What is a dedicated sports bettor to do?
Well, when it comes to Monday’s college basketball odds board, specifically, there are only 13 lined games to analyze, however, Duke vs. No. 23 Miami and No. 10 Texas vs. No. 8 Kansas should attract oodles of public action.
On the other hand, when it comes to smart money, it’s Monday night’s under-the-radar UMass Lowell vs. Hartford matchup that’s quietly become a popular position for pro bettors.
Let me explain.
College Basketball Pick: UMass Lowell vs. Hartford
UMass Lowell is a massive favorite against Hartford based on the latest college basketball odds, but wiseguys are still taking a position with the Hawks.
After initially hitting the market at +16.5, sharps steamed Hartford and the points, kicking this spread down to a consensus of +15.5 across the market.
Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement that is often the result of bettors with the respect and resources to move odds getting down on the same side of the same game at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.
In addition, the Action Network’s college basketball public betting data is reporting that Hartford has landed 58% of the money wagered on the spread thus far, but on just 21% of the tickets.
This provides another key piece of information regarding why this spread has shortened since opening on Sunday afternoon.
