This event group covers a college basketball game between Montana State Bobcats and Idaho State Bengals scheduled for February 21, 2026 at 6:00 PM ET. Markets include moneyline (winner), spread (-2.5), and over/under totals (143.5 and 144.5 points).
Kalshi market contains a logical contradiction: it states both possible outcomes (Montana St. win and Idaho St. win) resolve to Yes, making the market fundamentally unresolvable as a binary Yes/No contract. Polymarket markets are logically sound and consistent.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi market in its current form. The resolution logic is self-contradictory and will create settlement disputes. Polymarket offers clear, resolvable markets with explicit edge-case handling (postponement and cancellation). Request Kalshi clarification or wait for corrected terms.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Moneyline resolves to winner name; spread resolves MSU wins if margin >= 3 points, else ISU wins; totals resolve based on combined score crossing threshold (144+ = Over 143.5, 145+ = Over 144.5). All markets remain open if postponed, resolve 50-50 if canceled with no makeup. Source: NCAA.org. Key quote: 'If the Montana State Bobcats win, the market will resolve to Montana State Bobcats. If the Idaho State Bengals win, the market will resolve to Idaho State Bengals.'
Kalshi: Market states: 'If Montana St. wins...then the market resolves to Yes. If Idaho St. wins...then the market resolves to Yes.' This creates a logical impossibility where both outcomes map to the same resolution. No postponement or cancellation provisions specified. Key quote: 'If Montana St. wins the Montana St. at Idaho St. men's college basketball game originally scheduled for Feb 21, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes. If Idaho St. wins the Montana St. at Idaho St. men's college basketball game originally scheduled for Feb 21, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.'
