💰 Best Bet #1 Miami (OH) RedHawks / Spread / -6.5 at -102 / 62% / Miami holds a clear home edge and recent 3-game win streak with solid defensive stops; Buffalo’s recent low-output road form supports the favorite covering the short number.

Key skill player usage rises in home favorites; recent Miami red-zone efficiency and Buffalo’s lower scoring defense favor a score.
