Volume 4 Issue 4 Preseason 2016 BP Sports, LLC PowerS picks $10 Wk 1 Best Bet on Georgia St (+5.5) moves 8.5 pts!!! Inside NFL Preseason QB Rotations, ATS Records! CFB Wk 1 Best Bet Pg 4! Frequently Asked Questions about Brad Powers and BP Sports: Since it is my goal to be the most honest, up front and reputable service on the market today along with being the most accurate, I thought I would take time to answer some FAQ s that I get each year especially for those of you that are new customers. 1. What is your business/handicapping experience level? I ve been betting football and basketball games since the early 1990 s. I have a broadcast journalism degree from Bowling Green State University and hosted my own sports talk show in Toledo, Ohio immediately after college. I was a professional handicapper for six years at Northcoast Sports before I stepped away and started by own service last January. Finally, you may have also heard me on SiriusXM Radio with Bill King for 5 years. 2. How are you different from the other services? There are probably too many differences to mention in this paragraph and I ve addressed many of the differences in the other answers below. I will say generally speaking, I am more conservative meaning fewer star-rated plays and I will offer less packages. It also means I will be far less concerned about the marketing aspect of the industry and will be more about the bottom line, which is to get you as many winners as possible on a consistent basis. College football is my specialty, but I will also be handicapping the NFL, the NBA and college basketball. 3. When will your newsletter get released each week? It will get emailed to you every Wednesday at Noon ET/9am PT. 4. Why aren t you doing a mailed version of your newsletter? In order for you to receive my newsletter in a timely manner, it would have to be completely written on Sunday and put in the mail first thing Monday morning. Personally, I would like to have the two extra days of gathering key information (reading injury reports, listening to coaches press conferences, etc) in hopes of picking you more winners. It seemed to work last year as in our first year we were the most accurate newsletter on the market! Also, college football totals lines get released on Tuesdays and I d like to include one or two of those in every issue (there s a lot value in CFB totals). 5. How will you rate your plays in the newsletter & how will they differ from your VIP service? My plays will be graded on a 1-5H scale with a 1H being the weakest and a 5H being the strongest. I will not have any 5H plays in my newsletter (those will only be given out to my VIP late phone service customers). Most of the time, my newsletter plays will be rated from 1-4H s. However, I will not have a set number of plays each week. I could have two 4H s one week and none the next. It all depends on whether or not I see any value in that particular week. Generally speaking, I will have 4-5 college plays each week and 2-3 NFL plays each week. Obviously, star-rated VIP plays that are released on gameday are stronger plays as they have more up-to-date information. I will also have more star-rated plays for my VIP customers (especially college totals). I will never go against a star-rated play in my newsletter. 6. Do I get any FREE bonuses for being a Powers Picks subscriber? I ll be perfectly frank here. If you re the type of customer that gets suckered in with a bunch of FREE bonuses like a 5H play, a $50 debit card, two weeks of NFL preseason, etc then I don t think I m the service for you. Your bonus with me is getting my services and newsletter discounted to some of the lowest prices on the market today (see page 8). You also get rare late week updates if there is late-breaking news on a star-rated play in the newsletter that severely affects the play (QB injured, weather, etc). With that being said, if you are wanting to try out my VIP service for FREE for two weeks so you become better familiar with my service, then I have no problem with that. Feel free to call 1-440-787-6614 and I ll get you set up. 7. Will you include your projected scores on all games in your newsletter? Yes. Download last year s issues of Powers Picks at bradpowerssports.com to get an idea of how my weekly write-ups will look. I will include my projected score on each game including all mid-week games! Obviously, the bigger the disparity between my projection and the actual line (both side and total) will tell you how strong my lean on the game is. 8. Will you have a FREE comp line with daily picks during football season? No. I think it is in my best interest to protect my paying customers. However, I will have FREE picks posted on my website (bradpowerssports.com) each week (1 college side, 1 college total and 1 NFL play). 9. Will you have any 5H plays, Games of the Month, Games of the Year? Yes. If there is one regret, I have to last season is that I didn t have enough big plays for my VIP customers! I will have big plays, but unlike most services on the market today, I will not market those plays a full week or two in advance which obviously is a marketing ploy to get you to spend more money. If there s value on game-day meaning the line is right, the injury report is good, I ve loved what I heard during the week from the coaches/players, I ve found a key piece of information (OL banged up, etc) that is getting overlooked by the public, then I ll release that 5H play (Games of the Month and Game of the Year included) to my VIP customers. However, you won t be hearing me advertise it all week on a FREE comp tape just so I can make a quick $100 from you on one, single play. 10. Will handicapping basketball get in the way of your football handicapping? No, I am a football first service!!! I will not be spending much time whatsoever on basketball until the college football bowl season is over with in early January. Most of you don t get involved in basketball anyways until March Madness. 