March Madness: BetUS Offers Futures for Men’s and Women’s Tournaments

March Madness 2026, the most popular NCAA tournament in all of college sports, is on the horizon, and BetUS already has a full complement of futures in the men’s and women’s divisions. Let's discuss this year's favorites based on the college basketball odds available at BetUS.

Let the Madness Begin!

College basketball fans eagerly await the arrival of March Madness, the ultimate college sports tournament. But before the highly anticipated Selection Sunday occurs on March 15th, there are conference tournaments that will not only crown the winners but will also be instrumental in determining the seedings of the 68-team Big Dance.

But whether it is a slate of regular season NCAA basketball games on a chilly night in December or pivotal conference tournament battles in March, BetUS has moneylines, point spreads, totals, player props, and the increasingly popular live betting on all of the action.

The stakes only get higher as the March Madness schedule unfolds because that’s where memories are made and legends are forged. BetUS has March Madness odds in both the men’s and women’s tournaments for college basketball fans of all persuasions.

This year BetUS’s college basketball odds on the winner of the men’s tournament reveal that Michigan (+325), Duke (+425), and Arizona (+450) are the favorites to take home the hardware. In the women’s tournament, UConn is the prohibitive favorite at odds of -290, with UCLA (+675) and South Carolina (+850) as the other top choices in the women’s March Madness bracket.

It is important to note that moneylines, point spreads, totals, and even futures are dynamic; they will fluctuate. This is why we encourage our customers to lock in a line if they see something of value. Money moves the odds and the lines, which is why we don’t want anyone to miss out when they spot value.

BetUS has wall-to-wall coverage on March Madness games and offers a wide range of futures options. We not only have odds listed for each team to win the national championship but also which schools will ascend to the Sweet 16, the Elite Eight, the Final Four, or even allow our customers the opportunity to predict which two teams will clash in the national championship game.

BetUS has odds on all of that and every basketball matchup throughout the regular season, conference championships, and, of course, the Big Dance. We also have a section devoted to college basketball news to ensure that our customers are equipped with the latest information so that they can make knowledgeable choices when they are at our virtual betting windows.
