I will posting in here trends I notice along the way along with stuff I go back and verify as the Bowl season progresses. In the past there has been a few situations where teams fav by more than 10 the bdt is not as successful- last year this was not the case. I will go back a few more years to really hash that out over the next few days. Another thing I will be going back to look at is with those bdt winners/losers in the past what was the coaching impacts. All this I will look over in the next few days- if people want to help and have a source that lists bowl season coaching changes for the past let me know as that would speed things up. As always lets get this!

*edit -As of now I will List plays where where there have been a head coach missing but last year those teams went 1-5 ats

12/15 ** edit For clarity I am going to list all plays that match bdt regardless of line or circumstance I they match I will list but next to play I will notate next to play to tread lightly for whatever reason - I feel that will provide clarity. 

NC A&T -8

Tulane -3

Fresno St -6

eastern Washington -11 

EMU +3 (close ranking)

Utah state -8 (coach left)

App state -6.5 (coach left)

I will be updating this thread daily and will be watching do new trends real time that involve the bdt to maximize the winning. Search for last years post in here and you’ll see how we hit 77% - hoping to rock close to that- last year we started on a 19-2 record hitting the first 16 in a row if I’m not mistaken . Good luck!

Dang, great bowl record over the years! Thank you for sharing and good luck!

4-1 so far 

5-1

I guess I didn’t make the title flashy enough for people to click on- missing out like y’all did last year. 

Bbbbbbb bdttttt 6-1 fellas! Lfg 

Solid day folks- great start to the bowl season- I will be updating thread and plays in the next day or so 

Not missing out either....teams with 40 point difference in ranking were even slightly better last year....

Tulane, fresno st., and Appalachian st so far this year.....

san diego st., BYU, Army, Vanderbilt, alabama, Cincinnati, Michigan st.,  Missouri, Washington left to go

    according to my records.....GREAT SYSTEM....and thanks for sharing

solid start! Great work

Thanks for sharing!

Hahah I was wondering the same thing. BDT what tf.

Thanks for compiling this and all your hard work. I LOVE this system. Just based on principle. I'd like to apply it to other sports.

Are we not playing Northern Illinois in BDT?

Sorry for the late response solid start not let’s keep it going! 

2018 BDT 

6-1

12/18 

Northern Illinois +2.5

How are you calculating the better defense?

thanks 

Rough yesterday - 6-2 so far let’s get this tonight - San Diego state +2.5

It looks as if the system is not working out this week.  Ohio Bobcats look like Pittsburgh Steelers against this garbage San Diego State team.

What happened to your system? Your system gives Ohio, not SD St
