What Is the NCAAB Public Betting Percentages Chart?

This NCAAB public betting percentages chart shows the percentage of tickets (how many bets) on each side of every game. It’s a quick way to see where the crowd is leaning across the slate and how that sentiment may influence the market.

If a large share of tickets piles onto one side but the line moves the other way, it often signals professional action is opposing the crowd.

How to Use the NCAAB Public Betting Chart (Example)

Suppose Duke opened –3.5 vs North Carolina, but now the market sits at Duke +1.5 and North Carolina –1.5. Our college basketball public betting chart shows roughly 40% of tickets on Duke and 60% on North Carolina. That flip toward UNC—despite more tickets already favoring the Tar Heels—suggests sharper money likely pushed the price their way. A contrarian might consider Duke +1.5 if the move has over-adjusted.

Color Key: In all charts, the home team is shown in blue and the away team is shown in red. This makes it easy to compare ticket percentages at a glance.

Using CBB Public Betting Percentages with Line Movement

Ticket percentages are best used as context. Track where the crowd is, then watch how the number reacts. If the line follows heavy ticket percentages without resistance, value may be thin. If the line moves against the crowd, it’s a sign to investigate the other side or pass the game. Apply the same process consistently rather than chasing one-off anomalies.
