The Action Network’s proprietary tracking data has indicated sharp action on one side of the spread for this random, Friday Ivy League contest between Yale and Cornell.

This is an incredibly random college basketball game — but that’s good news for you, the reader.

One-sided smart money landing on a game of perhaps zero magnitude can allow you to extract an advantage over the average bettor.

These types of lines are far more inefficient because fewer bettors are moving the market to equilibrium.

Let me explain.

College Basketball Prediction: Yale vs. Cornell

Sharp bettors are all over Yale to cover tonight at a +1.5 spread.

While only 32% of the public is on the underdog, about 93% of the money is backing the Bulldogs to win or lose by one point.

That discrepancy indicates that a substantial amount of big-money bettors are expecting Yale to cover tonight.

The best price you can get on the market is with BetMGM at Yale +1.5 and a vig of -105.

Keep in mind that you’re unable to wager on this contest if you live in the state of New York. Bettors there are ineligible to wager on colleges located within state boundaries.

Cornell, of course, is located in upstate New York.

And while Friday might be the night to cash in, do keep in mind that wagering on sharp money requires patience through the variance.

Positive expected-value wagering works best when you use the same unit sizing over a long sample size.

PRO Report Pick: Yale +1.5 (-105)
