Why can't the rotation numbers be in order of time?

Kruser6 · Sep 14, 2006

It would be so much easier

I understand that the times change, but don't they have enough notice?

No they do not have enough time. Its the decision of the college powers that be when it comes to the tv times, plus games of interest. They move people around quite a bit and its mostly based on what last weeks games did. Think ratings first.

I think they try to be, but numbers are assigned early, and times change.

SIA lists them by time ( no numbers).

They COULD if they really wanted

They COULD put the games in order by time, but it would involve reworking a system that has been in place for a long time, and there's no real incentive to make changes. I agree that it's a minor inconvenience, but hey, at least they use numbers. Imagine trying to find a game when every book had them in a different order and used a different numbering system.

Back in the old days, and I mean mine, there were different numbers and order.

How about in order of time and ALPHABETICAL by home team or something.

Canbet gets it right. They list all the teams alphabetically and you can just click on the team you want to see that game.

I think that Bodog also lists their games by time. It drives you crazy if you like to write down lines, but it makes it easier to bet them if you're an amateur.

Trackmybets.com does this also but they include the spreads. You can transport the file into a excel file and print out a pretty nice sheet.
