The model's winner call: locked before the start, graded in public, built on the market's price.
TEM end zone ← 100 yards → ECU end zone
Colder by the end (70° to 62°). Wind is the direction it blows from. Halftime is about 1 hour 36 minutes in and the end about 3 hours 18 minutes in: a forecast, not a result.
A longer bar = a better setup for the offense: half from how high the offense ranks, half from how low the defense across from it ranks (of 137). A full bar is the best offense against the worst defense; the dashed tick is an even matchup. Biggest advantage first.
TEM has the clear advantage in rushing; ECU's defense has it in third-down conversion and finishing drives.
No clear gap on any of these: the two units rank close together.
TEM offense ranks better in 2 of 6 matchups (1 by a clear margin) · ECU defense in 4 (2 by a clear margin)
ECU offense ranks better in 3 of 6 matchups · TEM defense in 3
Each measure, offense vs opposing defense, ranked of 137 (1 = best). Favors: big rank gap. ▲▼: recent trend.

Each line is the number most books post, a step at each hour a book changed one, since we first priced the game; the band is the lowest and highest number any book had up then (ring = first seen, dot = the latest pull). Spread: higher = the home side laying more. The moneyline is the home side's win chance with the books' margin removed.
They meet only some seasons (2 of the 4 in our history). ECU have won the last 2.

The 6 measures where these two sit furthest apart among the league's 138 ranked teams, over each team's last 13 regular-season games (Oct 2025 – Oct 2026; 7 in 2026, 6 in 2025). A longer bar = higher in the league (rank 1 = highest, even for points allowed). A rank says where a number sits, not which side it points to.
