Power 5 Conference Tournament Odds: ACC, SEC, Big 12, Big Ten, Big East - Cam Boozer
  • Duke is favored to win the ACC with -350 odds.
  • There are -180 odds for Florida to win the SEC Championship.
  • Arizona has +110 odds to win the Big 12.
  • UConn has -125 odds to win the Big East.
  • Michigan has -110 odds to win the Big Ten.

NEW YORKPower Conference college basketball tournament fields are set, and tournament play is set to begin on Tuesday afternoon with conference championship games scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.

Odds for each conference tournament on legal sports betting sites are scattered, with some odds set closer than others. The five power conference tournaments being played this week include the ACC, SEC, Big 12, Big Ten, and Big East.

2026 ACC Tournament Odds

  • Duke (#1) -350
  • Virginia (#13) +750
  • Louisville +1000
  • Miami Florida (#22) +2000
  • North Carolina (#17) +2200
  • Clemson +3500
  • NC State +5000
  • SMU +15000
  • Florida State +20000

There should be no questions asked regarding Duke’s heavily favored CBB odds to win the ACC. They have a top-5 scoring offense in the conference (82.9 ppg), are the number one ranked defense (62.5 papg), and have the highest point differential margin (+20.4) as well. They’ve also lost just one game total in conference play, finishing with a 17-1 record.

Duke has won two of the last three ACC Championships and has been to three of the last four championship games.

2026 SEC Tournament Odds

  • Florida (#5) -180
  • Alabama (#16) +700
  • Arkansas (#20) +700
  • Tennessee (#23) +850
  • Vanderbilt (#24) +1800
  • Kentucky +3500
  • Georgia +5500
  • Texas A&M +5500
  • Missouri +8000

The reigning National and SEC Champion, Florida Gators, sit with the shortest odds by a mile as the only team under +700 and under even to win. They’ve gotten hot at the right time, having won 11 straight games just ahead of tournament play. They hold a conference high +16 average scoring differential and a 16-2 conference record.

2026 Big 12 Tournament Odds

  • Arizona (#2) +110
  • Houston (#7) +200
  • Iowa State (#6) +800
  • Kansas (#14) +850
  • Texas Tech (#10) +1700
  • BYU +4500
  • Cincinnati +8000
  • TCU +8000
  • Central Florida +25000

The Big 12 is shaping up to be a closely kept tournament, with Arizona and Houston leading the charge with the two shortest odds. Arizona sits two games ahead of Houston in the conference standings with a 16-2 record. Arizona has also beaten Houston in their lone regular season matchup, 73-66. They also have the highest scoring offense in the conference and a +9.1 advantage on Houston.

2026 Big Ten Tournament Odds

  • Michigan (#3) -110
  • Illinois (#11) +460
  • Purdue (#15) +600
  • Michigan State (#8) +650
  • Nebraska +1000
  • Wisconsin +3000
  • UCLA +3500
  • Iowa +5000
  • Ohio State +7500

The Michigan Wolverines should be the only team to look at in the Big Ten tournament, having run through the conference to the tune of a 19-1 record. They were ranked the #1 team in the country for weeks and averaged a massive +19.3 point differential, which includes the top offense in the league as well.

2026 Big East Tournament Odds

  • Connecticut (#4) -125
  • St. John’s (#18) +210
  • Villanova +650
  • Creighton +5000
  • Marquette +8000
  • Providence +8000
  • Butler +10000
  • DePaul +10000
  • Georgetown +10000
  • Xavier +20000

The Big East has not been the strong power conference that it is known as this season. However, UConn did not get the memo on that as they’ve consistently been ranked as a top-10 team this season.

They could see some pressure from St. John’s, who split the season series with them 1-1. St. John’s also sits just one game ahead of the Huskies in the conference standings.
