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.

The Colorado Buffaloes made a surprise move at quarterback by moving to Ryan Staubb. I do like the move, but Staubb is in a tough spot on a short week traveling on the road in a confernece game against Houston. The Cougars have taken steps forward under Coach Willie Fritz, and now are in an unusual spot favored against Colorado. Non typical of what we have seen in the past, that presents value on the number. An issue under Deion Sanders teams has been mismanaging games in the fourth. Look for that to be the difference ATS. Take Houston.
It can't be a good sign that Colorado is likely to start its third-string QB after spending all offseason trying to figure out if the high-priced transfer or high-priced recruit would win the job. Houston's offense hasn't been great, but the defense has been lights out to start.
