AI prediction: Marfa by 2 · Toss-up
Marfa 55%45% Imperial Buena Vista
# Imperial Buena Vista at Marfa, 2026 The algorithm likes Marfa in this one, calling it a coin flip with the Shorthorns favored by just two points at home. That's close enough to make you wonder if the model is hedging its bets or onto something real, so don't be shocked if this matchup comes down to the final possession. Imperial Buena Vista will make Marfa work for it in non-district play, but our projection gives the home team a slight edge at 55 percent. The question is whether you trust the math or trust your gut, because this feels like one where either team could walk away with the W.
