Final score 48-3
I had Vandy at 51 through the Station Casinos. That is where I will most likely bet so I went with that. Would be easy to take the lower total that Covers had, but it wouldn't be a true test for how I would bet. Where does covers get their lines? Just curious. Since I'm in Vegas, I use my local lines.

BTW for the NFL we'd be down to 3 teams on game 4 (unders) Dallas, AZ, Seattle. Or should we chase overs? See below.
Did some back testing for the past 5 seasons and found if you did a 6 game chase just like for the NCAAF one, but used all OVERS the system went 160-0 with only 3 teams going to a game 6. In 2009 Washington pushed in week 1 then finally got an over in week 7, Washington in 2007 pushed in week 1, had a week 4 bye and went over in week 7, Tenn in 2007 had a bye in week 4 and went over for the first time in week 7.

I used $10 as a unit. Game 1 bet $11 to win $10. If they went to game 2 bet $27.50 to win $25, game 3 is $55 to win $50, game 4 is $115.50 to win $105. With those in mind, would have laid out $902 in week 1, $1100 in week 2, $1177 in week 3, $1116.50 in week 4, $594 in week 5. Was up $673.50 after week 4. Week 5 was a $111 loss, so up $562.50 total.

Week 7 here we go. 4 teams left. Sure am glad I'm testing on here before actually laying money down. Would be kind of nervous with all these 4-6 game chases.
Game 4 - Vandy 41 under
Game 5 - TCU 68.5 under, Washington 55 under
Game 6 (final game): Boise State 57.5 under

Split this week going 2-2 but still a profit since the game 6 team won.
Game 4 - Vandy 41 under
Game 5 - TCU 68.5 under Washington 55 under
Game 6 (final game): Boise State 57.5 under
Vandy goes to game 5, TCU to the dreaded game 6. I probably would have stopped after week 4 when I was up 67.35 units, or after week 5 up 56.25 units. With the big win by Boise St., up 73.1 units but two big bets for next week. I'll track them for the systems sake but I would have bought my wife the wine fridge she wants and pocketed the rest a while ago.

Yes, Vandy is Vanderbilt. They were on game 3 last week, so we were still betting the OVER.

Dan, are you going to bet over NE/SEA?
Since 2007, every team has had at least 1 over in their first 6 games (a push would extend to game 7. Seattle is the last team remaining so they system would say yes. I'm just tracking, not placing any real $$. If you do, good luck, I hope it goes over.

Seattle OVER. That makes the NFL 6 run over chase 192-0 since 2007.

Interesting question, never really thought about it as it didn't come up this year. I'm assuming in your scenario team A and B are playing each other. I think you have it backwards because the system calls for betting the OVER in the first 3 games then the under. In any case I would place 2 bets, with the larger bet on Team A obviously. I would also try to find a difference in the line between books. A 1.5 to 2 point difference might not seem like much but you could hit both bets.
