FoxSheet College Basketball - First Half Power Line System (2/27/2009, by burytheb)

I have had an amazing run over the last two weeks in ncaabb playing the first half only.

I start with double digit favorites and when the statfox powerline is = to or > (equal to or greater than) the spread.

I then look at the road team net pf and pa. (FIRST HALF ONLY). and good example would be arkansas lr -11 1/2 with a sf powerline of 13.

new orleans net pf - pa was -6 (they gave up six more points than scored on the road) arkansas lr was +3 (they score 3 points more than give up at home). This gives a +9 (THIS IS FOR FIRST HALF ONLY NUMBERS).

The +9 is greater than the first half spread of -6. AR lr was cover the first half at a +17.

the next calculation is first half pf for visitnig team no and pa comared to pa for ar lr. this was +8 for ar lr (pf) and +1 pa for ar lr.

when both these calculations are greater than the first half line it is a play.

last nights plays were 7-2 and actually i went against gonzaga who actually had - numbers.

i will post saturday plays under this system.

lets call this FIRST HALF POWERLINE PLAYS.

this can also be used for non double digit favorites. will save that one for some other time.
