⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment and sharp money align on Stetson spread cover, with line movement confirming value against FGCU’s road variance; no RLM as action supports dog. FGCU’s edge in recent scoring is offset by Stetson’s home rest and low pace. Game projects low-scoring (149 avg total) due to Stetson allowing just 79.3 PPG recently but forcing opponent inefficiency.
