These markets focus on predicting the point differential in the first quarter of a college football game between Missouri State and SMU. Each market corresponds to a specific threshold of points by which either team must win the quarter to settle the outcome.
All markets resolve based solely on points scored during the first quarter of play in the Missouri St. vs SMU college football game scheduled for September 26, 2026. A market resolves to 'Yes' if the specified team wins the quarter by more than the stated point margin. If the game is postponed but commences within 48 hours of its original start time, all markets remain open and resolve according to the official result. Should the game fail to start within this 48-hour window, all markets resolve to a fair price.

Prediction market odds often reflect the wisdom of the crowd, potentially differing from initial sportsbook lines due to the influence of diverse opinions and information. Sportsbooks set initial lines based on their own models and risk assessment, while this market aggregates insights from a wide range of participants. It's common to see this market adjust rapidly as new information emerges, potentially leading to odds that diverge from, or converge with, those offered by traditional sportsbooks. Analyzing these differences can offer valuable perspectives on the perceived probability of various outcomes.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order book where traders buy and sell contracts representing different point spreads for the first quarter.
