I was gonna go check the NBA schedule, but figured someone here might already have those spots marked. If not, then I will go look.

You must be talking about Rodney Alcala* the serial murderer who was on the Dating Game in the 70's.

I cannot correlate that with gambling bro, please enlighten me

no I'm talking about the Acela schedule spot, known as the Acela Angle. Road team goes into Boston & NY. If the road team wins the first, the 2nd game the home teams win. Something like 24-1 ATS since '97.

I was completely joking of course.

Sounds interesting...

Ok back to serious business...

In the NFL, if a 6 seed has reached the playoffs and won their first two road games SU & ATS what're the ATS statistics of the home team in game 3 when they're underdogs?

Anybody?

Bears?

dude are you serious? This is the NBA forum. Go to the NFL forum with that question.

So no one tracks the Acela? Cool. Time to do some homework.

if the bears are winning each game that the temperature at kickoff is 37 degrees in calendar years that are prime numbers and the opposing qb graduated from a pac 10 school-

what are the steelers ats in week 13?

when the Acela angle comes, I'm sure someone will bring it up but so far this year, I don't think it has taken place yet...still remember several years back when it went perfect.

The Acela Angle


I'm pretty sure the two games I listed above are the only remaining potential play situations this season

it's play on the team that beats either boston or NY in the first game then play the other team right in the next game...if you google it, it has a better explaination

For the old timers here, I think it was discussed yearly by BAR and others who left

best trend to follow IMO

If a team plays @Boston then b2b @ NY and the road team wins in Boston, you would play on NY.
