Four configurations. Three score engines.

Website release: PASS

150 current events:107 unique NCAA Division I football games, MLB1 postseason, NHL14 regular season, WNBA1 postseason, MLS14 and UFC13 bouts. NFL, NBA and NCAA men’s basketball have no current events.122events have four numeric baselines; Chicago State has Classic/Primary only. MLS/UFC have no registered score engines. Adjusted output remains unavailable where replacement effects or overlap cannot be estimated. ON/OFF intentionally share score arithmetic. Probabilities are not calibrated, and agreement is not a betting edge. Only the explicitly named OFF board below assigns published wager tiers.

Published OFF board

Pick of the Day: Oklahoma State Cowboys at Houston Cougars — Houston Cougars -4.5 (-110)

OFF spread gate passed with no unresolved high or medium availability risk. The recorded adverse branch retained a positive 1.96-point cushion. Fresh full-game quote confirmed before publication.

Bonus Pick: Cincinnati Bearcats at West Virginia Mountaineers — Cincinnati Bearcats +2 (-113)

OFF spread gate passed. One medium model-direction disagreement remains disclosed; the retained adverse branch still held a 4.08-point cushion. Fresh full-game quote confirmed before publication.

Free Pick A: UT Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros at Incarnate Word Cardinals — UT Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros +3 (-110)

Both ON and OFF spread gates passed. Two medium risks require the lower Free tier; the retained adverse branch held a 6.70-point cushion. Fresh full-game quote confirmed before publication.

Free Pick B: Charlotte 49ers at Temple Owls — Under 47.5 (-105)

Both ON and OFF total gates passed. Two medium risks require the lower Free tier; the retained adverse branch held a 5.96-point cushion at the frozen gate line. Fresh full-game total was confirmed before publication.

Scope and audit

The registered scores, replacement branches, trade pathways and sporting inputs were retained before the forecast freeze. Independent desk findings and event-specific invalidation branches were reconciled before the freeze. The final publication board does not force a selection into a tier.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Mississippi State Bulldogs: QB reference pool Kamario Taylor, Parker Puckett, Brodie McWhorter; RB reference pool Fluff Bothwell, Kolin Wilson, Xavier Gayten; WR reference pool Anthony Evans III, Sanfrisco Magee, Marquis Johnson; TE reference pool Sam West, Joeseph Skipworth, Riley Williams. Official MSU/LSU previews confirm Taylor lead QB, Bothwell lead RB. Conditional Puckett passwork and Wilson/Gayten rushwork, separate offense pathways; no automatic penalty for probable Evans or nonmain Williams. Kamario Taylor: Doubtful; Fluff Bothwell: Doubtful LSU Tigers: QB reference pool Sam Leavitt, Landen Clark, Husan Longstreet; RB reference pool Dilin Jones, Harlem Berry, Stacy Gage; WR reference pool Winston Watkins Jr., Jackson Harris, Eugene Wilson III; TE reference pool Trey'Dez Green, Zach Grace, JC Anderson. Green14 catches is receiving TE leader versus Grace1; redistribution also reaches Watkins/Harris/Wilson. Remaining TE precise snaps unknown; same-team receiving participation supports current familiarity, no protection premium. Trey'Dez Green: Out

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Tiger Stadium (LA); listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 60 F, 63 F, 66 F, 69 F, 71 F, 72 F; winds 15 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Florida Gators: QB reference pool Aaron Philo, Tramell Jones Jr., Will Griffin; RB reference pool Jadan Baugh, Duke Clark, Evan Pryor; WR reference pool Dallas Wilson, Bailey Stockton, Vernell Brown III; TE reference pool Luke Harpring, Amir Jackson, Lacota Dippre. Official Oct16 preview confirms Philo shoulder issue and Jones significant weekly reps; Clark out→Pryor behind Baugh. Brown absent past2 games; Stockton23/Brown17 catches support main receiving roles. Singleton limitation is older than latest SEC report and branch only if material. Passing losses overlap; total replacement carries cannot increase just because multiple players absent. Aaron Philo: Questionable; Vernell Brown III: Questionable; Bailey Stockton: Questionable; Duke Clark: Out; Eric Singleton Jr.: Available in latest official SEC report; older material-limitation sensitivity dormant (role qualification conditional) Texas Longhorns: QB reference pool Arch Manning, Karle Lacey Jr., Dia Bell; RB reference pool Raleek Brown, Hollywood Smothers, Derrek Cooper; WR reference pool Ryan Wingo, Cam Coleman, Emmett Mosley V; TE reference pool Emaree Winston, Nick Townsend, Spencer Shannon. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 57 F, 60 F, 63 F, 66 F, 68 F; winds 10 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Cincinnati Bearcats: QB reference pool JC French IV, Liam O'Brien, Samaj Jones; RB reference pool Gi'Bran Payne, Cole Tabb, Zion Johnson; WR reference pool Isaiah Johnson, JV Gibson, Larenzo Fenner; TE reference pool Gavin Grover, Lyviel Waters, Kellen Davis. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. West Virginia Mountaineers: QB reference pool Michael Hawkins Jr., Scotty Fox Jr., Max Anderson; RB reference pool Cam Cook, Amari Latimer, Martavious Boswell; WR reference pool DJ Epps, Jaden Bray, Prince Strachan; TE reference pool Ryan Ward, Josh Sapp, Xavier Anderson. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Milan Puskar Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 48 F, 50 F, 51 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Kansas Jayhawks: QB reference pool Isaiah Marshall, Cole Ballard, Chase Jenkins; RB reference pool Dylan Edwards, Yasin Willis, Jalen Dupree; WR reference pool Nik McMillan, Cam Pickett, Nahzae Cox; TE reference pool Carson Bruhn, Jailen Butler, Leyton Cure. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Kansas State Wildcats: QB reference pool Avery Johnson, Blake Barnett, Jacob Knuth; RB reference pool Rodney Fields Jr., Joe Jackson, Jay Harris; WR reference pool Jaron Tibbs, Josh Manning, Brandon White; TE reference pool Garrett Oakley, Will Anciaux, Linkon Cure. Oakley16 catches versus Anciaux6/Cure5 is primary receiving TE; conditional distribution to both and Tibbs/Manning. Barnett/Duff are reserves behind Johnson163attempts; no QB headcount deduction. Garrett Oakley: Questionable

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Bill Snyder Family Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 43 F, 48 F, 52 F, 55 F, 57 F, 59 F; winds 0 mph, 5 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Memorial Stadium (Clemson, SC); listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Pittsburgh Panthers: QB reference pool Holden Geriner, Corey Dailey; RB reference pool Damon Ferguson Jr., La'Vell Wright, Ja'Kyrian Turner; WR reference pool Cataurus Hicks, Censere Lee, Bryce Yates; TE reference pool Carson Kent, Elijah Lagg, Truitt Brown. Weekly official depth Turner RB1 but newer ACC Out supersedes. Wright/Ferguson OR receives carries; Geriner QB1/Dailey2 confirmed. Lagg7 catches is secondary to Kent19; loss reviewed, no additional primaryTE deduction. QB/RB joint separates passing operation from assigned rush opportunities, receiving overlap unestimated. Mason Heintschel: Out; Ja'Kyrian Turner: Out Boston College Eagles: QB reference pool Mason McKenzie, Enzo Arjona, Femi Babalola; RB reference pool Evan Dickens, Bo MacCormack III, Nolan Ray; WR reference pool Javarius Green, Dawson Pough, Johnathan Montague Jr.; TE reference pool Brady Clough, Zeke Moore, Danny Edgehille. McKenzie official preview primary QB. Swanson57Colgate catches and Chudzinski24BC catches in2025 require historical covered-role review; current intended main role not verified, so isolated deductions are conditional on retained material role, not on report headcount. Green/Pough/Montague WR and Clough/Moore TE handle existing current work. Reed Swanson: Out (role qualification conditional); Kaelan Chudzinski: Out (role qualification conditional)

