March Madness Odds | College Basketball Futures

College Basketball Futures Betting

An NCAA Basketball "futures" bet is a bet on an event that will be determined later in a given season — beyond just the current day or week. Often, college basketball futures center around results like betting on a team to win their conference or the NCAA Tournament. If the selected team wins the event on which the bet was placed, the bettor wins their wager.

Futures odds are associated with bigger payouts because they are much harder to predict. As such, a bettor can usually expect "plus-money" on any futures bet with odds ranging anywhere from +250 to +1100 depending on the team. Even the best teams, or favorites, to win the NCAA Tournament at the beginning of the year will have favorable odds because so much could happen from the beginning of the season to the end. Futures are available throughout the NCAA College Basketball season for conference outcomes and player awards as well as the tournament itself.

2026 NCAA Tournament Odds

The NCAA Tournament field has been whittled down to a "chalky" Sweet 16, though one massive pillar has fallen. The biggest shock of the opening weekend was the exit of defending champion Florida, who saw their repeat hopes dashed by 9-seed Iowa in a second-round thriller. This upset has cleared a path in the South Region for contenders like Houston and Illinois, while a red-hot Michigan has officially overtaken Duke as the overall betting favorite following two dominant 20-point blowout wins.

Despite seeing their perfect season end in February, Arizona remains the team to beat in the West, holding steady as an 8.5-point favorite over Arkansas for Thursday's tip-off. Meanwhile, Purdue has emerged as a popular "sharp" pick after coasting through the first two rounds, and Texas stands alone as the final double-digit seed remaining. With the Blue Devils battling injuries and the Gators officially out, the race to San Antonio is now a high-stakes sprint between the remaining 1-seeds and a surging Big Ten contingent.

College Basketball Conference Championships

American Athletic Conference Odds

Jump To: Charlotte 49ers | Cincinnati Bearcats | East Carolina Pirates | Florida Atlantic Owls | Memphis Tigers | North Texas Mean Green | Rice Owls | South Florida Bulls | Temple Owls | Tulane Green Wave | Tulsa Hurricanes | UAB Blazers | UCF Knights | UTSA Roadrunners | Wichita State Shockers

The American Athletic Conference (AAC) race has concluded with South Florida emerging as the dominant force, having secured both the outright regular-season title and their first-ever AAC Tournament championship. Following a historic run that saw the Bulls win 11 straight games leading into the postseason, they defeated Wichita State in the Birmingham final to punch their ticket to the NCAA Tournament as an 11-seed. Tulsa and Wichita State finished in a tie for second place, while the mid-pack scramble saw Charlotte, North Texas, and Florida Atlantic all finish with identical conference records. Despite the late-season slide that dropped the Owls to a 7-seed, they managed a first-round tournament win over Temple before falling to North Texas, leaving South Florida as the lone representative to carry the conference's banner into the Sweet 16.

Jump To: Boston College Eagles | California Bears | Clemson Tigers | Duke Blue Devils | Florida State Seminoles | Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets | Louisville Cardinals | Miami Hurricanes | North Carolina State Wolfpack | North Carolina Tar Heels | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | Pittsburgh Panthers | Southern Methodist Mustangs | Stanford Cardinal | Syracuse Orange | Virginia Cavaliers | Virginia Tech Hokies | Wake Forest Demon Deacons

The ACC landscape has shifted following a dominant postseason run by Duke, who captured the conference tournament title in Charlotte. Led by the interior presence of Cameron Boozer, the Blue Devils entered the NCAA Tournament as the overall top seed and have successfully advanced to the Sweet 16 alongside fellow conference members Virginia and Miami. While Clemson and North Carolina were consistent fixtures in the top of the standings throughout the winter, both programs suffered early exits during the opening weekend of the Big Dance. Louisville provided one of the season's most notable turnarounds by reaching the conference quarterfinals, but as the field narrows, the ACC's hopes for a national title rest squarely on the shoulders of a Duke squad that has largely steamrolled its competition since that February stumble in Chapel Hill.

