NCAAM Conference Tournament Winner: Big 12

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Resolution occurs when the 2026 Big 12 Men's Basketball Conference Tournament concludes and an official champion is declared by the NCAA and Big 12 Conference
• The winning team must be one of the 16 eligible Big 12 member teams: Kansas State, UCF, Utah, Texas Tech, Kansas, Arizona, Iowa State, BYU, Arizona State, Houston, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Colorado, TCU, or Cincinnati
• If a team is eliminated from tournament eligibility per Big 12 rules before or during the tournament, markets for that team resolve No
• If multiple teams are declared co-champions, Polymarket resolves to the team whose name comes first alphabetically; Kalshi would resolve Yes for all co-champions
• If the tournament is cancelled or no champion is declared by March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, Polymarket resolves to Other; Kalshi binary markets remain unresolved pending official determination

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Tournament Cancellation: If the 2026 Big 12 Conference Tournament is cancelled or postponed beyond March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, Polymarket resolves to Other. Kalshi's binary markets would require explicit guidance from the platform but logically would not resolve Yes for any team.
• Co-Champions: If two or more teams are declared co-champions, Polymarket applies alphabetical ordering (first alphabetically wins). Kalshi would resolve Yes for all co-champion teams.
• Team Elimination: If a Big 12 member is removed from the conference or declared ineligible before the tournament, its corresponding market resolves No (Kalshi) or is excluded from consideration (Polymarket).
• Delayed Declaration: If the NCAA does not officially declare a champion within the March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET deadline, Polymarket resolves to Other; Kalshi markets remain pending official resolution.