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Ohio State Buckeyes: QB reference pool Julian Sayin, Luke Fahey, Tavien St. Clair; RB reference pool Bo Jackson, Ja'Kobi Jackson, Isaiah West; WR reference pool Jeremiah Smith, Devin McCuin, Brandon Inniss; TE reference pool Nate Roberts, Mason Williams, Maxence LeBlanc. Jackson 59 carries is material alongside Bo Jackson89; West22 is remaining proven rotation. WR Smith48/916/11 independently confirmed official midseason release; no WR injury trigger established for reserve Boyd. Ja'Kobi Jackson: Out Indiana Hoosiers: QB reference pool Josh Hoover, Grant Wilson, Tyler Cherry; RB reference pool Lee Beebe Jr., Turbo Richard, Sean Cuono; WR reference pool Charlie Becker, Nick Marsh, Davion Chandler; TE reference pool Trevor Gibbs, Andrew Barker, Brock Schott. Official preview identifies Hoover, Becker/Marsh and Beebe/Richard as core; Martin has no recorded2026 opportunity and Barker1 catch is not established primary receiving option. Both are availability risks; no headcount deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Memorial Stadium (Bloomington, IN); listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 48 F, 51 F, 52 F, 55 F; winds 7 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Northwestern Wildcats: QB reference pool Aidan Chiles, Nicco Marchiol, Ryan Boe; RB reference pool Caleb Komolafe, Gavin Sawchuk, Joseph Himon II; WR reference pool Griffin Wilde, Drew Wagner, Ricky Ahumaraeze; TE reference pool Luke Dehnicke, Alex Honig, Tyler Kielmeyer. Dehnicke11 receptions and Honig9 establish receiving TE tandem; unavailable Dehnicke targets shift to Honig and Wilde/Wagner, no invented TE blocking conversion. Petrucci has no usable current opportunity record, reviewed as unresolved depth risk rather than healthy. Luke Dehnicke: Out Michigan State Spartans: QB reference pool Alessio Milivojevic, Cam Fancher, Peyton Babbitt; RB reference pool Jaziun Patterson, Marvis Parrish; WR reference pool Chrishon McCray, Rodney Bullard Jr., Fredrick Moore; TE reference pool Jayden Savoury, Brennan Parachek, Kai Rios. Official MSU notes: Edwards4starts season-ending injury; Patterson led rushing last3games with51carries209yards versus10/46 first3. Milivojevic10straightstarts makes Fancher backup absence, not startingQB trigger. Official14 unavailable players include OL Murawski6starts and defensive starters; no numerical defensive/OL conversion. Cam Edwards: Out

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Spartan Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 42 F, 45 F, 48 F, 51 F, 52 F; winds 2 mph, 3 mph, 5 mph, 7 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Army Black Knights: QB reference pool Cale Hellums, Bryson Luter, Ethan Washington; RB reference pool Godspower Nwawuihe, Carson Smith, Jake Rendina; WR reference pool Zach Mundell, Samari Howard, Stroman Bridges; TE reference pool Parker Poloskey, Tex Brannan, Jackson Blanchard. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Michie Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 51 F, 52 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Doyt L. Perry Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 44 F, 47 F, 48 F, 50 F, 52 F; winds 3 mph, 5 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph, 9 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Hampton Pirates: QB: Xavier Brookins; RB: Donovan Shepard; Gracen Goldsmith; WR: Chaz Portis; Noah Colon; Isaiah Smith; TE: Dedrick Borden. Oct15 official preview says Woods was lost to injury after starting first three games; Taylor replaced him and Brookins completed 13/22 for191 yards and TD at Howard. Current exact starting split unannounced. Official Oct15 preview calls Pryear injured and still team-leading214 rushing yards after three-plus games. Shepard/Goldsmith recent carries identify redistributed committee; exact split unknown. Sacred Heart Pioneers: QB: Poochie Snyder; RB: Chuck Webb; Darius Chukwuemeka; WR: Jason Palmieri; Dean Hangey; Nick Gentilella; TE: Jimmy Casey. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Campus Field; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 52 F; winds 14 mph; Cloudy, Mostly Cloudy, Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Rhode Island Rams: QB: Tyler Budge; RB: Brendon Barrow; Terrence Campbell; Gabe Winowich; WR: Marquis Buchanan; Aboraa Kwarteng; Jamall Mensah; TE: Will Dixon. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Yale Bulldogs: QB: Dante Reno; RB: Hugo Djeumeni Kemeni; WR: Jaxton Santiago; Lucius Anderson; Reid Jones; TE: Graham Smith. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 4 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Yale Bowl; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 51 F, 52 F; winds 13 mph, 14 mph, 15 mph; Cloudy, Mostly Cloudy, Partly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Brown Bears: QB: James Murphy; RB: Matt Childs; WR: Pearson Hill; Carson Hill; Michael Nesbit; TE: Levi Linowes. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Princeton Tigers: QB: Wyatt Becker; RB: Kai Honda; Ethan Clark; WR: Josh Smith; Josh Robinson; Aidan Besselman; TE: Joey Wassler. Josh Robinson returned lastweek from earlier injury per officialpreview; current availability notconfirmed but no newabsence inferred.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 10 prior regular-season games, 4 current; home: 10 prior regular-season games, 4 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Princeton Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 51 F, 52 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Mostly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Central Connecticut Blue Devils: QB: Brett Griffis; RB: Davon Smith Jr.; John Manning IV; WR: Michael Trovarelli; Damani Williams; Elijah Daniels; TE: Arturo Johnson Jr.. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Mercyhurst Lakers: QB: Alex Gevaudan; RB: Jameir Gamble; WR: Dylan Evans; Evan Van Dyke; Amare Lattimore; TE: Camden Lewis. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Saxon Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 45 F, 46 F, 47 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

New Haven Chargers: QB: Niko Boyce; RB: Zaon Laney; WR: Dominic Grguric; Matt Chandler; Tommy Troy; TE: Jeremy Caspe. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Robert Morris Colonials: QB: Carson Haggard; RB: Xavier Goulbourne; Donta Whack; Breyon Williams; WR: Jaqai Carter; Galen Combs; Noah Schaerli; TE: Tyreke Jinks. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 10 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Joe Walton Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 44 F, 46 F, 48 F, 49 F, 50 F; winds 12 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Duquesne Dukes: QB: Carson Camp; RB: Ness Davis; Shawn Solomon Jr; Dazhaun Hopkins; WR: Ryan Petras; Zae-Mear Correll; Antwon Thomas; TE: Noah Canty. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Stonehill Skyhawks: QB: Jack O'Connell; RB: Aidan Garrett; Shane Eason; WR: Alijah Turner; Jaylin Baker; Khalil Wilson; TE: Cole Clarke. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

W.B. Mason Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 48 F; winds 13 mph, 14 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Slight Chance Rain Showers. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Georgia State Panthers: QB reference pool Cameran Brown, Ayden Pereira, Gavin Nuckolls; RB reference pool Lanear McCrary Jr., Qwantavius Wiggins, Dennis Murray Jr.; WR reference pool Rodshaun Dorsey, DJ Riles, Derrick Avery Jr.; TE reference pool Grant Hollier, Avion McBride, Wesley Campbell VI. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. James Madison Dukes: QB reference pool Camden Coleman, JC Evans, Arrington Maiden; RB reference pool George Pettaway, Nick Herman, Seth Cromwell; WR reference pool Corey Scott, Braeden Wisloski, Michael Scott; TE reference pool Cole Keller, KD Mosley, Ryder Post. Official preview Coleman plus returned Evans QB rotation; no availability deduction on healthy return. CoreyScott21 catches versus Wisloski16/MichaelScott15 main WR conditional absence; Pettaway and Keller key receiving options retained. Corey Scott: Questionable

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Bridgeforth Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T16:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 51 F, 52 F, 53 F, 54 F; winds 15 mph, 16 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

