On November 9, the Kansas Jayhawks will begin their title defense, and Caesars Sportsbook is the first to offer several College Basketball futures markets.
As the College Basketball season approaches on November 9th, where are all the College Basketball futures markets? Since the Kansas Jayhawks cut down the nets, the National Championship odds have been posted, but we seem to have forgotten about all the other markets. In three weeks, the season will begin!
Caesars Saves the Day
One sportsbook beat all the others to the punch and posted its College Basketball futures before anyone else, and that is Caesars. BetMGM does not have anything posted for College Basketball, not even the National Championship odds, while DraftKings, FanDuel, and PointsBet only offer odds on the National Championship.
It seems like a huge opportunity was missed by the sportsbooks and Caesars will definitely increase their handle in these markets by being the first to post the odds. The moment KenPom released the updated stats for the 2022-2023 season, you knew bettors would begin looking for futures, but everyone except Caesars missed out.
DraftKings, FanDuel, PointsBet, and BetMGM have some serious competition when they see just how many futures markets Caesars has made available.
