Why Clay Travis picked them: Statement spot after a soft prior week. He likes Florida State to win outright and will lay about three, so FSU is the SU (favorite laying).

The displayed number is a dated event-level Kalshi snapshot, not live odds and not necessarily the market when the original prediction was spoken or first captured.

Danny Kanell also picked Florida State. Chip Patterson, David Pollack, and Josh Pate picked SMU. The full split is on the game page.

Result