The Citadel Bulldogs: QB reference pool Quentin Hayes, Nick Billoups, Xavier Hill; RB reference pool Gavin Garcia, Michael Lorino, Sebastien Boyle; WR reference pool Ismael Zamor, Damir Abdullah, Braylon Knauth; TE reference pool Whit Hobgood, Jude Claborn, Noah Lucas. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Texas A&M Aggies: QB reference pool Marcel Reed, Brady Hart, Helaman Casuga; RB reference pool Rueben Owens II, KJ Edwards, Carsyn Baker; WR reference pool Mario Craver, Isaiah Horton, Ashton Bethel-Roman; TE reference pool Houston Thomas, Kiotti Armstrong, Micah Riley. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Lincoln Financial Field; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 52 F, 53 F; winds 15 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Partly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Massachusetts Minutemen: QB reference pool William Watson III, Aedan McCarthy, Logan Inagawa; RB reference pool Elijah Faulkner, Curtis Kimmons IV, Jordan Washington; WR reference pool T.Y. Harding, Jabari Lewis, Joseph Griffin Jr.; TE reference pool Max Dowling, Reece Adkins, Jax Markovich. Official Oct13 preview says Watson missed Miami game injured. McCarthy33attempts/Inagawa6 current replacements; Watson return branch uses base, absence uses -3. No announcement treated as clearance. William Watson III: Missed last game injured; current return unannounced Buffalo Bulls: QB reference pool Jason Wright, Elijah Holmes, Mason Cumbie; RB reference pool Messiah Burch, Nino Hill, James McNeil Jr.; WR reference pool Chance Morrow, Jaylen Andrews, Dwayne Early Jr.; TE reference pool Clint Walker, Trevor Wilson, Michael Gelatko. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Broadview Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 45 F, 47 F, 48 F; winds 10 mph, 7 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Bryant Bulldogs: QB: Brennan Myer; RB: OJ Ross; Jordan Bennett; Kendrick Agenor; WR: Sean Wilson Jr.; Shamar Fowles; Jose Leon; TE: Maximus Nosler. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Maine Black Bears: QB: Caden Drezek; RB: Rashawn Marshall; Nick Laughlin; WR: Evan Wallace; Malik McNeely; Keyon Concepcion; TE: Elijah Smalls. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Harold Alfond Sports Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 43 F, 44 F, 45 F, 46 F; winds 14 mph, 16 mph, 17 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Monmouth Hawks: QB: Frankie Weaver; RB: Kenny Smith Jr.; Elijah Jennings; WR: Gavin Nelson; Tra Neal; Christian Harrison; TE: Marcus Middleton. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. New Hampshire Wildcats: QB: Brooks Bentley; RB: Myles Thomason; Joquez Smith; WR: Ja'Carree Kelly; Ryan Ricketti; Logan Perez; TE: Drew Danson. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Wildcat Stadium (NH); listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 48 F, 49 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Merrimack Warriors: QB: AJ Hairston Jr; RB: Matthias Latham; Galamama Mulbah; DeMarcus McElroy; WR: Austin Palmer; Kenyon Massey; Stephon Patrick; TE: Andrew Korkosz. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Dartmouth Big Green: QB: Grayson Saunier; RB: Myles Craddock; WR: Ky'Dric Fisher; Nick Lemon; James Elliott; TE: Kyle Meier. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 10 prior regular-season games, 4 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Memorial Field (Dartmouth); listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 42 F, 43 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 13 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Holy Cross Crusaders: QB: David Lynch; RB: Joseph Williams; Jake Croce; Datrell Jones; WR: Ty Curran; Lincoln Fisher; Myles Abernathy; TE: Mason McSweeney. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Harvard Crimson: QB: Charlie Smith; RB: Xaviah Bascon; WR: Nate Bailey; Ryan Tattersall; Henry Shoemaker; TE: Teigan Pelletier. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 11 prior regular-season games, 4 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Harvard Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 48 F, 49 F, 50 F; winds 16 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Georgetown Hoyas: QB: Gavin Beard; RB: Clay Ash; Jayden Sumpter; WR: Hassan Mahasin; Jonathan Alexander; Jayvin Pyle-Thompson; TE: Isaiah Grimes. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Colgate Raiders: QB: Jake Stearney; RB: Danny Shaban; Caleb Naumann; WR: Matt Fogler; Winston Moore; Kam Phillips; TE: Michael Stevenson. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Andy Kerr Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 41 F, 42 F, 44 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Dayton Flyers: QB: Bryce Schondelmyer; RB: Luke Hansen; Mason Hackett; Noah Spencer; WR: Michael Mussari; Gavin Lochow; Ethan Thulin; TE: Donovan Weatherly. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Butler Bulldogs: QB: Gabe Passini; RB: Desmin Jackson; Michael Dellumo; Sam Manna; WR: Nick Munson; Chet Yardley; Michael Nix; TE: Drew Sullivan. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

away: 11 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 51 F, 53 F, 55 F; winds 5 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph, 8 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Morehead State Eagles: QB: Bryce Patterson; RB: Craig Cunningham; Jackson Lanier; Blake Fisher; WR: Anthony Ice; Cannon Dinger; Riley Purcell; TE: Will Richardson. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Davidson Wildcats: QB: Casey Bullock; RB: Brodey Berg; Will Jones; WR: Jacary Lightsey; AJ Adams; Andrew Frazier; TE: Jack Perozek. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Richardson Stadium (Davidson, NC); listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 59 F, 60 F, 61 F, 62 F; winds 15 mph, 16 mph, 17 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Marist Red Foxes: QB: Sonny Mannino; RB: Isaiah Simmons; Lincoln Cardillo; WR: Zach Garmont; Reed Shumpert; Jayden Taylor; TE: Joey Bemis. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Drake Bulldogs: QB: Riley Warzynski; RB: Cody Blicharz; Kavaughn Clark; Adrien Robbins; WR: Willis Nofsinger; Mitchell January; Hank Foley; TE: Jake Scobey. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Drake Stadium (IA); listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 54 F, 56 F, 57 F, 58 F; winds 7 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

McNeese Cowboys: QB: Jake Strong; RB: Omiri Wiggins; Tre'Vonte Citizen; WR: Elisha Edwards; Curtis Deville; Kameran Senegal; TE: Reed Boyd. Official Sep25 report: Lippold hand injury Sep19, out forseason. Strong resumed starter after opening-game shoulder injury;11starts2025 and opener2026 establish familiarity. CurrentOct16 preview/lastLSUbox retained; Barrier relief not evidence of Strong injury. Northwestern State Demons: QB: Zach Wilcke; RB: Zay Davis; Sage Ingram; WR: Brendan Webb; Jimmie Duncan; Camryn Davis; TE: Joseph Moreland. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Turpin Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 62 F, 65 F, 69 F, 70 F, 71 F, 72 F; winds 10 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

NJD: Official projected lines omit ill Evangelista (third consecutive absence), Brown and Bjugstad. Glass expected despite maintenance. Lombardi/Glass/Boqvist fourth line and Mantha/Rodrigues/Noesen third line; no fresh full-player deduction for already absent reference roles. WSH: Dubois ruled out fourth consecutive game; Sourdif illness uncertain, Roy questionable. Official projected third-line Ilya Protas and fourth-line Sourdif are conditional. Sandin unavailable. No invented return minutes or combined loss penalty.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 82 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 82 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 2853. 2025/26 regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean, no goalie or venue bonus

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Capital One Arena; listed 2026-10-17T17:00Z. Official NHL regular-season stage, opponents, kickoff and arena agree; Centre Bell/Bell Centre language alias and Crypto.com casing normalized.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

VMI Keydets: QB: Ian Reynolds; RB: Leo Boehling; WR: Traveion Slaughter; Halim Hardnett; Cole Varner; TE: Cade Cox. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Wofford Terriers: QB: J.T. Fayard; RB: Gerald Modest Jr.; WR: Isaiah Scott; Terrence Honeywood; Colby Alexander; TE: Jack Ewell. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Gibbs Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T17:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 62 F, 64 F; winds 12 mph, 13 mph, 14 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Lehigh Mountain Hawks: QB: Derek Morgan; RB: Luke Yoder; WR: Nick Palumbo; Anthony Feaster; Jamaire Harden; TE: Joseph Marranca. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Cornell Big Red: QB: Garrett Bass-Sulpizio; RB: Jordan Triplett; Ean Pope; WR: Samuel Musungu; Brendan Lee; Ja'von Broussard; TE: Ryder Kurtz. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 10 prior regular-season games, 4 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Schoellkopf Field; listed 2026-10-17T18:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 45 F, 46 F, 47 F; winds 12 mph, 13 mph, 7 mph, 9 mph; Clear, Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

