BYU hosts Arizona in the Big 12 opener for both programs at 3:30 PM ET on FOX, and the market treats it as a mid-single-digit home favorite spot rather than a coin flip. Arizona won the 2025 meeting 33-27 in Tucson, the only blemish on a BYU regular season that finished 11-1 before a 34-7 loss to Texas Tech in the Big 12 Championship Game. The board carries roughly $59.6K in lifetime volume on Kalshi across a two-way moneyline, 31 spread rungs and 78 total and team-total lines. The live board above has current prices; the game resolves on the final score at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo.
BYU opens conference play ranked 15th and 1-0, hosting an Arizona team that handed the Cougars their only regular-season loss of 2025. Both sides beat FCS opponents on September 5 by a combined 98-14, so neither has faced a defense that tells you much. Kalshi is the only venue trading the game, which means there is no cross-platform spread to arbitrate here and the Kalshi price is the market price. The heaviest single line on the board is not the moneyline at all: it is the BYU minus 7.5 spread rung, sitting near a coin flip on roughly $13.2K of lifetime volume.
BYU went 11-1 in the 2025 regular season, with the lone loss a 29-7 defeat at Texas Tech on November 8, then lost the Big 12 Championship Game to the same Red Raiders 34-7 at AT&T Stadium on December 6. The Cougars beat Utah Tech 63-7 on September 5 behind 521 total yards, 308 of them on the ground, zero turnovers given away and four taken. Bear Bachmeier went 16 of 20 for 198 yards and three touchdowns before the game was decided. The BYU board has been priced as a Big 12 contender since the opener.
Arizona finished the 2025 regular season 9-3, closing with a 23-7 win at Arizona State on November 29 and a 41-17 win over Baylor the week before. The Wildcats opened 2026 with a 35-7 win over Northern Arizona on 537 total yards, 331 of them through the air, and Noah Fifita completed 23 of 30 for 279 yards and two scores. The number that should temper the yardage is three: Arizona turned the ball over three times against an FCS opponent that finished with minus 7 rushing yards. Giovanni Richardson caught nine balls for 113 yards, and Chase Kennedy had 2.5 sacks. The Arizona board prices the Wildcats as a live road dog rather than a body bag.
The head-to-head matters here because it is recent and it is the same two coaching staffs. BYU won 33-27 at Arizona on October 12, 2025, a six-point road win that the market has clearly folded into a home number a full touchdown wider.
The moneyline has BYU in the mid-70s in implied probability and Arizona in the high 20s, which is the normal Kalshi two-sided overround rather than a pricing error. That maps almost exactly to the DraftKings moneyline of minus 305 on BYU that ESPN carries for this game, so the exchange and the sportsbook agree on the win probability.
The spread ladder is where the real information sits. BYU minus 7.5 prices as close to a true coin flip as anything on the board, BYU minus 6.5 sits several points higher, and BYU minus 9.5 sits below 50%. That is a market that has settled on 7.5 as the key number, and it is the same number DraftKings shows, up from an opening line of BYU minus 6.5. The move is toward the home team.
The total moved the other way. DraftKings opened this game at 51.5 and now posts 47.5, and the Kalshi ladder agrees: Over 46.5 trades above 50%, Over 49.5 trades in the mid-40s on roughly $12.0K of lifetime volume, and Over 50.5 sits lower still. The team totals corroborate rather than contradict, with BYU's own over 27.5 near a coin flip and Arizona's over 19.5 just above one. Add those and you get an implied final in the neighborhood of 48, which is a defensive read on two offenses that just scored 63 and 35.
One honest limitation: this board carries no snapshot history yet. The intraday coverage block reports zero ticks and the per-line price series returns nothing, so there is no open-to-now move on our own data to report. The line movement described above is the DraftKings open versus current that ESPN publishes, not a Genius capture, and it should be read as sportsbook data rather than exchange data.
The moneyline resolves to the team that wins the game at LaVell Edwards Stadium on September 12, 2026, with kickoff scheduled for 3:30 PM ET on FOX. Spread contracts settle against the final margin and total contracts against the combined final score, both including overtime under Kalshi rules. Settlement follows the official final, so a postponement pushes resolution rather than voiding it.
Both openers are on the site: BYU's 63-7 win over Utah Tech and Arizona's 35-7 win over Northern Arizona. The rest of the Big 12's September 12 card includes Arizona State at Texas A&M and Texas Tech at Oregon State, the second of which features the team that beat BYU twice last season. The full slate of priced games sits on the NCAA football board.
Resolves to the team that wins the Arizona at BYU game played at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, Utah on September 12, 2026, with kickoff scheduled for 3:30 PM ET on FOX. Moneyline contracts pay $1 per share for the winning team and $0 for the loser. Spread contracts settle against the official final margin and total contracts against the combined official final score, both including overtime. Kalshi settles on the official NCAA final result. If the game is postponed, settlement moves to the rescheduled date; if it is canceled or abandoned before an official result exists, contracts void per platform rules.
As of September 9, 2026, Kalshi prices BYU in the mid-70s in implied win probability and Arizona in the high 20s for the September 12 game in Provo. The live board on this page carries the current moneyline, all 31 spread rungs and the full total ladder.
BYU is the home favorite. The market's key spread number is BYU minus 7.5, which trades near a coin flip and matches the DraftKings line ESPN publishes for the game, up from an opening number of BYU minus 6.5.
This game trades on Kalshi only, with roughly $59.6K in lifetime volume across the moneyline, spread and total. Polymarket has not listed the matchup, so there is no cross-platform comparison available for this board.
It resolves on the final score of the September 12, 2026 game at LaVell Edwards Stadium, scheduled for 3:30 PM ET on FOX. Spread and total contracts include overtime, and settlement follows the official NCAA result.
The market implies a combined final near 48. Over 46.5 trades above 50% on Kalshi while Over 49.5 trades in the mid-40s, and DraftKings has moved its posted number from a 51.5 open down to 47.5.
Watch whether BYU minus 7.5 holds as the key number into Saturday and whether the total continues drifting under 47.5. Both teams beat FCS opponents on September 5, so the first real Big 12 possessions will reprice this board quickly.
