A good round for WoSHBODS on Margin MAE (17.8 points per game) and Totals MAE (16.5 points per game), but just 3.5 from 9 on accuracy and a negative LPS, which takes it to the cumulative result shown below.

(NB This is a corrected version of the Performance table. The previous one used the wrong data in calculating Score MAEs. This version is consistent with the published week-to-week forecasts)