South Dakota State Jackrabbits: QB: Chase Mason; RB: Josiah Johnson; WR: Jack Smith; Grahm Goering; Lofton O'Groske; TE: Coleman Kuntz. Official Oct14 notes expect Mason return Oct17 after Sept19 injury. Depth chart Mason ahead of Holst; if return holds no -3. If absent/limited, Holst branch applies. Holst has two2026 starts, NIU2024 starts and familiarity with OC Eric Eidsness from NIU. North Dakota Fighting Hawks: QB: Jerry Kaminski; RB: Charles Langama; Matt Lawson; Griffin Broderick; WR: Deng Deng; Korey Tai; Cameron Weir; TE: Nathan Hromadka. Official UND Oct13 notes report coach announced season-ending injury Sep28 from IndianaState game. Goodloe was third receiver with16 catches209yards2TD in fivegames, a material main-unit role. Other receivers absorb workload; no one-for-one target allocation assumed.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 14 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Alerus Center; listed 2026-10-17T18:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor flag from sanitized schedule; roof-specific operations not independently confirmed.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Austin Peay Governors: QB: Chris Parson; RB: Courtland Simmons; Isaiah Groves; Corey Richardson; WR: Marvin Sims; Denver Harper; Jaden Robinson; TE: Jackson Head. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. West Georgia Wolves: QB: Colton Fitzgerald; RB: Justin Montgomery; Christian Monfort; WR: T.J. Lockley; DK Daniel; Brody Jones; TE: Josh Schuchts. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 11 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

University Stadium (GA); listed 2026-10-17T18:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 61 F, 62 F, 63 F, 64 F; winds 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Presbyterian Blue Hose: QB: Landon Sharpe; RB: Damion Moate; Jackson Burleson; WR: Caleb Johnson; Brice Johnson; Anton Smith; TE: Ethan Medley. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Stetson Hatters: QB: Thomas Von Grote; RB: Troy Flowers; WR: Wyatt Rogers; Landon Farco; Shawne Jones; TE: Anthony Benzija. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Spec Martin Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T18:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 70 F, 72 F, 74 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Slight Chance Rain Showers. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

West Alabama Tigers: QB: Luther Richesson; RB: Brayden Jenkins; WR: TD Parker; Jaylon York; Madixx Morris; TE: Griffin McLean. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. West Florida Argonauts: QB: Ty’ray Davis; RB: Markel Townsend; WR: Brite Cannon; Tyshon Mansell; Luc Carroll; TE: Jake Robinette. Official UWAOct16 preview identifies Ty’rayDavis as UWFleader; seasonDavis79attempts vsLeary54 and recentLeary usage preserved. Current starter unconfirmed; no injurycause inferred.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 9 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Pen-Air Field; listed 2026-10-17T18:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 67 F, 70 F, 71 F, 72 F; winds 20 mph, 25 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

UAlbany Great Danes: QB: Kai Colon; RB: Rahshan La Mons; Joey Koch; WR: BJ Norman; Tavahri Groves; Jordan Rae; TE: Nick Petrillo. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Stony Brook Seawolves: QB: Quinn Boyd; RB: CJ Hester; Jeremiah Coney; WR: Seth Sweitzer; D.J. Linkins; James Dely; TE: Keiden Gutierrez. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T18:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 51 F, 52 F, 53 F; winds 14 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Clear, Mostly Cloudy, Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Eastern Kentucky Colonels: QB: Jordyn Potts; RB: Brady Hensley; Brayden Latham; WR: Elijah Caldwell; Jarvis Hayes; Jackson House; TE: Caeleb Schlachter. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles: QB: Jax Leatherwood; RB: M.J. Flowers; WR: Gabe Nunez; Tre' Holloway; Eric Weatherly; TE: Lazaro Rodriguez. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Tucker Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T18:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 56 F, 57 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

No supported quantitative matchup adjustment; preserve source facts, unestimated effects and PASS.

ConstitutionOwl

Subaru Park; listed 2026-10-17T18:30Z. Official MLS identity, kickoff and venue corroborated. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 51 F, 52 F, 53 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Partly Cloudy, Partly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Lafayette Leopards: QB: Daniel Lipovski; RB: Jakyre Henley; Malachi Gamble; WR: Mason Kuehner; Carson Persing; Matthew Scerbo; TE: Hunter Ditrano. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Bucknell Bison: QB: Emmett Dowling; RB: Michael Cadden; Ty Stauffer; WR: Sam Milligan; TJ Cadden; Owen Garwood; TE: Tom Arth. RalphRucker injury/ChrisDietrich firststart passage in currentPDF is historical2025 Lafayette recap, not fresh2026 absence.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 44 F, 47 F, 49 F, 50 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 14 mph, 5 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Mostly Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Idaho Vandals: QB: Joshua Wood; RB: Damonte Bias; Hayden Kincheloe; Ferrari Miller; WR: Tony Harste; Ryan Jezioro; Zack Card; TE: Noah West-Baranco. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Montana Grizzlies: QB: Keali'i Ah Yat; RB: Eli Gillman; WR: Brooks Davis; Landon Ransom-Goelz; Lekeldrick Bridges; TE: Mariano Birdno. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Washington-Grizzly Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. Montana13MT and Idaho12PT both equal15ET; NCAA epoch incorrectly indicates18ET. Retain vendor15ET. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 55 F, 61 F, 64 F, 65 F, 66 F, 68 F; winds 12 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Idaho State Bengals: QB: Jordan Cooke; RB: Tytan Mason; Carson Sudbury; WR: Chedon James; Julian Mason; Tommy Poe; TE: . No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Weber State Wildcats: QB: Nate Dahle; RB: Seth Rigtrup; Spencer Ferguson; Omar Shah; WR: Noah Kjar; Robert Young; Marvin Session; TE: Ammon Munyer. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Stewart Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 61 F, 63 F, 64 F, 65 F, 66 F; winds 2 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Lindenwood Lions: QB: Pops Battle; RB: Jared Rhodes; Steve Hall; WR: Drew Krobath; Jalen Smith; Elijah Roy; TE: Aiden Grote. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Eastern Illinois Panthers: QB: Cole LaCrue; RB: Charles Kellom; WR: Devin Whitlock; Samuel Gonzalez; Landers Green; TE: Alex Ginnever. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

