# Sam Houston vs. Scarborough Preview The AI likes Sam Houston by a field goal in this non-district matchup, but barely, with the model giving Scarborough nearly a coin-flip 49% chance to steal it at home. This is as close to a true toss-up as you'll find, meaning the prediction model is essentially throwing up its hands and saying "your guess is as good as mine." So the real question for fans is simple: do you trust the algorithm's razor-thin edge for Sam Houston, or do you fade it entirely and back the home team? Either way, expect a tight one when these two Houston programs square off.
