StatFox Super Situations ™ is a situational analysis that uncovers conditions and patterns where teams have consistently outperformed or underperformed their normal levels relative to the money line or spread. These systems are tabulated for ALL teams in the league and are not team specific. The principle is that teams fall into patterns regardless of personnel. Good passing teams, teams seeking revenge, cold teams on a losing streak, etc. Over time, these performance patterns tend to repeat themselves. The situations and teams favored may vary depending on whether you are looking at the ATS, Teaser, Halftime, or Money Line FoxSheets. In addition, these situations will either compliment or oppose an individual team's situational trends.

The StatFox Coach Power Trends uncover certain situations where a given coach's teams have outperformed or underperformed their normal level of play. The section will cover two time periods of trends. 1.) The coach's games with the current team. 2.) All games he has managed, regardless of team. Only trends which apply to the current game and possess exceptionally bad or good ATS records are displayed. These trends are great indicators of how teams react to certain situations – coming off a close win, against division opponents, after a loss giving up a high number of runs, etc. Many of these situations will provide a different level of motivation and preparation level for the game.

This section lists the key performance statistics for each team in various situations. StatFox provides applicable team stats when playing home or away. Categories where a team has performed poorly are denoted in red. Categories where a team has performed well are denoted in green. These stats can be critical when considering that many teams play vastly different when at home as opposed to on the road. Teams’ situational stats can serve as an excellent compliment to a trend or system that may be sided one way or another. Below each stat table is the average Power Rating of opponents played. Comparing the ratings is a good indication as to the validity of the stats they have compiled at any point of the season.
