# Blanket at Iredell, 2026
The algorithm likes Iredell in this one, but barely, projecting a two-point home victory with a coin-flip 55% win probability. That's the kind of razor-thin margin that'll have fans second-guessing the model all week, wondering if they should trust the numbers or trust their gut. Blanket travels to Iredell looking to prove this is a true toss-up, while the home team will be hungry to validate even the slimmest edge the computers are giving them. Either way, this non-district matchup has all the makings of a tight, competitive battle.
