College basketball conference tournaments are just around the corner, and Tuley’s Takes is here to guide you through the best betting opportunities. While top teams may not prioritize winning their tourney titles, they’re still looking ahead to the Big Dance. Meanwhile, underdogs in these games are highly motivated, often good bets to keep the game close and cover the spread.
Let’s take a closer look at some of the mid-majors:
Missouri Valley Conference (March 6-9): Bradley is living in Drake’s shadow but could be a good bet against their favor in the title game. The Braves’ wagers on the under might pay off, with their forum member having gone 39-21 over the past decade.
American Athletic Conference (March 12-16): North Texas has been strong and could be a live dog against Memphis, who’s already a lock for the NCAA tournament.
Atlantic-10 Conference (March 12-16): Teams like George Mason and Dayton will need deep runs to secure their spots. Virginia Commonwealth might be fadeable if senior guard Phillip Russell isn’t at 100%.
Mountain West Conference (March 12-15): New Mexico, Utah State, and Boise State are likely NCAA locks, but UNLV could be a good bet against these teams.
Big West Conference (March 12-15): UC Irvine may be the play in a potential title game against UC San Diego.
