It resolves to No if the team finishes with fewer than seven wins in that specific season. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking the count includes postseason games rather than just the regular season.
- UCLA — the market puts it at 15%, with $2k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if UCLA wins the 2026 College Football Big Ten Championship Game.
