This event group covers a men's college basketball game between Ohio Bobcats and Northern Illinois Huskies scheduled for February 21, 2026 at 3:00 PM ET. Markets include moneyline (winner), point spreads at -6.5 and -5.5, and a total points over/under at 150.5.
Kalshi market contains a logical contradiction: both a Northern Illinois victory and an Ohio victory are stated to resolve to Yes, making the market unresolvable. Polymarket markets are internally consistent but operate on a different platform with independent resolution mechanics.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi market in its current form. The contradiction makes it impossible to determine which outcome actually wins. Use Polymarket moneyline and spread markets as your primary trading venue. Request immediate clarification from Kalshi on whether this is a data error or if there is a third resolution state not documented.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Moneyline resolves to team name of winner. Spreads resolve based on margin: Ohio Bobcats at -6.5 wins if margin is 7+, at -5.5 wins if margin is 6+. Totals resolve Over if combined score is 151+. All markets postpone if game delayed; resolve 50-50 if canceled with no makeup. Key quote: 'The result will be determined based on the final score including any overtime periods.'
Kalshi: Market states both outcomes resolve to Yes: 'If Northern Illinois wins...resolve to Yes' AND 'If Ohio wins...resolve to Yes'. This creates a logical impossibility where both mutually exclusive outcomes map to identical resolution. Key quote: 'If Northern Illinois wins the Ohio at Northern Illinois men's college basketball game originally scheduled for Feb 21, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes. If Ohio wins...then the market resolves to Yes.'
