Thought I would post games which have a heavier % on one side and the line is moving in the opposite direction. These %’s may vary depending on where you look for them. I use one site and have always used the same site and it generally is fairly consistent with what others will post. Won’t get into the debate about %’s vs $’s because we all agree it is actual dollars that dictate line movement.
Navy vs Rice
10/5/09 Navy -13.5
10/7/09 Navy -11.5
Navy 64%
Wisconsin vs Ohio State
10/5/09 Wisconsin +14
10/7/09 Wisconsin +16.5
Wisconsin 64.9%
Bowling Green vs Kent St
10/5/09 Bowling Green -6
10/7/09 Bowling Green-3.5
Bowling Green 67.7%
Alabama vs Ole Miss
10/5/09 Alabama -6.5
10/7/09 Alabama -5
Alabama 69.5%
Theoretically in each of these games the lines should increase accordingly with the percentages on them. Since they are doing the opposite it indicates larger sums of money are on the lessor percentage teams. Some will call it sharp money some might call it something else but worth noting I guess.
I realize not everyone is interested in this but for those that are enjoy.
