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, +117 means a $100 bet profits $117 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.

UTSA vs North Texas Prediction: The Total Is the Story

North Texas has gone over the total in 8 of its 9 games this season. The total for this one sits at a towering 76.5 points, and the market prices the over and under at 50% each. That is the tension: a scoring streak that almost never misses against a number built to absorb it. The North Texas Mean Green visit the UTSA Roadrunners at the Alamodome on Saturday, November 14 at 9:00 PM ET on ESPNU. It is a conference game, played indoors.

The Matchup

Both teams are 7-2 as of publication on November 10. UTSA sits 3rd of 14 in the American Conference. They have not met yet this season. The last meeting, 392 days ago, went against UTSA. North Texas gets 6 days of rest and travels 274 miles with no time-zone change. UTSA gets 8 days of rest but is coming home 1,143 miles from its last game in Boca Raton, crossing one time zone west.

Over 9 games, North Texas averages 535.44 yards per game and allows 453 per game. UTSA averages 411 per game and allows 450.75. Another lens is predicted points added per play (PPA), which measures how much each snap moves a team toward scoring. Higher is better on offense, lower is better on defense. North Texas sits at 0.35 on offense and 0.10 on defense. UTSA sits at 0.21 and 0.14.

Players to Watch

Tayven Jackson runs the North Texas offense. Over 9 games he has completed 211 of 298 passes for 2,880 yards, 23 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. That works out to 320 yards and 2.6 touchdowns per game, and he has averaged 338.6 passing yards per game over his last 5. Owen McCown leads UTSA. Over 9 games he is 189 of 278 for 2,016 yards, 13 touchdowns and 4 interceptions, which is 224 yards and 1.4 touchdowns per game, with 230.8 per game over his last 5. Both played all 9 games, so the per-game gap is a fair read. Both defenses allow over 235 passing yards per game.

Who Is Favored to Win North Texas vs UTSA?

North Texas is the favorite. Risk $100 to profit $83.33, and it needs to win 54.5% of the time to break even. UTSA is the underdog at +112 at BetRivers, where $100 profits $112.00 with a 47.2% break-even, the lowest on the board. With the vig (the book's built-in fee) removed, the market reads North Texas 53.8% to UTSA 46.2%. For context, our rating has UTSA at 53%. The North Texas vs UTSA spread (a bet on the margin) is North Texas -2.5 at -105 at DraftKings, which wins only by 3 or more.

UTSA +2.5 at -105 at theScore Bet wins outright or on a loss of 2 or fewer. A half point means no push (a tie that refunds your bet). Both sides break even at 51.2%. The spread moved from -2 to -2.5 at three books, and 80% of BetMGM spread tickets are on North Texas, which is just the public split. The total is Over 76.5 at +101 at ProphetX and Under 76.5 at -103 at Courtside. Shopping books for these prices matters.

Where the Value Is

Expected value is your average result per $100 risked if you made the same bet many times at the market's own read. Here every price is negative. North Texas moneyline: minus $1.29. UTSA moneyline: minus $2.15. Each spread side: minus $2.38. Under: minus $1.46. So there is no clean value.

The Pick

Over 76.5 at +101 on ProphetX. This is a matchup lean, not a value play, so keep the stake small. At a worse price the math only gets worse.