11. Why are your prices lower than other services? First, my prices did go up a little from last year, but that is because last year s newsletter was given to you at cost. Even with a slight increase, I m still at a minimum 25% lower than any other newsletter out there (currently $75). I also want as many people on board with me regardless of what your budget is. I m in the business of establishing long-term customers and giving out a good first impression. Second, I think many services are over-priced and it really effects your year-end profit. I want to make you as much money as possible and if that s the case, my own profits will take care of themselves. 12. Do you lean with more favorites or dogs? Overs or Unders? I don t have a particular preference other than finding value and finding winners for my customers. However, I will say I am very anti-public so therefore I do have more underdogs and UNDER plays on my cards than most fly-by-night services. Let s face it, the public tends to lean with favorites and the OVER and there s a reason Vegas is a growing city. 13. Do you recommend getting other services? Depending on your budget, yes! I m a firm believer in that you can never have enough information at your fingertips and it s damn near impossible in today s day and age for one person or one service to have all of the answers and information. There are plenty of great services out there like Marc Lawrence s Playbook, the Gold Sheet, Power Sweep and Power Plays, etc that you should subscribe to in addition to my Powers Picks newsletter. What you need to be careful of is signing up for too many late phone services that sometimes can cost you thousands of dollars and that could really effect your year-end profits and bankroll. So as long as you budget accordingly, I think having multiple newsletters is not a bad thing and I personally try to subscribe to all of the major newsletters. 14. Can I buy individual plays from you? Not through my office, but this year you can buy individual plays, weeks and months from me at Pregame.com (more on that in the coming weeks). Keep in mind, anything can happen in one, single game or one, single week of action. Gambling is a marathon not a sprint. I d prefer you to sign up for my newsletter for the entire year or sign up for an entire year of my VIP service instead of picking and choosing certain plays and weeks to play on and pass on. That s how you can get really behind in this business. 15. Why did you move to Las Vegas? First, we had an opportunity to visit Las Vegas this past May and had numerous meetings with Sports Book directors, some of the biggest bettors in the industry and also some of the best handicappers in the world. These types of interactions will happen weekly during the football and basketball seasons and hopefully continue to give us an added edge over the competition. We firmly believe that with sports gambling becoming more popular and relevant with each passing year, you have to understand the betting markets that much more and not just solely rely on your gut instinct when it comes to games/plays. Another reason for the move was the BP Sports branding factor. While you are now familiar with the service and we continue to add new customers every week, the reality is we want to be the biggest, the most profitable and the most recognizable service in the industry while also maintaining that mom-and-pop store feel when it comes to customer service. Similar to a stock broker or real estate mogul wanting to be the best in their industry, therefore they would head to New York; In this industry, if you want to be the best, you head to Las Vegas and that s where we are! Continued on page 2

FAQ s about Brad Powers and BP Sports continued from page 1 16. What are your expectations for this year and what is a successful season? Obviously, every play I release both in my newsletter and for my VIP customers, I fully expect to win going into that game. However, while winning every game and hitting as close to 100% as possible is everyone s goal, it s just not reasonable in this industry to hit 80-90% winners on a consistent basis. Unlike what many services market to their customers, there are no sure things and guaranteed locks in this business and you ll never hear me advertise that way. Counting juice, about 52.5% winners are needed to break even. If you count in the money you paid for a particular handicapping service, then you probably need to hit closer to 55% mark to break even. It s when you get to that 57-60% mark on a consistent basis is where if you manage your money accordingly, you get solid profits (see page 8 for all my newsletter picks from last year). Obviously anything above 60% is icing on the cake and certainly I would be quite pleased with a 60% season. 17. Why should I pick your service? Like I mentioned earlier, there are a lot of great services out there that are worth a look. However, when your life and future continues to be on the line, you better win. When you bet your own games like I do (many handicappers don t bet their own plays), you better win. Quite frankly, I don t handicap with monopoly money like other services! When you can t afford to rest on past laurels and successes from seasons in the 1980s and 1990s, you better win. Finally, when you want to make a good impression and gain a long-term customer, you better win! Clearly winning cures everything and losing is not an option for me in any year!! I hope that helps answer many of your questions and if you have any further questions feel free to contact me at 440-787-6614 or email me brad@bradpowerssports.com. Regardless of whether you sign up with my service or not, I wish you the best of luck this season!!!

