How these weekly predictions work

Weekly forecasts use the latest available OSPR ratings and may change during the week. Confidence combines OSPR's historical calibration with the number of comparable predictions; it is not win probability. Limited Data separately flags thin historical samples or weak current-season rating evidence. The official pregame projection is frozen before the game and cannot be rewritten afterward.
