⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment slightly favors Buffalo on spread but heavily backs Akron ML, while money tilts to Buffalo spread indicating possible sharp action; however, math and simulation favor Akron cover with positive EV as contextual home advantage overrides. Follow the line on spread rather than full fade. Game projects moderately high-scoring but under leans optimal per defensive paces and money convergence.
