⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public bets split slightly toward the dog with money even heavier (61%), signaling potential sharp action on Western Kentucky, but sim and home-field metrics favor Liberty without strong invalidation. Fade optimal as EV converges on favorite despite sentiment. Game projects low-scoring (avg 146) due to pace/defensive matchups.
