Early Season College Basketball Betting at SBG Global Sports Betting

College basketball betting really has four different segments within the entire season. You have the preseason, the conference season, conference tournaments and then March Madness.  Each segment on the basketball schedule is different and must be handicapped accordingly. Today we want to look at early season NCAA basketball betting. College basketball betting early in the season consists of non conference games and the early preseason tournaments like the preseason National Invitational Tournament, the Maui Classic and others. Many times you will have some of these smaller tournaments where the home team is hosting the tournament. Handicapping the early stages of a NCAA  basketball schedule is difficult for NCAA basketball betting players.  You don’t have a good handle on teams early in the year because of the roster turnover and the fact that many of these teams treat these early season games as tune-ups for the regular season.

The preseason NACA basketball schedule is a good news/bad news situation for the NCAA basketball betting player. It is good news if you have a better feel for the teams than the NCAA basketball betting oddsmaker. It is bad news if you can’t figure out what is going on. Sometimes you will see the NCAA basketball betting oddsmaker give more credit to marquee teams than they actually deserve early in the season. You have to remember that the NCAA basketball betting oddsmaker doesn’t have much of an idea of how teams will play early in the year so they inflate the NCAA basketball betting line on the big name teams. This is good news for you if you find out that some of these teams may be overrated. Teams like Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Connecticut and others will sometimes be overpriced early in the year in college basketball betting simply because they have a strong reputation. Remember though that reputations don’t win ball games in college basketball betting.

As you look at the early part of the NCAA basketball betting season look for information on the teams that the NCAA basketball betting oddsmakers may not know. There are no guarantees at any time during the college basketball season. If you can pick up some early season information and concentrate on what you have seen, then you might have an edge in NCAA basketball betting during the preseason. If not, then you need to be careful during the early part of the college basketball betting season.
