Even

Context

Neutral floor

No home court: the model takes it out of the line

Even

Who is back

Minutes back from last season: OSU 37%, BYU 35%. Transfers in: OSU 4, BYU 5. Early in a season, turnover makes teams harder to price

Even

OSU offense vs BYU defense

Offense 36th of 366 against a defense 33rd, on the model’s ratings

Sorted by how lopsided each matchup is, from national ranks. Reasons to look, not picks: the market already knows most of this.

Projected starters: college teams publish no depth chart, so these come from minutes played, and a freshman or a new starter can change them. The score is the share of ranked players at the position that player is ahead of. Numbers are this season's once a player has 30 minutes, 2025-26's before that. Bench is the next five by minutes. Tap a player for the full numbers.

From the box scores. A longer bar is a better national rank, on every row; the better team's bar is solid. A green rank is near the top of Division I, a red one near the bottom. Pace and 3-point rate are styles, so they have no better side.
