Odds as of Tuesday afternoon

Tuesday's biggest contest — perhaps across all sports — is a college basketball matchup between the Duke Blue Devils and Ohio State Buckeyes.

Duke is ranked No. 1 in the country after they knocked off former No. 1 ranked Gonzaga last Friday.

And while the Buckeyes are unranked in the Associated Press poll, they're a firm top 25 team according to KenPom, where they sit at No. 24.

This 9:30 p.m. ET game is by far the most-bet-on game across the college basketball slate.

And as my colleague PJ Walsh wrote about earlier today, there's a massive discrepancy between which spread the public is betting on and which spread the sharps are betting on.

The same trend seems to be true for the over/under.

Read further to see what The Action Network's model says sharps and big money wise guys are targeting in regards to the total for Duke vs. Ohio State.

Duke vs. Ohio State Sharp, Big Money Action

The sharps and big money bettors adore the under for this affair.

Enough so that the line opened at 148.5 but has since moved down to 146.5 on account of sharp action.

The public seems to love the over on this one, though. About 58% of bettors are on the over, but only 33% of the money is. That indicates a small minority of bettors are betting a lot of money on the under.

This holds true for the spread, too. The sharps love Ohio State at +3 while the public is absolutely hammering Duke -3. This line could hit Ohio State +3.5 within the hour.

For the total, fade the public, follow the wise guys, and go with the under.

PRO Report Pick: Under 146.5
