Big Ten Basketball Conference Tournament

2022-2023 Big Ten Basketball Conference Winner Odds & Betting Futures

February 16th, 2023 By: Vincent Senick

Mid February Update

The Big Ten has been a let down in totality when viewing the performance of the conference as a whole. There were six teams expected to be in real contention for the conference crown at the onset of the season. Only Purdue has returned on that expectation. Purdue was the lone overachiever, even being ranked as the top team in the country for a time, and sit atop the Big Ten.

The Boilermakers currently lead the scorching hot Northwestern Wildcats by a game and a half in the conference. No other team is within realistic striking distance with the regular season coming to a close soon enough. Even with the surge from the Wildcats putting them within striking distance to win the regular season crown, oddsmakers do not believe that shot to be realistic. Big Ten regular season odds are off the board across all sportsbooks.

There will be plenty more betting action in the Big Ten down the stretch. Check back ahead of the Big Ten tournament and scroll down to grab more betting picks from other college basketball conferences.

Preseason Look

The Big Ten is going to be very balanced this season and there may not be one great team. Indiana is the favorite, and the only team under 5/1, but Michigan and Purdue are right behind them at 5.5/1. Illinois and Michigan State, 6/1, and Iowa, 7/1, are the only other teams under 10/1.

Ohio State could have a chance to make some noise, they are currently 10/1, but it would be a shock if any of the other seven schools make much of an impact in 2022-2023.

In terms of the national championship odds, Michigan is the first team to pop up at 25/1 and Indiana and Illinois are also around there at 40/1 and 45/1, respectively, to break the long Big Ten drought. I do not think this is the year for the Big Ten to make any noise.

Big Ten Conference History

The Big Ten comprises 14 teams and it became one of the last NCAA Division 1 conferences to establish an annual tournament. After playing out their regular season schedules, Big 10 teams compete in the Big Ten men’s basketball tournament.

The tournament seedings are based on each team’s regular-season record. The winner earns a spot in the NCAA Division 1 tournament. The Big Ten has not won a National Championship since Michigan State in 2000 and have not had a participant since Michigan in 2018.

Indiana is a slight favorite to win the conference, but Michigan is higher in the odds to win the National Championship. It should be a fun year in the Big Ten.
