Updated College Basketball Championship Odds
A majority of the college basketball regular season has been played and is currently in the final stretch. The best teams have floated to the top like so much cream. Houston (+800 at BetOnline.ag) proved itself most recently by defeating #6 Iowa State without any real trouble. UConn (+450 at BetUS) has proven that they were not a one-year wonder and currently lead the odds board to win it all.
College basketball is the most fair of all sports in that it gives even the tiniest program a shot at the trophy. The NCAA tournament is one of the most exciting events in American sports for that very reason. As far as smaller schools go, there are two with a real shot. Located in Omaha, Creighton University (+2000 at SportsBetting.ag) doesn’t even have a football program, yet they are near the top of the odds to win it all. The team is currently on a 4 game win streak and has achieved 20 wins already this season. Marquette, long known as a basketball school, is also a small school in comparison with the state Universities and is also sitting at +2500.
Best Long Shot Bets
San Diego State (+8000 at EveryGame.eu) is a good longshot pick. The Aztecs are 20-7 and have a very good shot at winning the Mountain West. They’ve beaten Stanford as well as Gonzaga on the road. Utah State seems to be the only team that really gives them trouble. They just dropped their last game to Utah State on the road, albeit only by 5 points.
Speaking of Utah State, why not throw 50 bucks on them right now at BetOnline.ag for a shot to win 5 grand? The Aggies are +10,000 with a record of 22-5. There is a real long-shot value play here.