NFL Preseason Records 2012-2015 Below is a chart of each NFL team's preseason record since 2012. Your average bettor might find it hard to find anything worth "betting into" as preseason results from year-to-year quite often change due in large part to coaching turnover. However, if one dives into QB rotations, overall depth of a team, coaches press conferences, ATS trends, etc, one can find some value in the NFL preseason. A couple of great examples in finding value in the NFL preseason have come in the last 5-10 years. First, the Colts were historically poor performers during the Peyton Manning era going 5-25 SU and 9-20-1 ATS from 2005-11. On the flip side, the Lions were moneymakers under former head coach Jim Schwartz, racking up a five-year mark of 15-5 SU, 14-6 ATS. In terms of current trends, Seattle s Pete Carroll doesn't mess around with a 12-4 SU, 12-4 ATS record the last four seasons. Arguably one of the most intriguing preseason trends is evaluating first-year head coaches. Some feel that new coaches will have a desire to play well and get off to a good start. But recent results tell a different story. Teams with a first-year HCs went 7-13 SU, 10-10 ATS in 2012, 16-16 SU, 15-15-2 ATS in 2013, 12-12 SU/ATS in 2014 and 14-10 SU/11-13 last season. You got a ton of them this year with Cleveland, Miami, NY Giants, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Tampa Bay and Tennessee all with new head coaches. However, Hue Jackson (CLE), Chip Kelly (SF) and Mike Mularkey (TEN) do have preseason experience at other head coaching stops (see right). 2012 2012 2013 2013 2014 2014 2015 2015 Overall Overall Team SU ATS SU ATS SU ATS SU ATS SU ATS Arizona 1-4 0-5 3-1 3-1 1-3 2-1-1 2-2 2-2 7-10 7-8-1 Atlanta 1-3 1-3 0-4 1-3 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 5-11 6-10 Baltimore 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 4-0 4-0 1-3 2-2 9-7 10-6 Buffalo 0-4 1-3 2-2 2-2 1-4 1-4 2-2 2-2 5-12 6-11 Carolina 2-2 3-1 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-2 3-1 2-2 10-6 10-6 Chicago 3-1 3-1 2-2 1-2-1 2-2 1-3 3-1 3-1 10-6 8-7-1 Cincinnati 2-2 2-2 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-1-1 3-1 4-0 10-6 11-4-1 Cleveland 2-2 2-2 3-1 2-1-1 1-3 2-2 1-3 1-3 7-9 7-8-1 Dallas 3-1 2-2 2-3 2-3 0-4 1-3 1-3 0-3-1 6-11 5-11-1 Denver 2-2 2-2 2-2 1-3 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 10-6 9-7 Detroit 2-2 2-2 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 11-5 11-5 Green Bay 2-2 2-2 1-3 1-3 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-2 8-8 8-8 Houston 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 10-6 10-6 Indianapolis 2-2 3-1 2-2 2-2 0-4 1-3 1-3 1-3 5-11 7-9 Jacksonville 3-1 2-2 1-3 1-3 1-3 3-1 2-2 2-2 7-9 8-8 Kansas City 1-3 1-3 2-2 2-2 1-3 0-3-1 4-0 3-1 8-8 6-9-1 Los Angeles 2-2 3-1 1-3 1-3 1-3 2-2 0-4 0-4 4-12 6-10 Miami 0-4 0-4 2-3 1-4 3-1 