Final SMU 27, Florida State 24 · Graded Sep 8, 2026
Why David Pollack picked them: Pollack still picks SMU as the better, better-coached team going in the right direction. He scores it 27–24 and would not be shocked if Florida State won, because the home crowd and a week of getting kicked around keep the circumstances on the Seminoles' side.
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.
