Kevin Keefe solved the NBA board and still watched summer send him an invoice. All five win-total calls hit, producing 248.5 and a share of 3rd, the cleanest work on his card by a mile.
That performance had company. The Hurricanes returned 130 inside a 314.81 hockey haul and 14th place, while Indiana's title run carried the College Football Playoff to 29th. For a stretch, Keefe looked insulated.
The World Cup brought 35 points and 216th, followed by 121st in golf. Those closers cost him 36 places. At 1358, Keefe shared 93rd, his perfect NBA read left to absorb the standings' harsher last word.
