⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public sentiment heavily favors Columbia, aligning with money distribution and sharp indicators, making a follow on the favorite optimal rather than a fade. North Florida’s poor recent form (2-10, five straight losses) and defensive inefficiencies (allowing 40% opponent eFG%) support Columbia’s edge without contrarian value. Overall game scoring outlook leans slightly over the total, driven by Columbia’s offensive rebounding (35% rate) but tempered by North Florida’s slower pace.
