Returning production
| Houston Christian | Rice | |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | — | 39% |
| Passing | — | -317%* |
| Rushing | — | 77% |
| Receiving | — | 54% |
* Outside 0–100% on purpose — production is PPA-weighted, so a departing player who cost his team yards pushes the share above 100 and a returning group with negative combined output shows below zero.
The read
- A total of 47.5 sits on the low side of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result — overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.

Line movement
The number hasn't moved. The spread has held at -22.5 and the total at 47.5 across 200 checks between Aug 31 – Sep 5. Most college lines sit still until news moves them — 83% of the games we track haven't budged — so a still number is the normal state, not missing data.
"From" is the first price we recorded, not necessarily the market open — DraftKings publishes no opening number, so we only claim what we saw.
