NCAA Men's College Basketball Championship Betting Futures, Odds

A preview of the betting odds for the upcoming 2022 NCAA men's college basketball national title.

March Madness is just around the corner!

The major conference tournaments begin this week—the ACC tournament starts Tuesday afternoon—which will affect some of the top seeds in the tournament.

Top-ranked Gonzaga remains the favorite to win the championship at +400 odds, the same as last week. The Bulldogs will look to secure the WAC auto bid tonight against St. Mary's.

No 7. Duke's odds stayed steady at +1200 even after No. 25 UNC upset them at home this past Saturday, ruining Coach K's final game at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

No. 2 Arizona is the second betting option at +600 odds, a massive jump after opening the year at +4000. No. 5 Kentucky enters the SEC tournament with +800 odds after opening at +2000.

Defending national champion and No. 3 Baylor owns +1400 odds, while No. 4 Auburn is at +1000 after opening at +4000.
