AI prediction: Sanderson by 2 · Toss-up
Sanderson 55%45% Marfa
# Marfa at Sanderson, 2026 The algorithm likes Sanderson by 2 in this non-district matchup, giving the Eagles a slim 55% home-field edge, but that's basically a coin flip with a slight lean. Marfa's making the trek to Sanderson looking to prove they belong in this conversation, and the model's razor-thin margin suggests the Shorthorns have every reason to believe they can steal one on the road. So here's the question for the faithful: do you trust the AI's cautious optimism about Sanderson's home advantage, or do you fade it and ride with Marfa's upset potential?
