# Denton Ryan at Sherman, District Showdown Sherman gets the nod in our model by a razor-thin two points, but don't sleep on the Denton Ryan road trip, because this one screams toss-up. The Coyotes' home-field advantage pushes our algorithm to a 55% confidence level, yet that's basically a coin flip with a slight lean. Will you trust the model's modest Sherman lean, or are you fading the computer and backing the visitors? Either way, expect a tight district battle that could go either direction.
