Canton 61%39% Mount Vernon

# Mount Vernon at Canton, 2026 Canton gets the nod in our model, but just barely. The Eagles' 61% home-field advantage gives them a razor-thin three-point edge over the Lions in what our algorithm pegs as a toss-up. This is the kind of non-district matchup where conventional wisdom gets tested, so the real question is whether you trust the algorithm or your gut. Either way, expect a tight one that could flip on a single possession.