1-3 1-3 0-4 6-11 2-15 Minnesota 1-3 1-3 1-3 1-3 4-0 3-1 4-1 4-1 10-7 9-8 New England 1-3 0-4 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-1-1 2-2 2-2 8-8 7-8-1 New Orleans 2-3 4-1 3-1 4-0 3-1 3-1 0-4 0-4 8-9 11-6 NY Giants 2-2 3-1 1-3 1-3 5-0 4-0-1 2-2 2-2 10-7 10-6-1 NY Jets 0-4 0-4 3-1 3-1 2-2 1-3 3-1 3-1 8-8 7-9 Oakland 1-3 2-2 1-3 1-3 2-2 1-3 1-3 1-3 5-11 5-11 Philadelphia 4-0 3-0-1 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 3-1 3-1 11-5 10-5-1 Pittsburgh 3-1 1-3 0-4 0-4 1-3 1-3 1-4 0-4-1 5-12 2-14-1 San Diego 3-1 3-1 1-3 2-2 2-2 1-2-1 2-2 4-0 8-8 10-5-1 San Francisco 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 2-2 2-2 2-2 1-3 10-6 9-7 Seattle 4-0 4-0 4-0 4-0 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 12-4 12-4 Tampa Bay 2-2 2-2 1-3 1-3 1-3 1-3 2-2 2-2 6-10 6-10 Tennessee 3-1 2-2 1-3 1-3 2-2 2-2 2-2 2-2 8-8 7-9 Washington 3-1 2-2 4-0 4-0 3-1 2-2 3-1 3-1 13-3 11-5 Brad Powers NFL Preseason Package Get every preseason NFL play released by Brad via email starting Sunday, August 7th through Thursday, September 1st Just $49 Hall of Fame Game Write-Up: Green Bay 17 Indianapolis 16. Expect there to be a split crowd for this one with the induction of former Packers QB Brett Favre along with Colts WR Marvin Harrison and head coach Tony Dungy. Green Bay hasn t played here since 2003 while the Colts last trip to Canton came in 2008. While we give a slight nod to the Colts QB rotation due to their experience, we do not like Indy head coach Chuck Pagano s recent performance in the preseason as he s gone just 1-7 SU/2-6 ATS the last 2 years. On the flip side, Green Bay has been rather steady under Mike Mc- Carthy in the preseason (8-8 SU/ATS) last 4 years. Both teams have been poor in preseason openers as Green Bay is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 while Indianapolis is 2-7 ATS in their last 9. While Green Bay is 26-14 ATS to the OVER under McCarthy in the preseason, the Hall of Game has averaged a total of just 31 ppg the last 10 years. Personally, we re sitting this one out as the best play here is to just sit back and relax and just be thankful football is back!!!

Week 1 CFB Computer Projected Lines We went over all your customer feedback forms from last year and one of the suggestions that was made multiple times was to have a computer section. Keep in mind, these computer lines don t take into consideration off-the-field factors like revenge or flat spots. They are basically a power-rating number difference between the two teams that also takes into consideration the home field advantage. As far as all the neutral sites go for Week 1, each game was treated differently. Some games got a clear neutral grade of 0 while other teams were awarded as many as a 2 point advantage depending on proximity to the schools (bigger fan edge) and also familiarity with the playing site.

