. Circa is a sharp Las Vegas book. Its numbers are a reference for where the number sits, not a price you can take here.
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 (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.
Polymarket (international) is not open to US bettors.
Polymarket US lists moneyline for this game. No trade split yet for these markets (none captured, or too few to show), so they show prices only. Polymarket US is a separate venue from Polymarket (international) and is never added into its numbers.

Syracuse Orange16th in the Atlantic Coast ConferenceNC State Wolfpack13th in the Atlantic Coast Conference
CJ Bailey (NCSU)171/268, 2,078 YDS, 13 TD, 4 INT (9 GP)
Steve Angeli (SYR)116/212, 1,450 YDS, 8 TD, 6 INT (6 GP)The betting market makes the Syracuse Orange a road favorite at -132. Our rating, an Elo model built on past results, has the NC State Wolfpack winning 67% of the time. That gap is the story of Syracuse vs NC State, a Week 11 ACC game at Carter-Finley Stadium, Saturday at 12:00 PM ET on ACC Network. Both teams are 4-5. When the board looks this split, the price you take matters more than the team you like.
Syracuse is the favorite. NC State is the underdog. As of publication, Syracuse sits 16th of 17 in the ACC and NC State 13th of 17. The yardage leans Syracuse: it averages 430.22 yards per game and allows 348.22 per game over nine games, while NC State averages 387 per game and allows 376.67 per game over nine. Against the spread (ATS, meaning results once the point handicap is applied), Syracuse is 5-4 over nine graded games but 1-2 ATS as a favorite.
Both teams went 5-4 against the posted total in nine games. Each side has six days of rest. Syracuse traveled 520 miles, and NC State plays game 3 of a home stand. The forecast is 52 F, a 9 mph northwest wind, 0% chance of rain. One more note: Nov 12 headlines report Philip Rivers is set to return to NC State as coach. That is news, not a stat.
NC State quarterback CJ Bailey has played all nine games, averaging 230.9 passing yards, 1.4 touchdowns and 0.4 interceptions per game. Syracuse quarterback Steve Angeli has played six of nine games, averaging 241.7 passing yards, 1.3 touchdowns and 1 interception per game. Over each player's last five games they are nearly identical: Bailey 237 passing yards per game, Angeli 237.4. Per game, Bailey has thrown fewer interceptions. Past games are context, not a forecast.
The moneyline is a straight bet on who wins. Syracuse's best price is -132 at ProphetX: risk $100 to profit $74.24 after the fee. The point spread is a handicap. A half point means no tie, called a push. The public split leans NC State: 64% of DraftKings spread tickets and 60% of the money. On Kalshi, 77% of the money traded on the moneyline is on NC State Wolfpack, light trading that can swing.
Every price has a break-even, the win rate you need just to tie. The vig is the book's built-in fee. Remove it and the market's own cover read on NC State +2.5 is 48.8%, while +108 only needs 48.1%. The Under +102 shows plus $1.00.
Shop first.
