Editorial Policy

Blue Chip Analytics · By Liam Browne · Last updated:

1. Editorial Purpose

Blue Chip Analytics publishes data-driven tools and analysis for college football fans and bettors. The site covers power ratings, weather conditions, travel disadvantage, home field advantage, and line value. All content is intended to provide structured analytical context, not guaranteed outcomes.

Blue Chip Analytics does not publish explicit picks or claim predictive certainty. Directional analysis — such as identifying games with significant weather or travel factors — is presented as context, not instruction.

2. Authorship and Accountability

All content on Blue Chip Analytics is produced by or under the direct oversight of Liam Browne, founder and data analyst. Tool pages, game pages, and articles are attributed to Liam Browne unless otherwise stated.

Blue Chip Analytics is an independently operated site with a named, identifiable author. Contact details are available on the contact page.

3. Data Sources

Blue Chip Analytics draws on external data providers for game schedules, team data, weather conditions, and market information. Core data sources include:

Data sources are named on individual tool and game pages where applicable. Blue Chip Analytics does not fabricate or estimate data where a primary source is available.

4. Methodology Standards

Ratings, calculations, and analytical outputs are produced by deterministic Python pipelines. Methods are applied consistently across all teams and games — no manual adjustments are made to favour particular outcomes.

Full methodology documentation is available at the Blue Chip Analytics methodology hub, including how power ratings are constructed, how travel distance and body-clock adjustments are calculated, and how weather thresholds are applied.

Blue Chip Analytics does not publish back-tested performance figures unless those figures have been independently calculated, documented, and verified.

5. Recommendation and Value Standards

Blue Chip Analytics provides analytical context to support informed decision-making. Content is not financial advice and should not be treated as such. Users are responsible for their own betting decisions.

Where directional language is used — for example, identifying a game as a high-wind or high-travel spot — this reflects the data at the time of publication. Conditions can change closer to kickoff and users should verify current information before acting on any analysis.

6. Commercial Independence

Blue Chip Analytics does not currently receive sportsbook affiliate commissions or paid placements. Tool rankings, game analysis, and data outputs are not influenced by commercial relationships.

Full funding and conflict-of-interest information is available at the funding disclosure page. If commercial relationships change, this policy and the funding disclosure will be updated before those relationships appear on the site.

7. AI-Use Policy

Blue Chip Analytics uses AI tools to assist with drafting plain-English summaries on game and tool pages. Core data — ratings, weather values, travel calculations, spread comparisons, and generated tables — comes from structured data pipelines and deterministic Python scripts, not AI generation.

AI-assisted text is reviewed before publication. AI is not used to generate data values, ratings, or statistical claims. Full AI-use details are available at the AI-use disclosure page.

8. Updates and Corrections

Game pages are updated each time the data pipeline runs. Tool pages are refreshed weekly during the season. Trust and policy pages are updated when policies change — not on a cosmetic schedule.

Errors in data, ratings, or factual content are corrected promptly. The corrections process is documented at the corrections policy page. Significant corrections are noted on the affected page.

9. Reader Feedback

Readers who identify errors, have questions about methodology, or wish to provide feedback can contact Blue Chip Analytics via the contact page. All feedback is reviewed by Liam Browne directly.
