Details

We see the market prices Oregon State very heavily (home ML 1.27 implied ≈78.7%) while North Dakota State is available at 3.55 (implied ≈28.2%). After reviewing the available previews and matchup material, we judge the true upset probability for North Dakota State to be notably higher than the market-implied 28% because early-season form and matchup metrics in the previews indicate a closer contest than the short home price implies. Using a conservative estimated true probability of 35% for the away win, the required fair decimal price is 2.857 (1 / 0.35). The current away price of 3.55 exceeds that threshold, producing positive expected value: EV = 0.35 * 3.55 - 1 = +0.2425 (≈+24.3% ROI). The market overstates Oregon State's certainty and presents a clear value opportunity on the Bison at available prices. We used the quoted current away ML 3.55 for the EV calculation.