The opening week of college football is now less than one month away and while there has been some major line movements in several games (including the Georgia St/Ball State line moving 8.5 points!), there are a few teams out there still offering up some value including a Missouri team poised for a bounce back season. While the Tigers will have a new head coach roaming the sidelines for the first time in 15 years (Gary Pinkel retired at the end of last season), Barry Odom is very familiar with the school having been a LB here in the mid-90 s while also serving as the DC here last year. His defense a year ago, was the lone bright spot on a team that had a disappointing 5-7 season. This year s defense could be even better thanks to the return of 8 starters including 5 of their top 6 tacklers. Their defensive line is one of the top 5 DL units in all of college football thanks to the return of all 4 starters plus the addition of 2014 star Harold Brantley who missed all of last year with injury. That defensive front was one of the big reasons why Missouri was No. 2 in the FBS last year in TFL per game. The problem with last year s team was an offense that ranked second to last averaging just 13.6 ppg and were also just No. 124 in total offense (averaging just 281 ypg). This year s offensive unit is much improved starting with QB Drew Lock who is now in his sophomore season. Lock is 6-4 and 221 lbs and has an NFL future. He will be surrounded by a pair of very talented graduate transfers in RB Alex Ross from Oklahoma and WR Chris Black from Alabama. These key transfers are getting little notice from the early markets and one of the reasons why Missouri is currently flying under the radar. On the other side, West Virginia looks better on offense this season, but do lose 9 of their top 13 tacklers on defense including four NFL draft picks (a significant loss for a program like WV). This defense could be susceptible to giving up a lot of points early in the season while the new starters adjust which leaves the back-door wide open for a much improved Missouri offense. The technicals are also in favor of the Tigers here as they are a respectable 28-16 ATS (64%) the last 10 years in non-conference action while also sporting a solid 12-5 ATS mark (71%) as an away underdog. Meanwhile, West Virginia has struggled as a home favorite under head coach Dana Holgorsen going just 9-15 ATS (37.5%). The early Noon start could see both teams slow out of the gates (favors the big dog) and my current power ratings have this line at West Virginia -8.5, a significant difference from the current -11.5 line which is above a couple of key numbers (10 and 11). I d suggest a 2-unit (2-star) play on Missouri +11.5 for week 1. Finally, above is a picture of our betting ticket placed on July 27th at Treasure Island. Keep in mind, unlike many other services we actually bet our own plays and when we say a 1H equals a $100 bet and a 2H equals a $200 bet, we mean it! BP Sports Moves CFB Off-Season Lines! In our June issue of Powers Picks, we offered several CFB Season Win Total Best Bets for the upcoming season (most via the South Point Casino in Las Vegas). However, since the release of that newsletter, nearly everyone of our selections has seen a massive line move with our recommendation (see below). In fact, of the 14 Best Bets, 13 of the teams have seen their season win total adjust by at least a 0.5 win and many of those even had added juice on the Money Line. Two teams saw incredible line movement as Miami, Fl went from OVER 6.5 Wins (-125) at South Point all the way up to OVER 8 Wins (+120). Meanwhile Ohio State at the Golden Nugget went from OVER 8.5 Wins (-115) to OVER 9.5 Wins (-140). As you can see our customers have great confidence in our off-season information and there s always value in betting those lines early. FYI, if you did not bet any of these season win totals, now is not the time to bet them and chase numbers. The value has clearly been lost!

2016 Position-By-Position Up/Downs for all 128 FBS teams! Since I don't handicap baseball, the summer months give me ample time to go through all 128 FBS teams team with a fine tooth comb for the upcoming college football season. One of the methods I use in coming up with some initial power ratings for each team are my position-by-position "Up/Downs." Basically, I go through every position of every team and give a value of "-3 to +3" for QBs, RBs, WR/TE, OL, DL, LBs, DBs, Special Teams, Coaches and Intangibles. A team with a "+3" for a single position means that I have that position power-rated up 3 from the previous season. A good example for this year would be UCF's receiver position. Last year they lost their top 4 receivers from 2014 and no WR had ever caught a TD pass in their career! They had to start 11 different receivers due to injury and moved over 2 QB's and a DB to fill in the gaps. Now this year they return their top 11 receivers and are vastly more experienced! A team with a "-3" for a single position means that I have that position power-rated down 3 from the previous season. A good example for this year would be Cincinnati's receiver position. Last year they returned their top 6 receivers and were one of the best