Our model blends Elo ratings (USF Elo 1607, FAU Elo 1270) plus home-field advantage. That projects USF -15.9 (88% to win) — 4.6 points of value on FAU versus the market line of -20.5.
USF up 18 entering the 4th quarter. Across 838 historically comparable game states (within ±2 pts and ±3 min, from 3,056 games):
Florida Atlantic 13, South Florida 48.
Yes — the model's pick (USF) was correct.
