If you're still reeling from an Alabama ticket that was taken away from you in heartbreaking fashion, you might need to head to the MAC to recoup some of those losses.

The Akron Zips will host the Ball State Cardinals on Tuesday night, with the matchup featuring a major disparity between where The Action Network's PRO report is seeing sharp action and where the public is coming in.

Ball State enters the game with an uninterrupted MAC slate behind it, playing 14 games and three in the conference. Akron has played 12 games and only two in the MAC due to COVID-19 issues that has limited the team's ability to play games.

Since coming back from that break, Akron is 1-1 following a tight loss to Ohio and a win against Buffalo. The Cardinals are 2-1 since the start of the new year, finding victories against Bowling Green and Eastern Michigan, and losing to Kent State.

Here's how the wiseguys are targeting the matchup.