in the Group of 5. This year they lose their top 6 receivers that combined for 3,912 receiving yards last year alone and incredibly had 10,471 receiving yards in their careers!!! Clearly, they are less experienced! With 10 different categories, the maximum value a team can be up or down from the previous season is 30. That +30 or -30 points rarely, if ever, happens and the only example I can give you in the last 10 years of a team be- ing nearly 4 TD's different (power ratings wise) from the previous season is UCF last year. The Knights went 0-12 (-23.8 ppg) in 2015 following a 9-4 season where they were +8.9 ppg. I had them power-rated -27 by the end of the season. The next closest was Georgia Tech at -14 who went from 11-3 and an Orange Bowl victory in 2014 to 3-9 including a 1-9 ATS mark in their last 10 games. Below are my "Up/Downs" for every position on every team. For the coach's category (CCH), new coaches can sometimes be downgraded because they are new to that program and don't know the strengths and weaknesses of the players yet. Also they could be installing new schemes on offense and/or defense and the current players might not fit their styles of play. One major caveat to that formula is Mark Richt at Miami, Fl who is a massive upgrade from Al Golden and the interim coach from last year. Finally, the intangibles category covers a broad range of categories including players lost to the NFL Draft, Close Wins/Losses, Strength of Schedule (is it weaker or stronger from last year?), Turnovers, Offensive and Defensive Yards per point, etc. A team like Michigan State was graded "-3" in that category because they benefitted from 6 wins by 7 points or less last year, were +14 in TO's and also lost 5 key players to the NFL draft (2nd most since 2000). As you can see UCF and Kansas both off 0-12 seasons are +14 and +12 respectively. Basically, that means I would favor this year's squads by 14 and 12 points over last year's editions. Navy with only one starter back on offense (lose all-everything QB Reynolds) is downgraded -11 off their record-breaking 11-2 season (most wins in school history).

2016 Initial College Football Power s (also Vegas s) There should be no surprise at who tops my initial power ratings as the defending National Champs are No. 1 in my preseason ratings heading into 2016. While the Crimson Tide do have some major question marks at QB and RB, they have signed my No. 1 recruiting class in the country for each of the last 5 years. Quite simply, they have the most talented roster and are coached by one of the greatest in the history of the game. These power ratings of mine are basically a Vegas rating as I would favor Alabama by at least one point over any other team in the country. It's tough making the Crimson Tide an underdog in any situation. They've only been an underdog once in the last 6 years and they hammered Georgia 38-10 (+2.5) in Athens last year in that role. However, the gap is a little closer this year between the Tide and the rest of the country. Last year's No. 2 team, Clemson could be even better in 2016 thanks to 8 returning starters on offense. They are led by the best QB in the country in DeShaun Watson who became the first player in CFB history to throw for more than 4,000 yards and run for more than 1,000 yards in a season (did play 15 games). The Tigers will have stiff competition in their own division as Florida State is also a Top 5 team with 17 returning starters. Remember the Seminoles get Clemson at home on October 29 (FSU is 11-1 vs Clemson in the last 12 meetings in Tallahassee). The SEC actually has 3 teams in my Top 6 as LSU is No. 3 thanks to the return of 17 starters including RB Leonard Fournette. Les Miles made a great hire in bringing in DC Dave Aranda who has led some of the best defenses in the country the last 3 years at Wisconsin (No. 1 in the country in that span allowing just 289 ypg). Expectations are also high in Knoxville as the Volunteers have their most talented and experienced team in 15 years. Remember the Volunteers lost four games last year by a total of 17 points blowing a lead in all four. Oklahoma is the prohibitive favorite in the Big 12 as I have the Sooners power-rated 9 points better than any other team. The Big Ten looks to go back to the old days with Michigan and Ohio State clearly the best two teams but beware of last year's defending conference champs in Michigan State who I still have power-rated at No. 15 (The Spartans host both Michigan and Ohio State and beat both teams on the road last year). Finally, the Pac-12 looks like it could be one of the most wide-open races in 2016. Defending champ, Stanford tops my initial ratings thanks to the return of all-everything Christian McCaffrey. However, dark horse National Title contender Washington is much improved in year 3 under Chris Petersen (I have the Huskies +9 over last year). In the South, USC and UCLA have very talented rosters (hence their Top 15 ratings), but both teams, specifically USC, also play difficult schedules. I hope these ratings are just another handicapping tool you can use in prepping for the upcoming season which is now only a month away! 1 Alabama 95.47 2 Clemson 94.58 3 LSU 94.52 4 Oklahoma 93.86 5
