This set of markets focuses on predicting the outcome of the fourth quarter in an upcoming college football game between LSU and Auburn. Each market corresponds to different point spreads that either team must achieve in that specific quarter to settle the bet.
The markets resolve based on the point differential by which either LSU or Auburn wins during the fourth quarter of the game, excluding overtime. Each market specifies a different threshold for the winning margin: LSU must win by more than 10.5, 7.5, 6.5, 3.5, 2.5, or 1.5 points, while Auburn must win by more than 2.5, 3.5, 6.5, 7.5, or 10.5 points for the respective markets to resolve to Yes. Only points scored in the fourth quarter count toward these thresholds. If the game is postponed but starts within 48 hours of the original time, the markets remain open and resolve based on the final result. If the game does not start within 48 hours, the markets resolve to a fair price.
Typically, prediction market odds reflect a different set of information and incentives than those found at sportsbooks. Sportsbooks often set lines to balance action and incorporate a profit margin, while this market is driven purely by traders expressing their beliefs about the most likely outcome. While there can be correlation, differences often emerge due to varying levels of information, analytical approaches, and the influence of public sentiment. It’s common to see this market move independently of sportsbook lines, especially as new information becomes available closer to the game.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous double auction. Traders buy and sell contracts representing their belief about the fourth-quarter spread. The price of a contract indicates the probability that the spread will fall within a certain range. As more traders participate, the price adjusts to reflect the collective expectation. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. The price movements are driven by supply and demand, meaning that if more people believe LSU will cover, the price of contracts representing that outcome will increase, and vice versa.
This market resolves around Oct 24, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the final fourth-quarter spread of the LSU versus Auburn football game is verifiable from credible public reporting. The resolution will be based on the official game statistics as reported by a trusted sports data source. The market will determine which contracts pay out based on whether the actual spread falls within the ranges defined by the contract prices at the time of resolution. Traders holding winning contracts will receive a payout of $1 per contract.
Several factors could significantly influence this market before the game concludes. Any news regarding key player injuries for either LSU or Auburn would likely cause a shift in the odds. Changes in weather forecasts, particularly if they suggest conditions favoring one team's style of play, could also impact trading activity. Additionally, any significant shifts in public perception, perhaps driven by expert analysis or late-breaking reports, could move the market. Finally, in-game events during the first three quarters will heavily influence the fourth-quarter spread, leading to substantial price adjustments.