O'Brien Field; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 56 F, 57 F, 58 F, 59 F; winds 0 mph, 2 mph, 3 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Gardner-Webb Runnin' Bulldogs: QB: Lan Farmer; Jared Doolittle; RB: Christian Vann; Randy Young; WR: Kory Jones; Giovanni Adopte; Jalile Bost; TE: Beau Blankenship. Oct13 game notes list Doolittle OR Farmer at QB, Pennington sidelined by injury. Farmer debuted for96 passing yards and58 rushing yards. Neither is assigned sole starter. UT Martin Skyhawks: QB: Tate Surber; RB: Chris Franklin; Tommy Ansley; Jaydon Peete; WR: Makhia Sherrard; Kaleb Washington; Deuce Oliver; TE: Connie Hewitt II. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Hardy M. Graham Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 56 F, 59 F, 60 F, 61 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Western Illinois Leathernecks: QB: Kennedy McGill; RB: Ihson Jackson-Anderson; Avery Knight; Josh Robinson; WR: Jacob Kania; Christian Anaya; Xavier Coleman; TE: David Hargro. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Southeast Missouri State Redhawks: QB: Braylen Ragland; RB: Khyair Spain; Tyrell Reed Jr.; Payton Brown; WR: Jobe Bryant; John Anthony Jr.; Tristin Purnell; TE: Andrew Civey. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Houck Field; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 58 F, 59 F, 60 F, 61 F; winds 3 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph, 8 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Grambling Tigers: QB: Jacobe Robinson; RB: D'Shuan Ford; Jamarion Parker; WR: Tyson George; Jordan Bride; Nae'Saan Dickerson; TE: Patrick Williams II. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Alabama A&M Bulldogs: QB: Cornelious Brown IV; RB: Kolton Nero; Byron Perrilliat; Troy Bruce; WR: Jarel Williams; Jaylan Bean; Jordan Chambers-Smith; TE: Jaxson Davis. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Louis Crews Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 61 F, 62 F, 63 F, 64 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Alabama State Hornets: QB: Aaron Frye; RB: Jamarie Hostzclaw; WR: Kareem Keye; Randall King; Nehemiah Hixon; TE: Jordan Brown. Sep30 MontgomeryAdvertiser coach report says nonthrowing wrist cast and unknownreturn. OfficialOct9 recap confirms Frye current starter use. Oct17 status not silently upgraded OUT; conditional continued-absence branch retained. Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions: QB: Garrison Davis; RB: Jaylen Jennings; Za'Marion Webber; WR: Demetric Whitlock; D'Avery Robinson; Jordan Jackson; TE: Dwayne Simmons. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 11 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Simmons Bank Field; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 63 F, 65 F, 66 F, 67 F; winds 10 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Alcorn State Braves: QB: Jaylon Tolbert; RB: Fredrick Robertson; Ernest Temple; Carl McDonald Jr.; WR: Armon Wright; Tyree Kelly; Jamarr Ebron; TE: Caleb Anderson. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Prairie View A&M Panthers: QB: Tevin Carter; RB: Chase Bingmon; Jahbari Kuykendall; Ky'Yon Harris; WR: Damien McDaniel; Rodny Ojo; Chaney Fitzgerald; TE: Travon Jones. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Panther Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 66 F, 67 F, 68 F, 69 F, 70 F; winds 10 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Bethune-Cookman Wildcats: QB: Tyler Jefferson; RB: Rashon Brown; WR: Willie Anderson; Josh Evans; Rickie Shaw II; TE: Micheal Walker. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils: QB: Josh Brown; RB: Norman Taylor; Dezmond Ray; Carter James; WR: Caleb Brownlow; Nicholas Buggs; Christian Bond; TE: Jaylen King. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Rice-Totten Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 67 F, 68 F, 70 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Florida A&M Rattlers: QB: Armond Parker; RB: Jamal Hailey; Chase Gillespie; WR: Corey Petty; Kieren Jackson; Jaquan Lee; TE: Tamez Young. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Jackson State Tigers: QB: Caron Tyler; RB: Nate Blount IV; Emari Matthews; Li'Darius Pryor; WR: Nate Rembert; Jabari Jones; Jaden Lockhart; TE: Jency Riley Jr.. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 68 F, 69 F, 70 F, 71 F; winds 15 mph, 20 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Auburn Tigers: QB reference pool Byrum Brown, Tristan Ti'a, Rhys Brush; RB reference pool Jeremiah Cobb, Omar Mabson II, Bryson Washington; WR reference pool Keshaun Singleton, Chas Nimrod, Jeremiah Koger; TE reference pool Jake Johnson, Arlis Boardingham, Jonathan Echols. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Georgia Bulldogs: QB reference pool Gunner Stockton, Ryan Puglisi, Ryan Montgomery; RB reference pool Dwight Phillips Jr., Chauncey Bowens, Bo Walker; WR reference pool Talyn Taylor, Craig Dandridge, Sacovie White-Helton; TE reference pool Lawson Luckie, Elyiss Williams, Jaden Reddell. Bowens35 carries versus Phillips37/Walker30 establishes material committee. Canion33GeorgiaTech2025 catches but3Georgia2026 is documented change of school, no automatic trade or assumed primary role; no deduction absent Georgia main-role evidence. Chauncey Bowens: Out

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Sanford Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 63 F, 67 F, 68 F; winds 10 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Missouri Tigers: QB reference pool Austin Simmons, Matt Zollers, Nick Evers; RB reference pool Jamal Roberts, Xai'Shaun Edwards, Anthony Favrow; WR reference pool Cayden Lee, Donovan Olugbode, Shaun Terry II; TE reference pool Brett Norfleet, Jordon Harris, Gavin Hoffman. Hardy2025Missouri256carries1649yards16TD established absent lead; Roberts147current carries now lead and Edwards36 next. Norfleet9 receiving catches leadsTE, Harris replacement current reception evidence unavailable; WRLee/Olugbode proven redistributed targets. Conditional TE scenario does not fabricate Harris production. Separate run/pass opportunity groups; long-standing Hardy absence already partly in baseline disclosed. Official Missouri notes hosted by Ole Miss p18 list Norfleet OR Jordon Harris, Jude James behind; p16 confirms Harris6games2starts this season,13/6 in2025,12/6 in2024 despite no2026reception row. Ahmad Hardy: Out; Brett Norfleet: Questionable Ole Miss Rebels: QB reference pool Trinidad Chambliss, Deuce Knight, George Hamsley; RB reference pool Kewan Lacy, Makhi Frazier, JT Lindsey; WR reference pool Deuce Alexander, Horatio Fields, Traylon Ray; TE reference pool Caleb Odom, Luke Hasz, Michael Smith. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Vaught-Hemingway Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 63 F, 64 F, 65 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Alabama Crimson Tide: QB reference pool Keelon Russell, Austin Mack, John Cooper; RB reference pool Daniel Hill, Trae'shawn Brown, EJ Crowell; WR reference pool Lotzeir Brooks, Ryan Coleman-Williams, Rico Scott; TE reference pool Kaleb Edwards, Marshall Pritchett, Josh Ford. Tennessee official preview explicitly calls Coleman-Williams Alabama leading WR out; Brooks23/Scott18 top replacements. Ford1catch is reserve receivingTE relative Edwards10/Pritchett9. Center DelgattyOut creates protection uncertainty, no invented extra coefficient. Ryan Coleman-Williams: Out Tennessee Volunteers: QB reference pool Faizon Brandon, George MacIntyre, Ryan Staub; RB reference pool DeSean Bishop, Daune Morris, Javin Gordon; WR reference pool Braylon Staley, Mike Matthews, Radarious Jackson; TE reference pool DaSaahn Brame, Trent Thomas, Ethan Davis. Brandon omitted from latest adverse SEC statuses; coachOct12 left starter open, MacIntyre49attempts also current option. Healthy tactical choice gets no -3. EthanDavis21rec2025/3rec2TD2026 season-out reviewed conditional primary-role branch; Brame9/Thomas6 now proven TE work. No automatic third TE penalty. Ethan Davis: Out (role qualification conditional)

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Neyland Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 55 F, 57 F, 58 F, 59 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Clear, Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Arizona State Sun Devils: QB reference pool Cutter Boley, Mikey Keene, Jake Fette; RB reference pool Kyson Brown, Cardae Mack, Marquis Gillis; WR reference pool Reed Harris, Omarion Miller, Raiden Vines-Bright; TE reference pool AJ Ia, Khamari Anderson, James Giggey. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Texas Tech Red Raiders: QB reference pool Will Hammond, Thomas Castellanos, Kirk Francis; RB reference pool J'Koby Williams, Cameron Dickey, Quinten Joyner; WR reference pool Kenny Johnson, Coy Eakin, Micah Hudson; TE reference pool Terrance Carter Jr., Jett Carpenter, Matt Ludwig.

JalenJones and DonteLee prior other-school production retained, but currentmainroles not established above Johnson/Eakin/Hudson; Q/Out depth uncertainty without automatic -3. Cameron Dickey: Out

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Galaxy Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 54 F, 56 F, 58 F, 59 F; winds 0 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets: QB reference pool Alberto Mendoza, Grady Adamson, Cole Bergeron; RB reference pool Justice Haynes, Trelain Maddox, Malachi Hosley; WR reference pool Jordan Allen, Dalen Penson, Isaiah Fuhrmann; TE reference pool Kevin Roche Jr., Chris Corbo, Gavin Harris. Haynes87lead; Maddox25current replacement; Hosley16 material-role condition only. Two missing RBs share one rushwork pool; model assumptions retain isolated branches and joint3, not6lost drives. Justice Haynes: Doubtful; Malachi Hosley: Out (role qualification conditional) Virginia Tech Hokies: QB reference pool Ethan Grunkemeyer, Bryce Baker, Troy Huhn; RB reference pool Jeffrey Overton Jr., Marcellous Hawkins Jr., Messiah Mickens; WR reference pool Que'Sean Brown, Ayden Greene, Davion Brown; TE reference pool Luke Reynolds, Benji Gosnell, Ja'Ricous Hairston. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Lane Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 46 F, 49 F, 50 F, 51 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 13 mph, 9 mph; Clear, Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Penn State Nittany Lions: QB reference pool Rocco Becht, Alex Manske, Connor Barry; RB reference pool Carson Hansen, James Peoples, Quinton Martin Jr.; WR reference pool Chase Sowell, Brett Eskildsen, Koby Howard; TE reference pool Benjamin Brahmer, Andrew Rappleyea, Gabe Burkle. Howard12 catches third WR behind Sowell23/Eskildsen19 supports main rotation; lost targets redistribute those WRs plus coTE Brahmer/Rappleyea17each. Sowell probable preserved as probable. Koby Howard: Out Michigan Wolverines: QB reference pool Bryce Underwood, Tommy Carr, Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi; RB reference pool Jordan Marshall, Savion Hiter, Bryson Kuzdzal; WR reference pool Andrew Marsh, JJ Buchanan, Salesi Moa; TE reference pool Hogan Hansen, Jalen Hoffman, Eli Owens. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Michigan Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 48 F, 51 F, 52 F, 53 F; winds 5 mph, 6 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

