of how many people are on one side of a game and just going opposite?

I'm in the process of doing it now.

There are a few sites that show how many people and %'s that are on one side....

Books make money....isn't it common sense to just go the other way on games where 60-80% of the public is on the other side?

The key IMO is to look at these games (high public opinion) relative to line movement. If 80% are on one side, and the line doesn't move (or moves the other way), then you have something.

This holds especially true in the NBA in my findings. Say Dallas opens as a 6 point favorite against Minnesota. 70%+ of consensus at multiple sites are on Dallas. The line moves to Dallas -5.5. That is an automatic play on Minnesota for me.
