Returning production
| Eastern Michigan | Akron | |
|---|---|---|
| Overall | 72% | 92% |
| Passing | 97% | 87% |
| Rushing | 49% | 102%* |
| Receiving | 64% | 92% |
* Outside 0–100% on purpose — production is PPA-weighted, so a departing player who cost his team yards pushes the share above 100 and a returning group with negative combined output shows below zero.
The read
- The spread has moved from 7 to 4.5 since it opened, toward the home side.
- A total of 51.5 sits right around the middle of real college football scores (the median FBS game lands on 54). That places the number; it does not predict the result — overs land almost exactly 50% against closing totals.
