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.

Tom's Analysis:
Purdue won't have many chances to send the home fans happy this year, so it must take advantage when it can. It's Barry Odom's debut and the home opener against a Ball State squad that is so bad it's a three-score underdog to Purdue.
