South Alabama at Tulane is one of the slate's lopsided public plays. 76.0% of the bet count on the spread market is sitting on Tulane -9.5 — which on a college board usually means a mismatch rather than a market disagreement — lopsided ticket counts are ordinary here, so the number itself says less than where the dollars land against it.
The money side tells a slightly different story: 59.0% of dollars on Tulane -9.5 versus 76.0% of tickets. That's a small gap by itself, but in the context of a 76.0% public bet count, even a few points of money lag suggests the average bet on South Alabama +9.5 is materially larger. Books price these games knowing the public is coming — the line builds in the lean — which is why heavy public favorites historically underperform their implied win rate against the spread.

Not as a blanket rule, and we don't present it as one. Heavy public sides are priced knowing the public is coming, so the lean is partly in the number already. What we track is where the ticket count and the dollars disagree, which is a narrower and more specific thing than fading whoever is popular.
We aggregate publicly reported sportsbook handle on a sub-hourly cadence and store every snapshot, so a game's splits can be read as a series rather than a single reading. This page shows the most recent snapshot before kickoff.
The spread is the market college bettors actually shop. A large share of the schedule is priced at moneylines so lopsided that the split says nothing useful, so we lead with the spread and fall back only when a game carries no spread at all.
College boards run far more lopsided than the pros — a 90% ticket count is ordinary here, not remarkable, because so many games pair a ranked team with an overmatched opponent. What matters is whether the dollars agree with the tickets. When they don't, the ticket count is the less informative number. See our methodology →
