This event tracks whether specific college football teams appear in the top five rankings of the official Associated Press Poll in Week 8 of the 2026-27 season. The outcome depends solely on the AP's designated Week 8 rankings, ensuring consistency across all participating teams.
The event resolves based on the official Associated Press (AP) Top 25 Poll for Week 8 of the 2026-27 college football season. For each listed team, if the team is ranked among the top five in that specific poll, the corresponding market resolves to 'Yes'; otherwise, it resolves to 'No'. The AP Poll is the sole source for determining rankings, and the week labeling used by the AP is definitive, regardless of discrepancies in other sources. Kalshi explicitly disclaims any affiliation with the NCAA, and all team names, logos, and trademarks remain the property of their respective owners. The resolution hinges exclusively on the AP’s official Week 8 designation, ensuring uniformity and fairness across all markets.
This market resolves around Oct 27, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the official Week 8 AP Poll rankings are published and independently verifiable from credible sports news sources. The final top five teams listed will determine the market’s settlement, aligning with how the market was originally framed when it launched.
Key signals that could shift this market include major upsets, high-profile player injuries, coaching changes, or performance surges by contending teams ahead of the Week 8 poll. Media narratives and analyst reactions also play a role, as they shape trader expectations and can drive rapid price adjustments before the final rankings are released.
