HOW TO BET ON COLLEGE BASKETBALL GAMES

How to bet on college basketball? The Betway sportsbook is the easiest place to bet on March Madness.

Simply visit the Betway desktop site or download the Betway app, create an account, and place CBB bets in just a few clicks. Place live basketball bets while out shopping, at the game, or from the comfort of your home with the Betway sports app.

HOW TO READ COLLEGE BASKETBALL ODDS

CBB betting follows the same rules/guidelines as most other popular sports. Here’s a quick primer of college basketball odds explained:

  • CBB Moneyline: a bet on the outcome of a game

  • CBB Point spread: a line that evens the playing field. If a team is “5” points better, their spread will be -5

  • CBB over/under: a bet on the total points scored between two teams

  • CBB live betting: a bet placed once a game has started

  • -CBB same game parlay: a bet on multiple events occurring in the same game

COLLEGE BASKETBALL MONEYLINE

An NCAAB moneyline is one of the most popular college basketball lines. A moneyline bet is a wager on the outcome of the game -- moneylines are adjusted based on the quality difference between the two teams. Here is an example:

  • The Iowa women’s basketball team are -150 favorites against LSU, who are +140 underdogs

  • The Iowa moneyline of -150 suggests that Iowa is the better team

  • A $150 bet on Iowa will return $100 ($250 total)

  • A $100 bet on LSU will return $140 ($240 total)

COLLEGE BASKETBALL POINT SPREAD

A NCAAB point spread bet is a wager on the spread of a game. A NCAAB spread is the perceived margin of difference between the two teams, like a handicap. Here is an example of a NCAAW spread bet:

  • The Iowa women’s team are playing the LSU Tigers at home

  • Iowa are -4.5 favorite, meaning they are projected to win by 4.5 points

  • A bettor places a spread bet on Iowa

  • Iowa won by 4 points, meaning the bet will NOT cash

CBB ATS (against the spread) bets are one of the most popular forms of college basketball bets. The Betway Insider blog offers tips for NCAA basketball picks against the spread all season long.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL OVER/UNDER

A recent college basketball betting trend is the rise of over/under bets. Over/under bets are easy: they are wagers on the cumulative scores of the two teams in a contest (though over/unders on each specific team, as well as over/unders per quarter, are also available).

“Over” bets are some of the most checked CBB odds out there.

Here’s an example of an over/under bet:

  • The Arizona men’s basketball team are playing Arizona State

  • Both teams are relatively high-scoring, so the over/under line is set at 138.5

  • Arizona wins 74-66 --- 140 total points are scored

  • An over bet would hit

LIVE COLLEGE BASKETBALL BETTING

College basketball live betting is easy to understand: they are bets placed once the game has started. This means that the lines have likely moved since the beginning of the contest.

Let’s use an example of betting on women’s college basketball:

  • The Iowa women’s basketball team opens as -140 favorites against LSU. A better places $140 on the Iowa moneyline

  • However, LSU stormed to a 10-point lead at the end of the first quarter. The live Iowa moneyline has now moved to +160 because they are trailing

  • A bettor places a $100 live bet on Iowa at +160.

  • Iowa wins the game. The bettor will win both bets, totaling $260 in return ($100 from pregame the moneyline and $160 from the live moneyline bet).

COLLEGE BASKETBALL PARLAYS

NCAAB parlays are exciting ways to combine action from multiple different games into a single wager. A single parlay can include action from multiple games or events throughout any period of time. CBB parlays are particularly popular during March Madness when there are up to 16 (or more) games a day.

Here’s an example of a NCAAW parlay:

  • The Iowa women’s basketball team has a -4.5 spread to win

  • The Ohio State women’s basketball team has a -7.5 spread to win

  • The UConn women’s basketball team has a -12.5 spread to win

  • A bettor places a three-leg parlay on Iowa, Ohio State, and UConn to cover the spread. For the bet to hit, Iowa must win by 5 or more, Ohio State must win by 8 or more, AND UConn must win by 13 or more

COLLEGE BASKETBALL SAME-GAME PARLAY

A CBB same-game parlay is very similar to a parlay with one exception: all bets must be from the same game/contest. Same-game parlays are a fun way to bet on more than just the outcome of a game -- bettors can wager on the moneyline, over/under line, AND specific player props all in the same game.

Here’s an example of a college basketball same-game parlay:

  • Iowa is playing LSU in the women’s NCAA tournament

  • Iowa is a -5.5 favorite to win

  • Caitlin Clark’s o/u on points is set at 29.5

  • A bettor places a SGP on Clark points over and Iowa to cover the spread

  • For the parlay to hit, Clark must score 30 or more points and Iowa must win by at least 6
