These are exchange trades, not sportsbook bets. On an exchange every trade has a buyer and a seller, so this shows which side buyers paid for.
Kalshi, Polymarket and Novig publish every trade with the side the buyer took. ProphetX carries its trade fills the same way; a line with no captured fill shows dollars matched only. Trades is each side's share of trades since the market opened and Money is its share of the dollars buyers paid. Markets with fewer than 10 trades or under $500 traded are left out; markets under 30 trades or $5,000 are labelled Light trading, because a few buyers can move the percentages a long way.

Magoon Gwath (DEP)13.0 PPG (2 GP)
Jalen Carruth (AAMU)16.0 PPG (2 GP)The total on this game opened at 170.5 and now sits at 138.5. That is a 32-point slide across four moves. The market's first guess and its current guess are nowhere near each other. Meanwhile the spread drifted the other way, from DePaul -21.5 to -22.5. So when the Alabama A&M Bulldogs visit the DePaul Blue Demons, the number itself is the story, and shopping for the best price matters more than usual.
DePaul, by a lot. Both teams are 2-0, but that is two games into the season, far too early to call it form. This non-conference game tips Monday, November 9, at 9:00 PM ET at Wintrust Arena on truTV. DePaul has 3 days of rest, zero travel, and is playing game 3 of a home stand. Alabama A&M has 2 days of rest and traveled 495 miles, with no time-zone change.
Our rating, an Elo model built on stored results, gives DePaul a 64% chance to win and Alabama A&M 36%. That is context only, and it reads closer than a 22.5-point spread suggests. On Kalshi, an exchange where people trade with each other instead of a sportsbook, 95% of the money traded on the moneyline is on DePaul (125 trades, $3.8k traded). Light trading, so that share can swing.
DePaul's leader line belongs to Magoon Gwath at 13.0 over two games, or 6.5 per game. Alabama A&M's is Jalen Carruth at 16.0 over two games, 8 per game. Both are small samples, so treat them as names to know, not trends. Minutes tell you more. DePaul leaned hard on Noah Meeusen (36 last game), Ade Popoola (34) and Kruz McClure (29). Alabama A&M spread it out: Sami Pissis played 25, with Devin Brown and Carruth at 21 each. Over their last 10 stored games, Alabama A&M averaged 69 possessions per game and 116.4 points per 100 possessions. DePaul played slower, at 66.7 possessions and 102.6 points per 100.
No moneyline (a bet on who simply wins) is posted, so the spread and total carry the Alabama A&M vs DePaul odds. The spread is a handicap. DePaul -22.5 wins only if DePaul wins by 23 or more; a 22-point win loses. Alabama A&M +22.5 wins if Alabama A&M wins outright or loses by 22 or fewer. The half point means no push (a tie that refunds your bet). The total is 138.5 combined points.
Books bake in a fee called the vig. Strip it out and you get the no-vig number, the market's implied probability without the fee. Here it is 50% on both spread sides and both totals. Expected value is what a bet averages per $100 risked if you made it many times. Alabama A&M +22.5 at -106 averages minus $2.83. Each total averages minus $3.70. So this is a matchup lean, not a value play.
The market's 50% no-vig cover read matches the 50% break-even; it does not beat it. We like DePaul's rest edge and home stand against a team coming off a 495-mile trip, and we refuse to pay extra vig to back it. If DePaul vs Alabama A&M moves to -23.5 or a worse price where you bet, the case thins fast.
We see DePaul controlling a slower game and pulling away late: DePaul 80, Alabama A&M 56. That is a 24-point margin, enough to cover -22.5, and it adds up to 136 points, under the 138.5 total, though at -108 on both sides we are passing on the total. That is our read on this number; the Desk posts a documented free play on days like this, and it lands right below.
DePaul -22.5 at even money on Novig is the only ticket on this board that costs nothing against the market's own read, and that is where we lean.

Expected value first: the best price across the regulated US books we track versus the true fair price with the vig removed, then the matchup data (form, standings, injuries, key players). Line shopping for the best number is the edge most bettors leave on the table.
