Over the last week, we have been publishing the day's hottest trends for games that are relevant to that day's action. These trends are not based on a talking head's opinion and we have no vested interest in you using the information. The trends that we are publishing are from the Daily Line Report and provide an analysis on numerous angles designed to give you an advantage. We have received feedback that the DLR is a bit confusing and we want to take the time to explain it to you properly. First and foremost, AccuScore forecasts every game on every day for the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB and both college football and basketball. In addition to our player projections, we forecast who will win the game (Money Line), against the spread and over/unders (also known as totals). Our Live Betting Predictions page (exclusive to Winners Edge) gives users an easy to read spread sheet with these selections. It includes the entire slate of games for that league on one page. Here is an example of what it looks like.
AccuScore's official selection is always the team that has won the majority of simulations. In this case, our official selection is: Western Carolina on the Money Line; Western Carolina -2; Under 137. The probabilities you see are based on 10,000 simulations. To translate, Western Carolina won 6,400 of the 10,000 simulations and 5,660 of the time it was by more then 2 points. Over the 10,000 simulations, the teams combined to score under 137 points 5,430 times and over that amount 4,440 times. 170 of the simulations finished with exactly 137 total points. People often make the assumption that the higher the probability, the more likely the game is to win the bet. Conventional wisdom says that is correct, but as each season takes shape, we keep track of different trends. Because we make three selections on every game, the DLR report becomes a database for every angle you can imagine. While continuing to analyze the Western Carolina-Elon basketball game, let’s take a look at how the DLR can be useful. When you download the DLR, you will see the "Upcoming-NCAA" tab and you will see this information:
You will see that the Vegas line is Western Carolina -2 and 137 total points. Based on our simulations, the average margin of victory is 5 points with 134 total points. That represents a 3 point difference between the Vegas line and our simulation line. How does AccuScore do when Vegas point spread differs from our simulations by 3 points? ![]() In this situation, AccuScore has forecasted over 1,500 games this season with our selection being right 51% of the time. The next question is what is AccuScore's record against the spread and with totals involving Western Carolina and Elon? You can find this in the fourth tab, labeled "Records Best-Worst." ![]() The above graph shows you that in games Elon played, the AccuScore's selection has a won 70.6% of the time. In games involving Western Carolina, the AccuScore selection has won 55.6% of the time. AccuScore's combined record is 22-13 which is accurate 62.8% of the time. Remember, our point spread selection in this game is Western Carolina. If Western Carolina wins by more than 2 points, then our point spread predictions for both Elon and Western Carolina will increase.
