Sharp Action
While sharp action hasn't been overwhelming at this point, Action Labs' Bet Signals are reporting a smart money indicator on the Titans early Monday morning, citing one instance in which oddsmakers were forced to react to respected bettors.
Big Money
What's even more interesting is the vast bets-vs.-dollars discrepancy we're seeing thus far on the Detroit vs. Northern Kentucky spread.
Seventy-nine percent of bets are laying the short number with the Norse, yet the Titans have landed 94% of the loot.
This leads us to the conclusion that the largest-sized wagers have come in on that side of tonight's game.

Our College Basketball PRO Projections make this spread Titans -1.5, which translates to a B+ graded 4.4% betting edge.
