Mendoza Line Newsletter Tracking Through 9/15/19
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.
This week there were some games (Iowa/Iowa State and Bears/Broncos come to mind) where the lines fluctuated throughout the week and many people won/lost/pushed on the same picks just depending on when they placed their bet. For our record-keeping purposes here, each play is graded based on the newsletter line used at the time, so you will see some different outcomes for the same pick.
