# Anson at Albany, 2026 Albany rolls into this non-district matchup as a heavy favorite, and our model likes them to win by double digits with a 78% home-field edge. The question for Lions fans: do you trust the algorithm, or is there enough uncertainty in early-season football to fade the projection? Anson will need to execute at a high level to pull off the upset on the road, but non-district games have a way of humbling favorites. Either way, this one's worth watching to see if the model nails it or if the Coyotes have other plans.
