⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment leans heavily toward UMKC +11.5 (54% bets, 59% money), but sharp resistance implied by money disparity on the dog without line movement in their favor; SDSU’s better recent scoring (73.7 PPG away) and defense warrants fading the public. Game projects low-scoring with SDSU holding opponents under recent averages, favoring Under alignment with public lean. Overall, contrarian logic supported by metrics and simulation convergence.

🔮 Recommended Play
Fade the public on UMKC — South Dakota St -11.5 holds strongest EV.
