Vector sides are every game on a week that publishes a full side map, and Best Bets plus Leans on earlier weeks. Best-bet units use the stated size, or flat 1U when none is stated. Pick 5 counts when Vector published one.

Week 5 2026: no finals yet, so those picks are left out of the records above.
