Sports book future odds on college basketball are interesting to consider but normally gamblers look to get double-digit odds.

Three other teams, Louisville, UCLA and North Carolina are 10-1 at the sports book to win the national title and even those numbers are low since all of those teams attract a lot of attention. A lot of early money has come in on Alabama and they are also 10-1 at the sports book. Syracuse and Michigan State are not far behind at 12-1 each at the Internet sportsbook.

College basketball gets the most attention at the sports book in March but the future odds are on the board virtually the entire year. Sometimes you can catch a surprise team before the sports betting odds makers and get a little value. The futures are not as popular in college basketball because March Madness is really when people start to think about a national title. It is not like college football where you can identify the leading contenders quickly. College basketball has teams that can come from nowhere and make a huge run at the national title and that is just one reason that March Madness is so popular with gamblers around the world.
Futures are interesting and exciting to wager on at the Internet sportsbook. Take a look at them today and make your bets.
