Exchange buyers: which side buyers took (Kalshi, Polymarket (international), Novig, ProphetX)

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.

How to read these numbers

Kalshi, Polymarket (international) 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 the trades we read since we began reading the market 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.

📘 New to betting? Two-minute translation. A moneyline bet is picking who wins, nothing else. In this game, +228 means a $100 bet profits $228 if it wins. The spread is a head start: -7.5 must win by 8+, while +7.5 cashes by losing by 7 or fewer (or winning). The total is combined points by both teams, over or under the books' number. +EV means the price pays better than the market-implied fair odds (vig removed); consistently taking better prices raises your expected return over time.

Northern Illinois vs Nevada Prediction: A Winless Team Getting a Touchdown

The Northern Illinois Huskies are 0-9, and the market is asking the Nevada Wolf Pack to win by only about a touchdown. Ninety-four percent of BetMGM spread tickets sit on the Pack, yet the consensus number has not moved off Northern Illinois +6.5 since the open. That public split is a crowd read, not a recommendation. Nevada vs Northern Illinois kicks off Saturday, November 14 at 3:30 PM ET at Huskie Stadium in Week 11, streaming on MW+. The forecast is 44 degrees with a 10 mph wind from the north-northwest and no rain.

The Matchup: Who Is Favored to Win Nevada vs Northern Illinois?

Nevada is favored. As of publication, Nevada is 3-6 and Northern Illinois is 0-9, 10th of 10 in the Mountain West, in a conference game. Against the spread (ATS, meaning record against the betting line, not the scoreboard), Nevada is 5-4 over nine graded games and Northern Illinois is 3-6 over nine, including 0-3 ATS at home. In per-game averages over nine games, Northern Illinois allows 420 yards and 203.89 rushing yards, while Nevada runs for 147.44.

Nevada's flaw is the ball: 1.89 turnovers per game, while its defense forces just 0.33. Predicted points added per play (PPA, how much each snap shifts expected scoring) shows Northern Illinois's defense allowing 0.24 per play over nine games, Nevada's 0.1. Both teams crossed two time zones east. Nevada has seven days of rest, Northern Illinois six after a trip from San Jose. Our rating, an Elo model built on past results, makes Nevada 67% to win, a touch below the market. Context only.

Players to Watch

Taron Dickens runs the Northern Illinois offense, averaging 208.4 passing yards, 1 touchdown and 0.8 interceptions per game over nine games. Over his last five he is at 207.8 passing yards and 25 rushing yards per game. For Nevada, Carter Jones averages 163.5 passing yards, 0.8 touchdowns and 0.5 interceptions per game over four games. AJ Bianco was the Pack's quarterback of record last game, so watch who takes the first snap.

What Are the Nevada vs Northern Illinois Odds and Spread?

The moneyline is a bet on who wins. Nevada is the favorite at -245 at FanDuel: risk $100 to profit $40.82. Northern Illinois is the underdog at +240 at betPARX: $100 profits $240.00. The spread handicaps the margin. Nevada -7 at -102 (DraftKings) needs an 8-point win or more; a 7-point win is a push, stake returned.

Northern Illinois +7 at -106 (betPARX) wins if the Huskies win or lose by 6 or fewer. For an underdog, +7 beats +6.5, because a 7-point loss pushes instead of losing. Exchange money is split: on Kalshi, 98% of spread money is on Northern Illinois (21 trades, $3.5k traded, light enough to swing), while on ProphetX, 56% is on Nevada (33 trades, $5.4k traded).

Where the Value Is

Every price carries vig, the book's built-in cut. Strip it out and the market reads Nevada about 71.3% to 28.7%. At -245, Nevada needs to win 71% of the time to break even. Expected value is the average result per bet over many repeats, not what one ticket pays. Everything else grades negative: Northern Illinois moneyline minus $2.44, Nevada -7 minus $1.10, Northern Illinois +7 minus $2.71, Over minus $1.10, Under minus $1.31, all per $100 risked. The edge is small and lives only at FanDuel's number.

The Pick

We like the Nevada Wolf Pack moneyline at -245 at FanDuel. If your book asks more than $245 to win $100, this math no longer applies. Pass rather than chase.

The Prediction

Nevada's run game should find room against a defense allowing 203.89 rushing yards per game, and the turnover habit is the only real path for Northern Illinois. We project Nevada 26, Northern Illinois 17. That adds to 43 points, under the 47.5 total, though we are not betting the total at a negative price. Northern Illinois vs Nevada comes down to one positive number; the Desk posts a documented free play on days like this, and it lands right below.
