Central Arkansas vs. UAB PRO Report
Sharp Action
The earliest books to market had lines as low as -14.5 for this game. Sharps were quick to make work of that number, triggering a Sports Insights Bet Signal in the form of a steam move that immediately got the market moving.
Steam refers to a sudden, drastic market move that comes as a result of a heavy amount of money hitting the same side of a bet at once, and is a strong indication of sharp action.
The rest of the market began opening up in the -18 range, but even that wasn't high enough in the eyes of sharps, as another steam move was triggered at -18. As a result, this spread has hit the three-touchdown mark.
Big Money
While the betting population is split on this game (UAB is holding a 51% to 49% ticket advantage at the time of writing), the distribution of actual money has been nowhere near as balanced.
The 51% of bettors on UAB have generated 70% of the loot, meaning bigger bets — another sign of sharp action — are landing on the favorite.
