Whether you’re betting March Madness picks on just a few games or filling out an entire NCAA tournament bracket, don’t forget about futures betting on the 2015 March Madness championship odds.
Futures betting allows you to bet on outcomes well in advance. Futures bets are typically made before seasons begin, but you can also do them while a season or event is in progress.
The big advantage of futures betting is that you can get big return on your money if you win. Or you can bet on the big favourite without having to risk too much.
The big favourite on the 2015 March Madness championship odds, of course, is Kentucky. The Wildcats have a chance to become the first NCAA basketball team since the 1976 Indiana Hoosiers to go undefeated.
Having a big favourite like Kentucky on the March Madness championship odds creates a lot of value on other teams. Oddsmakers have to inflate the odds on squads like Duke, Virginia, Arizona, Wisconsin and other strong programs in order to get people to bet on teams other than Kentucky.
Don’t forget, there are lots of other ways to get action on the 2015 NCAA Tournament.