UNLV Rebels: QB reference pool Jackson Arnold, Alex Orji, Sebastian Circo; RB reference pool Jai'Den Thomas, Jaylon Glover, Darrien Jones; WR reference pool Taz Reddicks, Taeshaun Lyons, Kayden McGee; TE reference pool Keyan Burnett, Jae Beasley II, Matt Byrnes. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Air Force Falcons: QB reference pool Liam Szarka, Evan Medders, Kemper Hodges; RB reference pool Owen Allen, Rocco Conti, Oswaldo Morales; WR reference pool Adam Hrynciw, Matt Long, Jonah Dawson; TE reference pool Simon Kibbee, Henry Barbisch, Mitchell Blakeslee. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Falcon Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 65 F, 68 F, 69 F; winds 10 mph; Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Rynearson Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 52 F, 53 F; winds 5 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Yager Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 52 F, 53 F; winds 2 mph, 5 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Towson Tigers: QB: Jacob Davis; RB: Kemarrion Battles; Xavier Pugh; WR: Aaron Enterline; Cleveland Charlton; Jashaun Amin; TE: CJ Schaeffer. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Campbell Fighting Camels: QB: Kamden Sixkiller; RB: JJ Cowan; Jon Gullette; Ethan Lawrence; WR: Jyron Waiters; Spencer Jones; Chinua Ezeigbo; TE: Brady Ambrose. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Barker-Lane Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 53 F, 55 F, 56 F, 57 F; winds 13 mph, 15 mph, 17 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Partly Cloudy, Partly Sunny, Slight Chance Light Rain. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Morehouse College Maroon Tigers: QB: Miles Scott; RB: Chase DeVaughn; Savion Red; WR: Jeremiah Gibson; Noah Rhodes; TE: Gabriel Bivines. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Howard Bison: QB: Ja'Shawn Scroggins; RB: Travis Kerney; Billy Roberson II; Eden James; WR: Semaj Pierre; Se'Quan Osborne; Zaden Jackson; TE: Nathanial Clark. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 10 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Greene Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 51 F, 53 F, 54 F, 55 F; winds 10 mph, 13 mph, 14 mph, 15 mph; Mostly Clear, Mostly Sunny, Partly Cloudy. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Villanova Wildcats: QB: Pat McQuaide; RB: Ja'briel Mace; Isaiah Ragland; WR: Braden Reed; Brandon Binkowski; Jake Hilton; TE: Nolan Clayton. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Fordham Rams: QB: Gunnar Smith; RB: Jamell James; Yohan-Li Louis; WR: Ricky Gonzalez II; Nodin Tracy; KJ Reed; TE: John Morris. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Moglia Stadium at Jack Coffey Field; listed 2026-10-17T19:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 47 F, 50 F, 51 F, 52 F; winds 10 mph, 12 mph, 13 mph, 9 mph; Clear, Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

CAR: Hall week to week and Staal absent; Jarvis has not been cleared despite travel and possible weekend return. Nadeau and Unger Sorum recalled and projected to play. Nadeau second line, Unger Sorum fourth line, Jankowski third-line center and Kotkaniemi fourth-line center; no confirmed PP units. WPG: Namestnikov and Morrissey week to week. Bjork center/Perfetti wing and Fleury-StIvany pair in official projection. Same skater lineup as prior game expected. Duehr expected AHL assignment after clearance; not presumed active.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 82 prior regular-season games, 8 current; home: 82 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 2853. 2025/26 regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean, no goalie or venue bonus

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Atlanta and Golden State have separate conditional 200-minute rotations tied to recent postseason boxes. Allisha Gray remains an unresolved Out versus earlier practice/DTD evidence branch; Rupert, Villa and Jones retain their distinct absence reasons. DeWanna Bonner’s official signing date was resolved as August27,2026 from the team archive and article metadata; it is a signing, not a trade. Two prior seasons and current team-split histories remain separate. No supported player-to-points adjustment or live-tier activation.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 44 prior regular-season games, 44 current; home: 44 prior regular-season games, 44 current. Primary training games 660. 2026 season-label full regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean with retained venue term

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Illinois State Redbirds: QB: Gage Roy; RB: Victor Dawson; Tyler Lofton; WR: Dylan Lord; Ian Willis; Stevan Gavric; TE: Alex Herrera. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Southern Illinois Salukis: QB: DJ Williams; RB: Chandler Chapman; WR: Kyle Thomas; Allen Middleton; Markell Quick; TE: Miles Marshall. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Saluki Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T20:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 53 F, 57 F, 58 F, 60 F; winds 2 mph, 3 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Valparaiso Beacons: QB: Rowan Keefe; RB: Cedric Benning Iii; Michael Rumoro; Ashton Allen; WR: Chris Gundy; Micah Mackay; Daniel White; TE: Colin Hayes. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. San Diego Toreros: QB: Dom Nankil; RB: Adam Criter; Omar Mbakwe; WR: Elijah Taylor; Cole Monach; Christopher Hall; TE: Carter Pruitt. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Torero Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T20:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 84 F, 86 F, 87 F, 88 F; winds 0 mph, 5 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks: QB: Gavin Rutherford; RB: Jaylen Jenkins; Speedy Jones; Preston Alford; WR: Bugs Mortimer; Clayton Wayland; Stetson Sarratt; TE: Gerard Edimo. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Nicholls Colonels: QB: Ean Rodrigue; RB: Tamaj Hoffman; Shane Lee; WR: Jordan Smith; Greg Donaldson; Ellis Stewart; TE: Treylin Whaley. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

John L. Guidry Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T20:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 67 F, 69 F, 70 F, 71 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

VAN: Official October15 transaction moved Raty to Toronto for Quillan/Buhr. Current lineup page still lists Raty scratched for VAN: stale roster element overridden by dated transaction. Quillan/Buhr new assignment unconfirmed; no invented current minutes. Merilainen projected goalie separate from skater overlay. TBL: Goncalves projected to return after healthy scratch, second line with Guentzel/Point. James projected fourth-line center; Gourde remains unavailable. Hildeby expected goalie, separate base component. PP allocation conditional.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 82 prior regular-season games, 9 current; home: 82 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 2853. 2025/26 regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean, no goalie or venue bonus

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

South Dakota Coyotes: QB: Austyn Modrzewski; RB: Charles Pierre Jr.; Carson Fletcher; WR: Brayden White; Tysen Boze; Tennel Bryant; TE: Jesse Miller. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Murray State Racers: QB: Baxter Wright; RB: Mykel Allen; Tyrell Campbell; WR: Jaxon Potter; Trey Firestone; Dimitri Howard; TE: Ty Brown. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Parker Fields

