Big Ten & NCAA tourney: Odds to win

Dave Carney 3/8/2021    

What’s on the table today?: Big Ten Tournament & NCAA March Madness odds to win.

With the Big Ten Tournament set to tip-off on Wednesday with two games *(#13 Minnesota vs #12 Northwestern)* and *(#14 Nebraska vs #11 Penn St)*. The winner of the MNvsNW game will face #5 OSU, and the winner of the NBvPenn St game playing the #6 Wisconsin Badgers.

Wisconsin ended it’s regular season with a 77-73 loss to Iowa, dropping the Badgers to 10-10 on the season in Big Ten play, which is why you’ll see the odds for the Badgers to win the Big Ten Tournament, and the NCAA Tournament so long.  The shame of this for Wisconsin, and Wisconsin fans is simple; this years’ team was supposed to be good. Really good. Pre-season #4 in the country good.

While this season has been a disappointment there is still a way for the Badgers to turn it all around, and it starts in the Big Ten Tournament. Thanks to my friends at The Lines.com for hooking us up with these betting odds for the Big Ten Tourney which starts Wednesday as mentioned.

Once the winner of the Big Ten Tournament is decided it’s on to the NCAA Tournament and the Round of 68. 

As of this morning thanks to Oddsshark.com the early odds are out there for a number of top teams, and for our purposes, I’ll take you as far as where the Badgers are at on the odds line.
