Florida State and Ole Miss cap off an opening week full of attractive matchups Monday night in a neutral-site game in Orlando, Florida. One side boasts a QB who enters his final year having thrown for 4,042 yards the season prior. The other doesn't have a quarterback for the ages, but rather a back who is a strong pick to win the Heisman Trophy.

Monday night's matchup should live up to all the expectations: a fast-paced contest that should stay competitive until the final drive.

What do the sims say?

AccuScore's spread on this matchup is a bit different than that listed in Vegas. At the time of publication, AccuScore's simulated point spread is about 3 points lower, suggesting a bit more value on Ole Miss.

Ole Miss covers a +5 spread in 57 percent of simulations.

Hot Trend Pick:
The total combined score stays UNDER in over 55 percent of simulations.

Betting Trend: Ole Miss is 9-2 in their last 11 season openers, averaging nearly 50 points per contest in their previous four. Of course FSU is a different kind of beast, but recent data clearly suggests the Rebels enter their seasons prepared.

Here's why Florida St. will win:
Simply put, they just have a better team than the Rebels. The Seminoles' front seven returns more talent and the Rebels offensive line is not nearly talented enough to compete at this stage of the season.

Actually, what's even more indicative of an FSU victory is that all 11 starters on offense returned. Expect the Ole Miss inexperience to lead to turnovers.

Here's why Ole Miss will win:
The receiving corp for Ole Miss is one of a kind and with QB Chad Kelly leading the way, there's no reason the Rebels can't shock FSU Monday night. The biggest argument against Ole Miss is their overall inexperience. Their senior QB, however, just might be [one of] the best player[s] in the country and he'll make up for a lot of that inexperience.

Chad Kelly averages 279 passing yards per sim; if he has a performance with better than average passing yards and at least a 2 to 1 TD to INT ratio (31% chance), the Rebels' winning probability goes from about 47 percent to 66 percent.

What is Accuscore?


Accuscore provides predictive analytics on sports, based on the company’s own algorithmic simulation engine which has been under constant development for almost two decades. Sports predictions are an outcome of simulations in which individual games are simulated for thousands of times in order to arrive to the most likely results. These results are then used to create analytical predictions, content and advice for bettors, pundits or any stakeholders in the industry or media field. For the individual US users, Accuscore’s predictions can be accessed through subscription to BetQL.

The Accuscore simulation engine uses the relevant historical data of the players, teams and leagues to predict the outcomes of the games before they have started. The simulation results are based on the individual player performances and weighted according to the teams’ form, opponent and other circumstances that have been proven relevant to the outcome of the match. We have managed to filter out the unnecessary data-points by determining which are important and which are not – this has taken several hundreds of thousands of simulations, cross-references and comparisons of simulation results to actual outcomes.

Accuscore aims to provide independent, unbiased and objective sports predictions for all the customers. We strive to be transparent and all our simulations results are available in the archives. Throughout the years Accuscore has worked with several betting companies, for example Pinnacle and Coolbet, media houses such as Telia and Sporing News, sports teams and leagues, and of course individuals through our subscription service.

Our capabilities include tailoring the sports predictions service to any B2B need with different licensing models, revenue sharing programs or affiliate markets. We can package content based on the simulations in several different ways, which can include automated widgets, unique articles, videos or pure numbers from a feed – whatever suits your needs!

How to use Accuscore sports predictions?

Accuscore’s simulations provide various advantages for both businesses and individuals. The simulations are based on a sovereign algorithmic system and all the simulations are always ran the exact same way. The only variables are the data inputs which the simulation engine then uses to create the sports predictions according to the algorithmic model. The model has a proven track record and for example the NFL picks have provided constant profit over the years.

The simulations provide probabilities for the outcomes of the games which include – depending of the sport – for example the most likely final result, the amount of goals or points and player performances. These sport predictions can be compared to odds in order to make a more educated betting decision or they can be used to support, oppose or adjust ones view on the betting market.

For businesses the sports predictions provide an opportunity to use original content in various forms which can be modified to suit any need, for example: providing more information to customers, attracting traffic or users, as unique content to publish or for other marketing purposes such as short videos for social media. We are happy to tailor our service for each B2B customer.
