Van 55%45% Canton
# Canton at Van, District Showdown Van gets the nod in our crystal ball, but just barely, with the Vandigers favored by a field goal in what our model pegs as essentially a coin flip. The home-field advantage pushes Van to a 55% win probability, meaning this one could easily go either way come Friday night. So the real question for you faithful: do you trust the algorithm's razor-thin edge for the Vandigers, or do you fade it and back Canton to pull off the upset? Either way, buckle up, because this district game has all the makings of a thriller.
