Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:
Absolutely believe Iowa State, which is unbeaten at home, can win this game but I'm not turning down only -125 on what is clearly the better overall team. The rotten weather in Ames may limit the crowd as well, but then Iowans are used to dressing up like Randy in "A Christmas Story" just to go buy milk ... if they don't have cows, that is.
