders vs. Toronto Argonauts[/h]Posted on <time class="entry-date" datetime="2017-11-23T19:14:59+00:00" style="color: rgb(119, 119, 119);">November 23, 2017</time> by zcodeadmin
</header>[FONT=open_sansregular]
The CFL season is down to its final game of the season, the Grey Cup. Two teams will contest the league’s version of the Super Bowl, as the Toronto Argonauts will play the Calgary Stampeders.
Calgary finished the CFL season with the best record in the league. The team went 13-4, but lost its final three games of the regular season. Meanwhile, the Argonauts were just .500. It was still good enough to top the Eastern Conference, however.
Calgary comes into Sunday’s game as the massive favorite. Calgary is -310 to win the 150th edition of the Grey Cup. The bad news for Calgary is the underdog typically does very well in the Grey Cup game. So, the Stampeders need to watch out on Sunday.
If fans want to see an exciting football game, and one that really means something on Sunday, then betting on the Grey Cup is a must. The two teams met in the 2012 edition of the big game. Toronto came out winners, 35-22. Since that final, Calgary has appeared in two Grey Cup finals, winning one and losing one. The Stampeders lost last season’s final, but the team’s performances this season make them look extremely good value to win this weekend.
Calgary has been the Grey Cup favorites throughout the CFL season. The team started the year as +350 favorites to win the final.
Toronto has lost the last eight games the two teams have played. Confidence could be low amongst bettors that Toronto could win the final.
Calgary has a veteran CFL quarterback in Bo Levi Mitchell. The Stampeders quarterback has done it all in the CFL during his career, and he is being tipped to be the Most Outstanding Player of the final. Mitchell was sixth in touchdown passes in 2017 (23), while completing 64% of his passes.
Toronto’s Ricky Ray was slightly better in both categories. Ray threw 28 touchdowns and completed 71% of his passes. Ray maybe 38-years old, but he is having a great CFL season. He has already won three Grey Cups and a fourth could be his; if Toronto can upset its rivals on Sunday.
The final could be won on the ground. Toronto gave up just 58 yards rushing per game during its last three. However, Calgary running back Jerome Messam has been one of the best rushers in the entire league this season. Messam gained 1,016 yards on the ground, the third most in the CFL. He also rushed for nine touchdowns, which was good for second in the league.
According to the weather forecasts, the temperatures in Ottawa will be around 16 degrees Fahrenheit. It could play into the final result, but these players are used to the drop in the mercury during fall in Canada.
Toronto maybe the underdog, but the team has won 16 Grey Cups in its history. Calgary, on the other hand, has lifted seven trophies. It is going to be an exciting final in Ottawa on Sunday and fans who love entertaining football won’t be disappointed.

</header>[FONT=open_sansregular]Tampa Bay Buccaneers versus Atlanta Falcons
The Buccaneers come in at 4-6, while the Falcons are off a win against the Seahawks and are 6-4. Last year the teams split as both won on the road. The Falcons are 8.5 point favorites and have a +20 to +5 edge don the Power Ranking Indicator. Neither teams is on fire, with the Bucs at “dead up” and Atlanta at “ice cold up” on the Team Strength Oscillator. Tampa Bay is tied for eighth in Team Volatility, which is another indicator to bet against them as the road underdog. The Falcons will win this one to improve to 7-4.
Buffalo Bills versus Kansas City Chiefs
Both teams are struggling at the moment. The Bills come in at 5-5 and are “average down” on the Team Strength Oscillator, while the Chiefs fell to the lowly Giants and are 6-4 on the season after a 5-0 start. The Chiefs won the last meeting as home favorite in 2015. Nearly identical on the Power Ranking Indicator, the Chiefs are a 9.5 point favorite and are tied for eighth in Team Volatility. I see the Chiefs ending their skid with a relatively easy win.
Carolina Panthers versus New York Jets
The Panthers are coming in at 7-3 and “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator. On the slip side, the Jets are 4-6 and “average” status. There is a similar gap on the Power Ranking Indicator with the Panthers holding a +25 to +13 advantage. The Panthers won the last meeting in 2013 as the home favorite and are a 9.5 point favorite this time around. Carolina will continue to roll and take down the Jets, covering the spread.
Denver Broncos versus Oakland Raiders
The Broncos look to end a six-game skid with Paxton Lynch taking over at quarterback. Oakland comes in at 4-6 and are a 3.5 point home favorite. Denver won the first meeting this season as the home favorite on October 1. Both teams are currently riding the “dead” status on the Team Strength Oscillator, while the Raiders hold a +13 to +3 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator. I see Oakland continuing Denver’s woes, holding on in a tight game.
New Orleans Saints versus Los Angeles Rams
Two to the top teams in the NFC face off, as the Saints come in at 8-2 and the Rams at 7-3. The Rams got handled easily against the Vikings last week, while the Saints came back to defeat the Redskins. Both teams are “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator and are nearly even in terms of Power Ranking Indicator. The Rams are a 2 point home favorite, but having lost to one of the NFC powerhouses a week ago does not bode well for them this week. I see the Saints continuing to roll, taking down the Rams in a game decided late.
Houston Texans versus Baltimore Ravens
Houston tries to stay within reach of the .500 mark, while the Ravens look to improve to 6-5. Both teams are “ice cold down” on the Team Strength Oscillator, but the Ravens hold some advantages which will tilt this prediction in their favor. They have a +12 to +6 edge on the Power Ranking Indicator and are tied for 10th in Team Volatility. As a 7.5 point favorite, I look for the Ravens to overtake the Texans, but perhaps not covering the spread.

Fade Play of the Month

Marc Lawrence has his top rated 10* COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME OF THE YEAR (documented 29-11-1 all-time) on Auburn +4 1/2. Brandon Lang has a max wager 150 dimer on Auburn +4 1/2.

Fade play is on the other side, Alabama and the line has moved up to Alabama -5 1/2.

That's why they call it gambling. lol.
I did fade on 'Bama, but in a teaser where I had them down to even. Straight up ATS I stayed on Auburn - despite all the fade trends.

The Lang Fade hasn't been the Gold is usually is this season. That probably means a "DECEMBER TO REMEMBER" for faders is just on the horizon. Neither of those guys can sustain any consistent winning.

[grimreaper1]

looks like this System is going to have a losing day today

So not sure why only 33 of the 43 games are on here and im in USA says cant access info. But the way that I use this info is different than posted in here and I dont want to step on any toes but it wins consistantly. Even this week when mentioned was losing week. I take games where total money percentage is higher than ticket percentage on same team and bet them 17-14 this week..

Mendoza Line cumulative year to date record through November 26:

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.
I put some of the extreme hot and cold plays in bold this week.

@Ozzy.....good observation...the other thing to watch is when the $$ is heavy on one side the line should move also..if it goes the other way that's a red flag...over the long haul...the $$ is where it's at....i love when tickets are 80% on 1 side but $$ is say 80% on other....$$$$ speaks volumes
