Accountability

Every prediction, graded

Every 2025 game the model would have called, using only games played before it. Nothing here is stored — the whole season is recomputed on every request, so it cannot be edited after the fact and a bad week cannot quietly go missing.

How it is graded

For every week, the ratings are recomputed from the games played before it, and the prediction that follows is exactly the one the model would have made at the time. No game contributes to its own prediction.

Early weeks are not graded at all — until roughly a hundred and fifty games have been played, the ratings are too thin to be worth marking. Games involving a team outside the ratings pool are excluded, because there was no rating to predict with. Ties grade nobody.

Probabilities use a spread fitted on these same out-of-sample predictions, which is the same conversion the rest of the site uses. See the accuracy page for whether that confidence is honest.
