Selection Sunday for March Madness is four days away, and nearly every hour between now and then will be filled with College Basketball Conference Tournament games.

A majority of programs competing in these conference tourneys are vying for an automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament. These teams are in a win-or-go-home scenario, so gamblers and NCAAB fans can expect plenty of passion on the court in every game.

The elevated competitiveness makes it difficult for legal College Basketball betting sites to create accurate game lines for conference tournament contests. That variance can create room for a large payday if you place your basketball bets wisely.

Despite already possessing a ticket to the big dance, many top seeds hold sizable leads in their conference tournament futures. For instance, the Purdue Boilermakers are ranked third in the nation and will earn a spot in March Madness no matter what happens between now and Sunday.

Still, Purdue is placed 200 points ahead of the Illinois Fighting Illini in the odds to win the Big Ten Tournament. Even though the Boilermakers are expected to win, you can still double your money by laying some action on them now.
