Tonight's three MACtion matchups all opened with totals in the upper-50s. They're also all (predictably) drawing a majority of bettors to the over, though not necessarily in equal shares.
As of Wednesday morning, the three "over percentages" stand at 59%, 63% and 68%. But only one of those backings has been enough to push its total past the 60-mark.
Our PRO Report explains why.

Big Money
Also pointing toward a sharp backing of the over in this game (and giving more reason for oddsmakers to take note), the 59% of bettors on the over have generated 74% of actual money hitting the total.
That means the over is taking on much bigger bets, and while those can technically come from anyone, they're far more likely to come from sharps, so a discrepancy such as this one serves as another pretty strong sign of smart money.
