While this is interesting in aggregate (notice how scoring went up 5 ppg and the over/under edge for the home team went from 36-30 to 43-29) it is not likely that all the games were in play. If he was truly "throwing games", it was probably not more than one game a week or so. Don't want to go to the well too often.

I guess if I paid more attention in Statistics class I could pick up other trends, from the aggregate numbers, but that's what I get for taking a course graded on a curve, LOL.
