# Rice Hosts Sadler S&S in Week 1 Tussle Rice takes the field at home against Sadler S&S Consolidated in a non-district matchup that our model pegs as a coin flip, favoring the hosts by just two points with a 55% win probability. This is classic trap-game territory, the kind of early-season clash where conventional wisdom gets tested and model predictions look silly in the rearview mirror. So here's the question for Rice faithful: do you trust the algorithm's razor-thin edge, or do you fade it and back Sadler S&S to pull off the road upset? Either way, this one figures to be tight enough to keep you sweating through the fourth quarter.
