Current Total 8.0, ML Home -118 / Away -102, Spread TEX -118
Movement No significant movement detected
EXTREME HEAT (86F) suggests under, but Bayesian model contradicts with 15.2pp edge on over Wind 13 mph may affect ball flight; model edge outweighs weather signal
Strong positive EV; model shows over hits 65% of the time vs market implied 52%
FULL ANALYSIS
Bayesian fusion shows a massive 15.2pp edge on the over 8.0, with a 65.2% win probability despite extreme heat and wind conditions. The model's Poisson/ELO projections also imply a total near 18, though that seems inflated. Sharp money on the home spread (+14% edge) suggests Texas will score enough. The over is the only pick with clear positive EV; moneyline and spread lack conviction. Proceed with caution given historical total struggles.
