MU was giving 6.5 this morning and now it's down to MU - 4.
That's a huge difference. Is there new of any significance?
Never mind. Glitch. I see it back as MU - 6.5...hmmm..
kenpom.com has us as 75-67 winners.
thanks brewcity!
What's does he have tonight's Alabama game at? :)

Bama 64, purdue 63 - but don't be ripping ken off from his 20 bucks for all the work he does
Joke that you have to pay now

Disagree. The amount of info on kenpom.com is worth far more than you get from just about any other site, and for less than $20, it's a huge bargain. I can't blame him for wanting to get paid for his hard work. When you look at what you pay annually for Scout, Rivals, or other sites, the value for kenpom.com is immense.
anyone ever see anything comparing his projections hitting against the spread?

Not an official study...I do remember someone posting somewhere (I think on scoop) where they had a gambling strategy where they only bet games where there was a significant difference between kenpom and the vegas spread...something like an 8 point difference. They claimed it was successful for them.
It is a bit foggy for me, but it caught my eye at the time.
I'm using this as a experimental year for Kenpom vs. Vegas. I'll make a spreadsheet or document and then analyze it at the end of the year.
I ended up paying my $20.00 a little later in the day. It's well worth it.

Pomeroy himself has an article saying that Vegas is more accurate than he is. Seems odd to me, because I'm pretty sure they care more about people betting equally on both sides than actually predicting accurate winners, but that's from the horse's mouth.
