Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Jamir Watkins / Over Points / 18.5 / -115 / 72% / FSU’s leading scorer from prior season averages 20+ in exhibitions; Alcorn’s weak perimeter defense allows high usage, simulation projects 22 points

Player Prop #2: Caleb Williams / Under Rebounds / 8.5 / -110 / 69% / Alcorn big man faces FSU’s stout frontcourt; recent scrimmages show low rebounding output against superior size, defensive metrics favor under

Player Prop #3: Chandler Jackson / Over Assists / 4.5 / -105 / 65% / FSU guard’s playmaking role in fast breaks; Alcorn’s turnover-prone backcourt inflates assist opportunities, usage rate supports exceeding line

⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public heavily favors FSU aligning with the lopsided moneyline, but divergent money distribution toward Alcorn signals sharp resistance to the favorite, making a fade optimal where EV exists on the spread and ML. Simulation and adjusted efficiencies suggest a comfortable FSU win but not the blowout implied by lines, with overall scoring outlook leaning low due to both teams’ preseason defensive focus and lack of offensive cohesion in openers. No major injuries reported, but travel for Alcorn adds fatigue factor without invalidating underdog value.

🔮 Recommended Play
[Fade the public on Alcorn St / Positive EV on underdog sides backed by simulation and sharp money divergence]
