# Merkel Visits Colorado City in 2026 Non-District Showdown Our model likes Merkel by a hair in this one, but barely, and that's exactly where you should get suspicious. A one-point spread in a non-district matchup screams "coin flip," and the 49% home win probability tells you Colorado City has every reason to believe they can steal this. The question for fans: do you trust the slight edge toward the visitors, or do you fade the model and back the Wolves at home where anything can happen?
