Why

CFBD enrichment is off. No API key and no ratings cache, so these numbers are ESPN FPI only.

WKU rating -14.3, MERC rating -12.
Fuel: ESPN FPI only. CFBD enrichment is not in this number.
Home field adds 2.5 to WKU.
Predicted margin is WKU by 0.2.
Edge is 38.3 points toward MERC.
Model number is on the board, but one rating is imputed — no ATS ticket. (Rating gap -2.3; home field +2.5; FCS placeholder -12).
Moneyline is a pass — the predicted margin is inside 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 -2.3; home field +2.5; FCS placeholder -12).

No moneyline ticket — predicted margin is inside 2 points.
