Northern Illinois vs. Ball State
The under has drawn the brunt of the sharp action on the total.
Sports Insights Bet Signals have been triggered 4 times on the under, so while the overall line movement may not look like much, the reason for it, or one contributing factor, at least is clear.
Another potential factor is weather. Winds of 14-18 mph are expected throughout tonight’s game in Muncie.
Market update
7 p.m. ET: Toledo (1-1) at Eastern Michigan (0-2)
This line opened with Toledo listed as a 7-point road favorite. The public expects Toledo to bounce back and roll over winless Eastern Michigan. However, despite two-thirds of bets laying the points, we've seen this line fall from -7 to -6.5, signaling wiseguy money backing the home dog plus the points.
We've also seen some sharp action hit this over, pushing the total up from 59.5 to 61.
7 p.m. ET: Western Michigan (2-0) at Central Michigan (2-0)
This line opened with Central Michigan listed as a 2-point home favorite. Spread bets are relatively split and the public doesn't know who to take. But we've seen smart money hit Western Michigan, dropping this line down to a pick'em or Western Michigan -1 depending on the book. Depending on who you like here, it might be wiser to take the moneyline.
We've also seen some under money show up, dropping the total slightly from 60.5 to 59.5. The forecast calls for 10-15 MPH winds.