Long Island University Sharks: QB: Luca Stanzani; RB: Sam Slade; Nathan Gray; Jesiah Mcknight; WR: Evan Brooks; Joseph Young; Jayden Simpson; TE: Tristin McFarland. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Wagner Seahawks: QB: Benjamin Newman; RB: Matt Morad; Sekou Kamau; Shawn James; WR: Zion Fowler-El; Malik Redd; Jeremiah Colclough; TE: Christopher Harris. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Hameline Field at Wagner College Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T21:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 48 F, 49 F, 50 F, 52 F, 54 F; winds 12 mph, 13 mph; Mostly Clear, Mostly Sunny, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Lamar Cardinals: QB: Aiden McCown; RB: Jojo Uga; Parker Jenkins; LaDamion McDowell; WR: Blake Thomas; Brit Simmons; Kyndon Fuselier; TE: Davin Driskell. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. SE Louisiana Lions: QB: Kyle Lowe; RB: Chad Elzy Jr.; Deantre Jackson; Calvin Smith Jr.; WR: Dkhai Joseph; Tristan Goodly; Desmen Jefferson; TE: Lonnie Shinn. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Strawberry Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T21:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 61 F, 66 F, 69 F, 71 F, 73 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Troy Trojans: QB reference pool Goose Crowder, Tucker Kilcrease, Jack James; RB reference pool Gavin Griffin, Jaheim Merriweather, Jordan Lovett; WR reference pool Howard Kinchen, TK Keyes, Jace Petty; TE reference pool Nick Hampton, Fabian Rogosch, Jackson Worley. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns: QB reference pool Lunch Winfield, Daniel Beale, Sam Altmann; RB reference pool Steven Blanco, Anthony Reagan Jr., JJ Garner; WR reference pool Russell Babineaux, Trenton Chaney, Landon Strother; TE reference pool Caden Jensen, Brock Chappell, Teddy Gawlik. Strother11catches tied second WR with Chaney, Babineaux14lead. Out affects main route group; Chaney/Babineaux and Jensen/Chappell receivingTE distribute conditional opportunities. Duplicate Darell/DarrellSmith status names not two players/overlays. Landon Strother: Out

Uncle Sibursam

away: 13 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Our Lady of Lourdes Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T21:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 66 F, 67 F, 70 F, 71 F, 72 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Northern Iowa Panthers: QB: Jaxon Dailey; RB: Christian Collins; Xavier Terrell; Michael Bormann; WR: Jaiden Ellis-Lahey; Tay Norman; Ayden Price; TE: Brady McCullough. Ellis-Lahey and TayNorman injury discussion concerns2025; do not mark them OUT2026. Currentroles include BradyMcCullough primaryreceivingTE. Youngstown State Penguins: QB: Beau Brungard; RB: Jaden Gilbert; WR: Lynn Wyche-El; Bryan Hunt; Jeremiah Sanders; TE: Austin Bray. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Stambaugh Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T22:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 39 F, 40 F, 42 F, 46 F, 49 F, 50 F; winds 0 mph, 1 mph, 3 mph, 5 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Mostly Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

SEA: Latest official actual skater/strength workload compared with current roster and dated availability flags. Final game lineup/PP units unavailable at overnight capture; explicit same-reference and absence/return workload branches retained. FLA: Latest official actual skater/strength workload compared with current roster and dated availability flags. Final game lineup/PP units unavailable at overnight capture; explicit same-reference and absence/return workload branches retained.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 82 prior regular-season games, 8 current; home: 82 prior regular-season games, 8 current. Primary training games 2853. 2025/26 regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean, no goalie or venue bonus

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Amerant Bank Arena; listed 2026-10-17T22:00Z. Official NHL regular-season stage, opponents, kickoff and arena agree; Centre Bell/Bell Centre language alias and Crypto.com casing normalized. No outdoor weather adjustment. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor arena; no direct outdoor playing-surface exposure.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Morgan State Bears: QB: Cameron Edge; RB: Keith Jenkins Jr.; Jordan Barnett; Dorian Harris; WR: Justin Perry; Joseph Towler; Quavel Thornton; TE: Malachi Bryant. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Tennessee State Tigers: QB: Daylin Lee; RB: Brenton Paul; Zach Simmons-Brown; WR: Cam Bulluck; Jayden Guy; Brock Montgomery; TE: Francisco Pratts III. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Nissan Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T22:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 53 F, 57 F, 61 F, 62 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Arkansas Razorbacks: QB reference pool KJ Jackson, AJ Hill, Braeden Fuller; RB reference pool Sutton Smith, Braylen Russell, Cam Settles; WR reference pool Chris Marshall, Ismael Cisse, CJ Brown; TE reference pool Ty Lockwood, Jaden Platt, Matt Adcock. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. Vanderbilt Commodores: QB reference pool Jared Curtis, Blaze Berlowitz, Whit Muschamp; RB reference pool Sedrick Alexander, Makhilyn Young, Jamezell Lassiter; WR reference pool Junior Sherrill, Tristen Brown, Ja'Cory Thomas; TE reference pool Jayvontay Conner, Cole Spence, Walter Taylor. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

FirstBank Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 49 F, 50 F, 53 F, 57 F, 61 F, 62 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

McLane Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 56 F, 58 F, 60 F, 63 F, 65 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Hard Rock Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 77 F, 78 F, 80 F; winds 10 mph, 6 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Showers And Thunderstorms, Showers And Thunderstorms Likely. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Fargodome; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor flag from sanitized schedule; roof-specific operations not independently confirmed.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Abilene Christian Wildcats: QB: Tucker Parks; RB: Rovaughn Banks Jr.; WR: Cristian Driver; Romelo Boykin; Raydrian Baltrip; TE: Jayden York. Dallas Dudley scored firstTD after earlyseason injuries; officialnotes say fourWRformation and JC French-Love firststart. Return/formation changes not newinjury deductions. North Alabama Lions: QB: Destin Wade; RB: Chris McMillian; Roderick Taylor Jr.; Jalen Fletcher; WR: Xavier Johnson; Snap Reed; KJ Fields; TE: Eli Sisson. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Braly Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Montana State Bobcats: QB: Justin Lamson; RB: Adam Jones; WR: Dane Steel; Taco Dowler; Carter Dahlke; TE: Rocky Lencioni. Oct14 official preview expects Lamson return after missed time. Duchien started the last two games; return branch no deduction, continued absence branch isolates -3. Oct14 official preview expects Jones return. Current role and recent Coon workload are compared; Jones absence/limitation is a conditional branch only. Eastern Washington Eagles: QB: Nate Bell; RB: Malik Dotson; Kevin Allen III; Jaxon Bell; WR: Wesley Garrett; Drew Carlson; Rylin Lang; TE: Kayden Stuit. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 14 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Roos Field; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 51 F, 54 F, 58 F, 61 F, 62 F; winds 12 mph, 21 mph, 7 mph, 8 mph, 9 mph; Mostly Clear, Partly Cloudy, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Portland State Vikings: QB: Tyrese Smith; RB: Delon Thompson; WR: Terence Loville; Cru Newman; Jason Robinson Jr.; TE: Tanner Beaman. OfficialOct5 preview explicitly describes openQBcompetition among Downing/Smith/Sagapolutele; a healthy starter change gets no availability deduction. CurrentOct17 starter remains unresolved. Northern Arizona Lumberjacks: QB: Ty Pennington; RB: Quran Gossett; Kenveon Stone; WR: Joey Stout; Myseth Currie; Deuce Zimmerman; TE: Jeter Purdy. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

J. Lawrence Walkup Skydome; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor flag from sanitized schedule; roof-specific operations not independently confirmed.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Central Arkansas Bears: QB: Donovyn Omolo; RB: Jalen Washington; Cameron Young; WR: Dakarai Anderson; Ty Durham; Tyrell Pollard; TE: Kealen Juniel. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Tarleton State Texans: QB: Kaden Anderson; RB: Tylan Hines; Miequle Brock; WR: Marquis Willis; Tanner Schmidt; B.J. Fleming; TE: Danny Joiner. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 13 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Tarleton Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 48 F, 49 F, 51 F, 56 F, 60 F; winds 0 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

