This event group covers a men's college basketball game between TCU Horned Frogs and UCF Knights scheduled for February 17, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET. Markets span moneyline, spread betting at multiple thresholds, and over/under totals across Polymarket and Kalshi platforms.
Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)
Both platforms use identical event parameters (game date, time, teams), identical postponement handling (markets remain open), identical cancellation handling (50-50 resolution), and identical scoring basis (final score including overtime). No threshold conflicts or source divergences exist.
Primary resolution logic:
Official NCAA final game score (TCU vs UCF, February 17, 2026)
Core resolution logic:
Moneyline resolves to the team with the higher final score
Spread markets resolve based on point differential: UCF -2.5 requires UCF win by 3+; UCF -1.5 requires UCF win by 2+; TCU -1.5 requires TCU win by 2+
Over/Under 155.5 resolves Over if combined score is 156+; Under if 155 or less
Over/Under 154.5 resolves Over if combined score is 155+; Under if 154 or less
Kalshi spread markets resolve Yes if the specified team wins by the stated margin (e.g., UCF +1.5 = Yes if UCF wins by 2+ points)
All scoring determinations include overtime periods in the final tally
Edge cases & Clarifications:
Game Postponement: If the game is postponed, all markets remain open and unresolved until the game is completed on a makeup date. No early resolution occurs.
Game Cancellation Without Makeup: If the game is canceled entirely with no makeup game scheduled, all markets resolve 50-50 (split pool equally between Yes and No outcomes).
Overtime Scoring: All final scores include any overtime periods played. There is no separate overtime handling; the combined final score after all periods determines all resolutions.
Spread Push (Exact Margin): If the final margin exactly matches a spread threshold (e.g., UCF wins by exactly 2 points on a -1.5 spread), the market resolves to the team that did NOT cover (TCU in this example, as UCF needed 2+ points).
Timing:
Resolution occurs immediately after the official final score is confirmed by NCAA, including any overtime completion. Polymarket references NCAA.com; Kalshi references the same official final score. No platform-specific delay or source preference exists.
