A college basketball game between Loyola Marymount Lions and San Diego Toreros scheduled for February 21, 2026 at 6:00 PM ET. Multiple prediction markets track the moneyline winner, point spread, and total points scored across Polymarket and Kalshi platforms.
Kalshi market structure is fundamentally unresolvable as written - it resolves Yes for both possible outcomes (either team winning), eliminating any predictive differentiation. This represents either a critical data integrity failure or a scope mismatch where Kalshi is tracking game completion rather than outcome.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi market as described without clarification. Request confirmation from Kalshi that the market terms are accurate. If accurate, the market is not a competitive prediction but rather a binary confirmation of game occurrence. Focus trading activity on Polymarket's well-defined moneyline, spread, and total markets which have clear, mutually exclusive outcomes.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Three distinct markets with mutually exclusive outcomes: (1) Moneyline resolves to Lions or Toreros based on winner; (2) Spread resolves to Lions if they win by 3+ points, otherwise Toreros; (3) Totals resolve Over/Under based on combined score thresholds (151 or 150 depending on market). All include postponement hold and 50-50 cancellation logic.
Kalshi: Single market resolves to Yes if San Diego wins OR if Loyola Marymount wins. No No outcome is defined. This creates a logical impossibility where the market cannot differentiate between outcomes.