UT Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros: QB: Aidan Jakobsohn; RB: TJ Dement; Brennan Carroll; WR: Kyran Lee; Jaydon Smith; Corey Holmes; TE: Tyler Day. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Incarnate Word Cardinals: QB: Emmett Brown; RB: Lontrell Turner; Jayden Hibbler; Damashja Harris; WR: Isaiah Champagne; Price Morgan; Jacob Emmers; TE: Cedric Lott Jr.. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Gayle and Tom Benson Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 59 F, 61 F, 65 F, 67 F, 68 F, 70 F; winds 5 mph; Mostly Clear, Partly Cloudy, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Mercer Bears: QB: JP Pickles; RB: Devon Caldwell; Zahmari Palode-Gary; WR: Brayden Smith; Travion Solomon; Eric Rasheed; TE: Jackson Kostmayer. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Samford Bulldogs: QB: Gabarri Johnson; RB: Domonique Thomas; Ken Cherry; Emerson Russell; WR: Preston Bird; Marquise Henderson; Cayden Aukerman; TE: Maddox McKim. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Seibert Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 51 F, 52 F, 54 F, 56 F, 61 F, 63 F; winds 10 mph, 15 mph, 20 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

East Texas A&M Lions: QB: Luke Glass; RB: Quay Middlebrooks; EJ Oakmon; Major McBride; WR: Micah Simpson; Andrez Lewis; Tanner Harrison; TE: Sean Sallis. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Houston Christian Huskies: QB: Cutter Stewart; RB: Champ Dozier; Elijah Harris; Jaylen Middleton; WR: Jamaal Hall II; Ja'Ryan Wallace; Trayjen Llanas-Wilcox; TE: Mason Graham. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Husky Stadium (TX); listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 63 F, 64 F, 66 F, 67 F, 70 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Partly Cloudy, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

DAL: Back out four to six weeks; Johnston illness remains in Dallas, travel/participation conditional. David Perron new signing October16 requires role check but is not an in-season trade. Expected game minutes unannounced. CHI: Byram missed prior game with upper-body injury. Current availability conditional; June23 acquisition precedes current-season trade window and remains in baseline roster history.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 82 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 82 prior regular-season games, 8 current. Primary training games 2853. 2025/26 regular-season offense/opposing-defense arithmetic mean, no goalie or venue bonus

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

United Center; listed 2026-10-17T23:00Z. Official NHL regular-season stage, opponents, kickoff and arena agree; Centre Bell/Bell Centre language alias and Crypto.com casing normalized. No outdoor weather adjustment. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor arena; no direct outdoor playing-surface exposure.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Stanford Stadium; listed 2026-10-17T23:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 70 F, 76 F, 82 F, 88 F; winds 2 mph, 3 mph, 6 mph, 7 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

JMA Wireless Dome; listed 2026-10-17T23:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Indoor flag from sanitized schedule; roof-specific operations not independently confirmed.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Wisconsin Badgers: QB reference pool Colton Joseph, Deuce Adams, Ryan Hopkins; RB reference pool Darrion Dupree, Abu Sama III, Bryan Jackson II; WR reference pool Tyrell Henry, Chris Brooks Jr., Eugene Hilton Jr.; TE reference pool Jacob Harris, Grant Stec, Emmett Bork. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction. UCLA Bruins: QB reference pool Ty Dieffenbach, Madden Iamaleava; RB reference pool Wayne Knight, Anthony Woods, Jaivian Thomas; WR reference pool Semaj Morgan, Brian Rowe Jr., Landon Ellis; TE reference pool Brayden Loftin, Noah Fox-Flores, Josh Phifer. Nico official notes5starts, OutB10; Ty live secondhalfOct10, Maddenconditional alternative. Matthews33rec2025 but4rec/1start2026 main-role uncertainty retained separately. QB/WR passing risks overlap; joint3 with optional isolated6 sensitivity if independent burden established. Knight71/Woods45/Thomas32 RB and Loftin receivingTE reviewed with no listed covered trigger. Nico Iamaleava: Out; Mikey Matthews: Out (role qualification conditional)

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Rose Bowl; listed 2026-10-17T23:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 76 F, 83 F, 88 F; winds 5 mph; Mostly Sunny, Partly Cloudy. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

Cal Poly Mustangs: QB: Anthony Grigsby Jr.; RB: Jaden Green; Misa Paiau; WR: Tayvion McCoy; Fidel Pitts; Ray Hall; TE: Alek Marshall. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Northern Colorado Bears: QB: Keegan Patterson; RB: Justin Guin; WR: Marcus Mozer; Trey Olsen; Garrett Harstad; TE: Brayden Welch. Official safetyfeature discusses injury-driven secondary role shifts without quantified current availability; opponent-point effect unestimated, no offensiveoverlay.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 7 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Nottingham Field; listed 2026-10-18T00:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 53 F, 58 F, 63 F, 69 F; winds 2 mph, 3 mph, 5 mph; Clear, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Seven-desk findings

Parker Fields

UC Davis Aggies: QB: Treynor Cleeland; RB: Jordan Fisher; WR: Samuel Gbatu Jr.; Laviel Pickett; Zach Jones; TE: Edward Khutsishvili. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3. Southern Utah Thunderbirds: QB: Will Burns; RB: Floyd Chalk; WR: David Spjut; Mark Bails; Devin Downing; TE: Joshua Acord. No current qualifying absence established by retained primary role/usage evidence. Unknown status remains conditional, not healthy; routine reserve usage does not trigger -3.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 6 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Eccles Coliseum; listed 2026-10-18T00:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 50 F, 52 F, 55 F, 60 F, 64 F, 66 F; winds 3 mph, 5 mph, 6 mph; Mostly Cloudy, Partly Cloudy, Sunny. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

Louisiana Tech Bulldogs: QB reference pool Blake Baker, Trey Kukuk; RB reference pool Andrew Burnette, Dylone Brooks, Jaden Miller; WR reference pool Jalen Mickens, Talyn Shettron, Marcus Calwise Jr.; TE reference pool Eli Finley, Brayden Bockler, Joshua Brantley.

Baker award after latestgame supports currentQB overseasoncloseKukuk, who remainsprobable, no absenceoverlay. Dylone Brooks: Out (role qualification conditional) UL Monroe Warhawks: QB reference pool Aidan Armenta, Austin Carlisle, Landon Graves; RB reference pool Bryson Roland, Derrick Jameson, CJ Phillip; WR reference pool Marcellus Jackson, Parker Fulghum, LT Robinson; TE reference pool Bryce Anderson, Cade Callahan, Jase Hoath. Reviewed current team-split QB attempts, RB carries, main WR catches and receiving TE use with available official weekly material. No qualifying unavailability established in the retrieved sources. Current references remain conditional, reserve absence is not promoted to an automatic deduction.

Uncle Sibursam

away: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current; home: 12 prior regular-season games, 5 current. Primary training games 3052. Documented NCAA mismatch v1: 50/50 prior/current matchup, bounded ±10 0.20 strength correction, home +1.5 if nonneutral, scores clipped 3–70

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Malone Stadium; listed 2026-10-18T00:00Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 55 F, 56 F, 58 F, 62 F, 65 F, 69 F; winds 10 mph, 5 mph; Clear. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Parker Fields

BOS: Latest official actual skater/strength workload compared with current roster and dated availability flags. Final game lineup/PP units unavailable at overnight capture; explicit same-reference and absence/return workload branches retained.

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

California Memorial Stadium; listed 2026-10-18T02:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 62 F, 63 F, 65 F, 66 F, 69 F; winds 1 mph, 2 mph; Mostly Clear. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.

Gideon Marsh

Independent scalar Classic, dense weighted-matrix Primary and TU arithmetic audit passed. Preserve all disagreements. ON/OFF share scoring arithmetic. Player and trade effects require separate ledgers.

ConstitutionOwl

Snapdragon Stadium; listed 2026-10-18T02:30Z. NCAA official identity matched. NCAA and vendor kickoff agree. Venue label from sanitized event schedule; current team game notes corroborate where available. Rest references use completed sporting records before the common cutoff. Actual travel itinerary is unverified; no travel coefficient invented.

Polly Ticks

Near-start hourly forecast: 74 F, 75 F, 76 F, 78 F; winds 0 mph, 5 mph; Mostly Clear, Partly Cloudy. City-centroid conditions; no numeric weather adjustment.

Liberty Belle

Sporting-only input routing before freeze. Incidental betting snippets and historical prices disclosed; not a blind trial. No deliberate fresh current prices requested.

Warren Bullion

Keep base/conditional distinction, model disagreement, unestimated effects and every applicable stress branch. High risk forces PASS; no quota. Price gates follow this freeze.
