How the prediction works

The pick favors the school whose home-venue-city Scale of Sultry forecast is higher near kickoff. These forecasts are a proxy for a possible conditioning edge, not historical climate averages or measurements of training exposure. Picks use unrounded scores; an exact tie goes to the home team.
