NCAA Men's Basketball Middle Bets

There aren't as many trending Middle Betting markets in college basketball mainly because the BetSmart tracking tools have just recently expanded to add more NCAA Basketball odds, lines, and data.

Over the last 7 Days, there haven't been any Middle Bet markets for college hoops that have produced a significant ROI. While the markets are not profitable enough yet to strongly consider, we will continue to keep an eye out for Middle markets worth following.

There's a full men's college basketball schedule set for tonight, with a top-25 match-up between St. John's and UConn as well as six other ranked teams in action. With the large number of bets available, the BetSmart Middle Betting Tool is currently identifying 77* Middle Bets in men's college basketball.

*This number is at time of publication. Middle betting opportunities come and go fast, as odds and lines typically change often.
