| Market | COLO | GT |
|---|---|---|
| Moneyline | +195 | -238 |
| Run line | +6.5 | |
| Total 50.5 | Over -118 | Under -102 |
| Market-implied pick | Win chance | Projected score |
|---|---|---|
| Georgia Tech | 68% | Georgia Tech 28, Colorado 22 |
Strip the book's cut out and the market calls this a clear Georgia Tech favorite. The question is not who wins but whether -238 is worth paying for it — see the break-even row below. On the total, the under is the cheaper side of 50.5 at the posted prices. The projected score is the posted total split by the spread — the market's own expected margin, not a model of ours. Our own side on this game, if we take one, goes out in the newsletter before kickoff.
| COLO | GT | |
|---|---|---|
| Win chance (no-vig) | 32.5% | 67.5% |
| Break-even at the price | 33.9% | 70.4% |
Both posted prices together imply more than 100% — that surplus (4.3% here) is what the book keeps. Strip it out and the market makes this COLO 32.5%, GT 67.5%. The break-even row is the win rate you'd need at the posted price just to tread water — the gap between the two rows is the cost of the bet.
