Final Score“Real” Score (before garbage time)
HOUSTON4134
UTEP5851

This game hit garbage time at Q4 4:05 — 17+ point lead, 5:00 or less remaining. The “real” score is frozen at the last genuinely competitive moment; it never changes any ranking or projection elsewhere on the site (see the Garbage Time Reality Check page for the full leaderboard).

HOUSTON17.8%13.9%8 / 54
UTEP41.7%25.2%5 / 52

Weighted splits count each garbage-time snap as 35% of a competitive one toward these rates, rather than excluding or fully counting it — see SITUATIONAL LINE above for this game's unweighted numbers.
