| 5/18/26 | Why a Stanford PhD Doesn't Bet His Model Alone - Ed Feng | Dr. Ed Feng founded The Power Rank.com in 2008 after reading Google's PageRank paper and applying the same math to sports rankings. His public NFL spread predictions have hit 51.8% against the closing market over the last four seasons (396-369-21), and his college football model writes for Yahoo Sports. But here's the thing that surprised me most in this conversation: even with a Stanford PhD and a rigorous bottom-up model, Ed doesn't bet his numbers alone. The actual handicap is at the team-by-team level, still subjective, still leaning on context the model can't see. In this episode of Before You Bet, we get into why that's the case — what role the subjective layer is actually playing for him, where the limits of a quantitative model show up in college football specifically, how he thinks about wisdom of crowds in ratings sources, the bottom-up versus top-down framing Spanky coined on his podcast, prediction markets as a tool, and what 15+ years of doing rigorous analytical work in a domain most academic institutions dismiss has actually taught him about edge.Follow Ed Feng: @thepowerrankFollow the show: @CFB900 | — | ||||||
| 5/17/26 | The Discipline Behind Long-Term Edge — Kyle Hunter | Kyle Hunter has been a public handicapper for 15+ years, with a specialty in totals across college football, the NFL, the NBA, MLB, and college basketball. He's known for deploying early in the week and for working trends and team-level data into a process that's produced profitability long term. In this episode of Before You Bet, we get into how he uses coaching trends as a roadmap for season win totals (anchored to his Maryland/Locksley read from last year), what makes CFB totals their own challenge compared to other sports, how he thinks about the tradeoff between betting into uncertainty early in the week versus waiting for better information, how the modeling era has changed the work over 15+ years, and how he's thinking about prediction markets as the landscape evolves.Before You Bet is CFB900's evergreen interview series with experienced college football handicappers — process, market structure, and the discipline behind real edge, with no filler.Follow Kyle Hunter: @KylehunterpicksFollow CFB900: @CFB900 | — | ||||||
| 5/15/26 | Maximizing Value and Conviction in College Football Betting — Josh Nunn (Duck) | Josh Nunn — known on X as Duck (@steponaduck) — is one of the sharpest bettors in college football on finding value where the broader market isn't paying attention. He covers college football for the Action Network. That shows up in his work across FCS and small conferences, in his live-market reads where algorithm-driven pricing leaves room to fire, in his offseason positions on Kalshi, and in his discipline around plays where his number is far off the market. In this special episode of CFB900's Before You Bet, we get into how he builds conviction in those spots, why he's willing to tie up capital on a six-month edge, and what he watches for in markets the modeling era hasn't fully reached. | — | ||||||
