Minnesota defeated New Mexico 20–17 in a nail-biter. Minnesota covered by 1.5; Game went Under by 7.5. The market closed at Minnesota -1.5 and the Blue Chip model made it Minnesota -8.9 - a gap of 7.4 points toward Minnesota, of which 7.4 points were beyond the model's measured factors. That was an information gap - the market pricing something the model does not carry - rather than a measured edge.
