Bettors that simply want to bet on Kentucky to win the NCAA Tournament can get them at +110 at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. Conversely, bettors can take the field at -140 in betting that the Wildcats won’t win the tournament.
Think Kentucky will steamroll through March Madness? “Will Kentucky win the NCAA Championship and win all six games by 10 or more points” pays +500 on Yes and -800 on No. Betting that Kentucky will never trail at halftime of any game during the NCAA Tournament pays +200, while the Wildcats trailing at the half at least once is a -260 favorite.
And of course, bettors can parlay Kentucky with their political party of choice in the 2016 presidential election as Kentucky winning the championship and a democrat president being elected pays +200, while a Republican president being elected pays +500.
Which of the No. 1 seeds will be the first to be eliminated in March Madness? Villanova is the favorite at +150 at the sportsbooks; Wisconsin is going off at +200, Duke at +300 and Kentucky at +700. If two No. 1 seeds are eliminated in the same round, this prop will be graded no action.
Will this finally be the year that a No. 16 seed upsets a No. 1 seed? Bettors that back the four No. 16 seeds will score a +900 payday if at least one of them prevails. Chalk bettors can back the four No. 1 seeds to advance at -2000 on the NCAA Tournament betting lines.
No NCAA Tournament feels complete without buzzer beaters, and yet there being zero buzzer beaters is the betting favorite at 5/7 at the sportsbooks. How many buzzer-beating shots will there be in the 2015 NCAA Tournament? “One” pays 2/1, “Two” pays 6/1, “Three” 10/1, “Four” 18/1, “Five” 40/1 and “Six or More” is 50/1.
