I haven't jumped in this year, not sure how it would be doing.  I was thinking a safe way to do this system is to wait until the halfway point of the season.  That way the teams are more defined and the betting lines are more accurate.

I checked the Primetime Under for '24.  By skimming through "Matchups and Scores" on OddsShark, I got unders at 11, and overs at 8.  I went for it on week 7.  3 overs and 1 under.  Not to worry, I can chase things out with the Stoffo -110 betting progression that DanRules has recommended.  Not a bad system at all, thanks 

This great system finally lost last year.  A few top teams : Bos, NJ, TB to name a few, didn't win as many as the year before.  Was it a blip on the radar?  Anyone doing this in '24 - '25?

The Finals ate set.  Looks like Tatum (Bos) and Doncic (Dal)  

I had SGA over 28.5 (Bovada).  Good system.  I like the criteria of using a top 10 scorer from the regular season.  A player like that is usually counted on to go big in the playoffs.  Tough break on the hook though

Thanks to Nikola Jokic.  He played well, took a lot of shots, scored a lot of points, and his team barely lost.  That's the type of Playoff Game I envisioned when I read about the idea for this system.  Congrats 

It looks easy reading about it.  From last year I know this system can be a bit of a roller coaster 

I just wagered $11.50 to win $10 

In October I probably will

Good Call 

5 down, 3 to go.  There are always a couple of series that go long with this system.  

When I jump in, I probably won't do every team.  Not all the teams have 25+ ppg All-Star.   Also I don't know enough details about the NBA.  

That is such a good idea.  All it takes is a big star stepping up in the playoffs and having a big game, even if the team barely loses the game.  I am hanging back for Round 2.  Thanks for sharing 

I don't know how that emoji got so big last year.  I didn't realize that would happen. There was a system loss last year.  If one happens in the first 2 rounds, it can be made up 

Princeton takes the title with a 22 point victory on the road.  Cornell won their game by 22 on the road as well but will have to settle for second place with Yale.  The Ivy League System goes 2 - 1 on the final day and finishes just under .500 at 27 - 28.  It may not have dominated, as that loser who attacked me on Valentine's Day needs to have happen, but there is money to be made.  Using the progression mentioned earlier, or conservatively chasing 20 wins are both options.  

I came up with the system after reading something about Billy Walters.  As many know, he is the winningest sports gambler of all-time.  He used a complex mathematical algorithm with many different variables such as : offensive/defensive rebounds, free throw %, steals,  miles traveled for the game, you get the idea.  Without a doubt, he started with points scored and allowed per game.  That's the Ivy League System : using an old school metric to win wagers placed on an old school conference. 

Overall w/l : 27 - 28

Brown just upset Yale in OT.  They hadn't won on the road at Yale in over 14 years. My prediction was wrong, but the system was right - It's Madness Baby!!

Last day of the season.  Princeton and Yale are tied for place at 11 - 2 in conference play.  Cornell is one game back at 10 - 3.  I agree with the prediction for the Princeton game, but not for Yale and Cornell.  I think both will cover, but the system says to take the underdogs.  If all three games sweep, it will finish at over .500.

Brown 67.5
Yale 76
Brown +11.5

Cornell 77.75
Columbia 74.25
Columbia +5.5

Princeton 76.25
Penn 61.75
Princeton-6

Dartmouth wins 76 - 69.  The system really nailed that one, nearly predicting the final score.  Three games to go.

Overall w/l : 25 - 27

One game tomorrow, then three on Saturday, and the Ivy League Season will be over.  Harvard has been off all year on the to 5th place.  Dartmouth is usually the worst team and are currently 1 - 12 in conference play.  A lot of teams get up for Harvard, and Dartmouth has outscored them lately.  The system says to take the home team and the points.

Harvard 68.75

Dartmouth 73.25

Dartmouth +6.5

Harvard did disappoint and the system went 2 - 2 yet again.  Perhaps taking the under on the second half of back to backs has been sniffed out as doing so would have been 0 - 4 yesterday.  One game to go for each team.

Overall w/l : 24 - 27

o/u : 9 - 6
