# Gruver at Panhandle, 2026
The model likes Panhandle in this one, but just barely, projecting a 2-point home victory with 55% confidence. That's basically a coin flip with a slight lean toward the Panthers, which means this non-district matchup could genuinely go either way. Gruver's traveling to the Panhandle looking to prove they belong in this conversation, while the home team will be favored to protect their turf. So the question for fans: trust the razor-thin edge the numbers give Panhandle, or fade the model and ride with the Greyhounds?
