Bettors and modelers

A decade of sportsbook lines next to the games

Moneyline, spread and total from 4 to 12 books per regular-season game for 2013-14 to 2023-24, joined to the result and our ratings.

Odds history is scattered, rarely names the book, and does not come with the game attached.

A backtest needs the price you could have taken and what happened after, in one row.

What to build

Closing-line backtests

Pull a day's lines by book, with each game's result against the spread and total, and test a rule against the price you would have got.

Model against the market

Compare our Elo-based win chances with the implied probability in the line to find where they disagree.

Movement before tip-off

Daily snapshots of each posted line show where the market moved before a game.

What it will not do

  • Before 2023-24 each book has one final pregame line, stored as the close; there is no opening line then.
  • Since 2024-25 there is usually one book per game. Nothing before 2012-13.
  • Women's college basketball has no odds tools.
