# Cross Plains at Hico, Non-District Showdown
The algorithm likes Hico in this one, but just barely. Our model gives the home team a razor-thin 2-point edge with 55% win probability, essentially calling it a toss-up that could flip either way. Cross Plains will test whether Hico can protect that home-field advantage, or if the visitors can pull off the upset in what shapes up as a genuine coin-flip contest. The question for fans: trust the model's slight lean toward Hico, or fade it and ride with Cross Plains?
