This is not true.
KenPom against the spread is 48.72% or 381-401 so far in 2011-12.
KenPom against the spread for 2010-11 was 50.40%
This is generally were these prediction models fall, usually between 47.5% to 52.5% per year. |

Good Stuff, you know you ll have to double check the close ones cause KP updates about an hour after the last game. Usually the outcomes are much different at all but I have made this mistake before and missed a play that beaver had due to it. |

Its a misconception that we all think KP is a false. I dont believe KP considers injuries in his formula. Heck I use the site, alot of great statistics on there. |

Check the open on the Nova game. I see Nova -1.5 and KP has Seton Hall -1. The 2.5 point difference is good for a play on a 0-4 differential.
Check the open on the Wyoming game. I see Wyoming -1 and KP has Wyoming -2. So the 1 point difference is not enough for a play. |

I had it marked to recheck, I read it wrong for sure. Wyom did open at -1.  I just plain forgot to copy the vill/Okie state plays down.

breaking out the KP spreads. Very helpful for big days like Saturday.
I use Firefox and I know there is some difference in how Firefox deals with copied txt vs IE. But this may work in IE as well.
1) Highlight and copy the KP Fanmatch table.
2)
When you Paste to Excel, you have to select Paste Special - Unicode
Text. This will break out the data in columns. At this point you should
see the Prediction columnin column C. If you DON'T pick Unicode Text,
you will get a long string of text in a single cell.
3) The key
to breaking out the numbers is the "-" between the scores. Clear out
columns D, E, F, and G because this is where you will be adding
formulas.
4) In column D enter the following formula (asuuming
you are on row #4): =FIND("-",C4,1)-2, this locates the "-" then backs
up 2 spaces to identify the first digit of the score prediction. The
result will be a number like 16 or something meaning its the 16th
character in the string.
5) In column E enter this formula:=MID(C4,D4,2), this returns the predicted score of the winning team.
6) In coumn F enter this formula: =MID(C4,D4+3,2), this returns the predicted score of the losing team.
7) In column G enter: =F4-E4, this gives you the KP line for KP's favored team.
A
this point you can sort the data from column C through G, print it out
and quickly look up KP lines on all favorites as you go through the
opening lines.
This should save a lot of time on big play days
and avoid calculation errors. Just make sure you watch for flips
between the Fave and the Dog between KP and the opening line.
One update to this. I verified that if you are using IE rather than Firefox and you are using a newer version of Excel like 2010 or later, you DO NOT have to use Paste Special - Unicode Text. You can just directly paste with Ctrl-V and it will paste in with the appropriate columns.
Hope this has helped everyone. Lots of good analysis going on here.
