A college basketball game between Syracuse Orange and Wake Forest Demon Deacons scheduled for February 28, 2026 at 5:45 PM ET. Markets cover moneyline (winner), point spreads at -3.5 and -4.5, and total points over/under 152.5.
Kalshi moneyline market contains a logical contradiction: both Syracuse win and Wake Forest win resolve to Yes, making the market unresolvable and eliminating the binary choice. This is a data integrity failure that prevents proper settlement.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade the Kalshi market in its current form. Contact Kalshi support to clarify the intended resolution logic (likely a Yes/No on game completion, not outcome). Polymarket's moneyline, spread, and total markets are logically consistent and can be settled using official NCAA final scores including overtime.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket:
Four distinct markets with clear binary logic: (1) Moneyline resolves to winning team name; (2) Spread -4.5 resolves to Wake Forest if they win by 5+, else Syracuse; (3) O/U 152.5 resolves Over if combined score is 153+, else Under; (4) Spread -3.5 resolves to Wake Forest if they win by 4+, else Syracuse. All use final score including overtime. Postponement keeps market open; cancellation resolves 50-50.
Kalshi:
Single market with logical contradiction: 'If Syracuse wins...resolves to Yes. If Wake Forest wins...resolves to Yes.' Both possible outcomes map to identical resolution value, eliminating the binary choice and making settlement impossible.
