The spread is Florida Int'l by 4.5 and the computer agrees but by less picking them by just 1.2. Here is the pick using the format from the newsletter:
..Marshall +4.5 over * Florida Int'l 1.2 3.3 0.549 0.631
Enjoy!
Newsletter pick format:
The x denotes the home team. The * denotes the pick to win the game. The . is just a place holder. The number before "over" is the best line I've found typically from Maddux Sports. The team on the left is the pick against the spread. The first column after the second team is what the computer predicts the winning team will win by. The next column is the difference between the Vegas line and that prediction. The next column is the confidence of my pick to win. The last column is the confidence of the pick against the spread.
