Why
CFBD enrichment is off. No API key and no ratings cache, so these numbers are ESPN FPI only.
- TA&M rating 18.2, TEX rating 28.1.
- Fuel: ESPN FPI only. CFBD enrichment is not in this number.
- Home field adds 2.5 to TA&M.
- Predicted margin is TEX by 7.4.
- Edge is 4.9 points toward TEX.
- Edge 4.9 pts vs the posted number. (Rating gap -9.9; home field +2.5).
- Moneyline ticket is TEX, because the predicted margin clears 2 points.
- No totals model — we do not guess over/unders.

Lock a ticket
Same rules as the board. ATS only when the edge clears 1.5 and the rating is not a placeholder. Moneyline only when the model has a winner by 2 or more. The lock stores the line now. CLV stays empty until there is a closing number.
Writes this spread into the ledger. Closing-line value stays blank.
Writes this moneyline into the ledger. No point line, and no fake close.
