Vegas Plays Game Data

If you like to do your own research, you can't beat our data files. Here is a sample of the libraries you will receive as a subscriber. You'll have access to a file for every upcoming game in the NFL, NBA, college football (including FCS), and college basketball. Files are updated nightly.

Also note that subscribers get prediction updates much earlier than the general public sees. This is especially true for football. For example, for college football, the basic website available to all won't have Saturday predictions up until Thursday or Friday, but subscribers will have the numbers by Monday.

Game data files are always updated ASAP. For the upcoming week of college football, I will have new data files up late on Saturday night after the current week ends! Then they are updated through the week, with updated point spreads.

Now back to the game data... This is some heavy-duty stuff. Thinking of placing a bet? Wondering how a road dog has historically fared in the game? It's all right here. You won't find equivalent material anywhere.

As a subscriber, you get the extensive game data files, as well as access to the Dokter Entropy predictions earlier than the general public sees them. For NFL and college football, you'll see side numbers at least 24 hours earlier (and more often about 48 hours). For NBA and college basketball, it's more difficult to create a lag, but you will have access to numbers at least an hour sooner.

Sample data files: Here are the data files posted for five NCAA football games of Week 11, 2022 (Nov 12):

Virginia Tech at Duke
Notre Dame vs Navy
Oklahoma at West Virginia
Pittsburgh at Virginia
Indiana at Ohio State

Data legend:

MoV = Margin of Victory (negative values mean the team was outscored on average).
last_3_delta = how much better or worse the team has played in its last 3 games compared to their rating for the entire season.
The "O/U" stat lists how many times the team has gone over and under on totals for the current season.
Schedule strengths and margins of victory are for the current season's schedule played to present. If the team has not yet played a home, road, or neutral game, then the respective values are from the previous season.
A "vs" instead of an "at" denotes a game on a neutral field/court.
The "similar games in recent history" section shows past games where the teams involved had power ratings similar to the teams in question.
The average ATS (against the spread) differentials are relative to home teams and favorites. In the home/road results section, if the number is positive, then the home teams covered (on average), while if the differential is negative, then the road teams covered (on average). Likewise in the favorites/underdogs summaries - positive for favorites, negative for dogs. The differential is the amount by which the teams covered, or failed to cover, on average.
SU = straight-up (simply winning, no point spread considered)

The time-weighted statistics put more weight on more recent results.

It's simple, but takes a few looks to become familiar with everything.
