On this episode of The Football Analytics Show, Rob Pizzola, a data driven sports bettor, joins me to talk football and hockey analytics.
Among other topics, we discuss:
- what drove him to take a numbers based approach to betting (1:34)
- the frustrations of running a tout site (6:40)
- how to build a model for the NFL (9:45)
- the next generation hockey statistic Rob uses for the NHL (23:44)
- the problem and solution for evaluating goalies (26:48)
Rob brought an honest and open perspective to his work, and he even offered help to those with questions.