NCAA Big 12

Big 12 Conference Odds

Jump To: Arizona Wildcats | Arizona State Sun Devils | Baylor Bears | Colorado Buffaloes | Iowa State Cyclones | Houston Cougars | Kansas Jayhawks | Kansas State Wildcats | Oklahoma Sooners | Oklahoma State Cowboys | TCU Horned Frogs | Texas Longhorns | Texas Tech Raiders | Utah Utes | West Virginia Mountaineers

The Big 12 has solidified its reputation as a gauntlet with three programs successfully reaching the Sweet 16. Arizona proved the preseason hype was well-founded, securing both the regular-season title and the conference tournament trophy in Kansas City. Houston pushed the Wildcats to the brink in a high-intensity championship game, while Iowa State utilized a stifling defense to cruise through the opening rounds of the national tournament. Although the conference saw several other members like Texas Tech and TCU earn tournament bids, the focus now remains on the trio of top seeds representing the league in the regional semifinals.

NCAA Big East

Big East Conference Odds

Jump To: Butler Bulldogs | Connecticut Huskies | Creighton Bluejays | DePaul Blue Demons | Georgetown Hoyas | Marquette Golden Eagles | Providence Friars | Seton Hall Pirates | St. John's Red Storm | Villanova Wildcats | Xavier Musketeers

The Big East hierarchy has shifted following a second consecutive conference tournament title for St. John’s. The Red Storm validated their regular-season success by defeating UConn 72–52 in the championship game at Madison Square Garden, led by a 18-point, 7-block performance from tournament MVP Zuby Ejiofor. Both programs moved on to the Sweet 16, with St. John’s knocking off Kansas and UConn cruising past UCLA to reach the second weekend. While Villanova earned an NCAA bid, their run ended in the opening round against Utah State, and perennial powers Creighton (15–17) and Marquette (12–20) struggled through uncharacteristic losing seasons that left them out of the national tournament entirely. As the regional semifinals begin, the conference's championship hopes remain high with both the Red Storm and the Huskies positioned as major threats to reach the Final Four.

NCAA Big 10 icon 

Big Ten Conference Odds

Jump To: Illinois Fighting Illini | Indiana Hoosiers | Iowa Hawkeyes | Maryland Terrapins | Michigan Wolverines | Michigan State Spartans | Minnesota Golden Gophers | Nebraska Cornhuskers | Northwestern Wildcats | Ohio State Buckeyes | Oregon Ducks | Penn State Nittany Lions | Purdue Boilermakers | Rutgers Scarlet Knights | UCLA Bruins | USC Trojans | Wisconsin Badgers  | Washington Huskies

The Big Ten’s regular-season hierarchy has been settled, and the conference has emerged as the dominant storyline of the national tournament. Michigan (31–3) validated its regular-season dominance by securing the outright conference title behind Player of the Year Yaxel Lendeborg, though they fell to Purdue 80–72 in the Big Ten Tournament championship game. Despite entering the conference tournament as a 7-seed following a late-season slump, the Boilermakers found their form in Chicago, fueled by Braden Smith’s record-breaking assist numbers. The conference successfully sent a record-tying six teams to the Sweet 16, including Michigan State, Illinois, Nebraska, and a surging Iowa squad that authored the tournament's biggest bracket-buster by eliminating top-seeded Florida. While programs like Minnesota and Maryland managed to avoid the opening-day play-in games, they were unable to secure bids to the big dance, leaving the league's championship hopes with a historic six-team contingent.

SEC Championship

Southeastern Conference Odds

Jump To: Alabama Crimson Tide | Arkansas Razorbacks | Auburn Tigers | Florida Gators | Georgia Bulldogs | Kentucky Wildcats | LSU Tigers | Mississippi State Bulldogs | Missouri Tigers | Ole Miss Rebels | South Carolina Gamecocks | Tennessee Volunteers | Texas A&M Aggies | Vanderbilt Commodores

The SEC landscape has been redefined by a historic run from Arkansas, which captured its first conference tournament title in 26 years. Entering the postseason as the 3-seed, the Razorbacks capped an emotional week in Nashville with an 86–75 victory over Vanderbilt in the championship game, fueled by a record-setting performance from freshman guard Darius Acuff Jr. While Florida dominated the regular season to earn the top seed, the Gators were stunned in the conference semifinals by the Commodores and subsequently suffered a second-round exit in the national tournament. As the Sweet 16 begins, the SEC's presence remains formidable with Arkansas, Alabama, and Tennessee all advancing to the second weekend. The Crimson Tide secured their fourth consecutive Sweet 16 appearance with a 25-point blowout of Texas Tech, while the Volunteers notched a signature upset over Virginia to keep their title hopes alive.
