Player Prop #2: Fletcher Loyer Over 4.5 Assists / -112 / 68% / Primary ball-handler with elevated playmaking in recent form, Texas weak perimeter D
Player Prop #3: T. Kaufman-Renn Over 7.5 Rebounds / -108 / 70% / Dominant interior presence exploiting Texas frontcourt vulnerabilities per roster matchup

⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment leans Texas on spread but sharp money follows heavier, yet divergent splits and sim metrics favor Purdue covering at home. Defensive efficiencies and tempo project a controlled, lower-scoring affair under the total despite slight money on over. Contrarian value exists fading heavy ML public without edge elsewhere.

🔮 Recommended Play
Fade the public on Texas +6.5 — sim and EV confirm Purdue’s superior probability.
