Why
CFBD enrichment is off. No API key and no ratings cache, so these numbers are ESPN FPI only.
- PITT rating 12.3, BUCK rating -12.
- Fuel: ESPN FPI only. CFBD enrichment is not in this number.
- Home field adds 2.5 to PITT.
- Predicted margin is PITT by 26.8.
- Edge is 25.7 points toward BUCK.
- Model number is on the board, but one rating is imputed — no ATS ticket. (Rating gap 24.3; home field +2.5; FCS placeholder -12).
- Moneyline ticket is PITT, 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.
Model number is on the board, but one rating is imputed — no ATS ticket. (Rating gap 24.3; home field +2.5; FCS placeholder -12).
Writes this moneyline into the ledger. No point line, and no fake close.
