NCAAB Futures Betting Odds

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, 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.
