PropSwap Buys of the Week: NCAA Futures
With the NBA coming off a brief All-Star hiatus, sports bettors were presented with an opportunity to focus on the college basketball landscape this week. With conference tournament season starting up next Monday, teams are jockeying for position to make a push towards a magical NCAA Tournament bid.
Last Saturday, the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee provided a window into the seeding process by listing their current Top 16 seeds throughout the four regions. Today we look at some fantastic college basketball futures on PropSwap, specifically, two teams seeded very high by the committee.
PropSwap is an open marketplace where you can post tickets and make them available via a straight sale or a bidding process. In many ways, PropSwap is an eBay for sports tickets. It is the perfect resource for bettors who are looking to escape from an unfavorable bet or sacrifice a big payday to lock in a more modest gain. If you buy a ticket on PropSwap, it is sent to you via certified mail. If your ticket wins, it must be redeemed at a licensed sportsbook. The typical expiration date is six months or 180 days.

Arizona to Win the NCAAB Championship
- PropSwap Odds: 9.00/1
- Current Odds: +800 (Consensus)
- Ticket Cost: $750
- Win: $7,500
After serving for 20 seasons as an assistant at Gonzaga under brilliant head coach Mark Few, Tommy Lloyd finally nabbed his first head coaching job with Arizona. Taking over a program in disarray from Sean Miller's departure, Lloyd has navigated the Wildcats to a 24-2 overall record, including 14-1 in the Pac-12 Conference. Arizona earned the third-overall seed in the Bracket Preview Show and is on track for a No. 1 overall seed when the NCAA Tournament begins.
This is precisely why PropSwap is such a great resource, as there is an available futures ticket that beats the current Vegas odds. Arizona is listed at +800 on most sportsbooks to win the championship, with a current high of +850 on Caesars. However, if you believe in the Wildcats, you can grab this 9-to-1 ticket on PropSwap that could potentially net you $7,500.
The Wildcats have the perfect championship profile, ranking seventh in both offensive and defensive efficiency, per KenPom.com. They have a unique roster profile, ranking as the second-tallest team in the nation. As a result, Arizona is in the top 10 in the country in offensive rebounding.
This is rated as a “Best Price” by PropSwap, and is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the stronger national support for teams such as Gonzaga, Auburn and Kansas. Arizona is a very strong National Championship contender, and PropSwap provides the perfect opportunity to take advantage of a great wagering value.
Kentucky to Win NCAAB Championship
- PropSwap Odds: 8.25 to 1
- Current Odds: +800 (Consensus)
- Ticket Cost: $2533
- Win: $23,437.76
We win in sports betting on the margins.
We have a current ticket available on Kentucky to win the National Championship at 8.25-to-1, slightly better than the +800 general consensus odds.
Kentucky is always a team that will gain national betting support. The Wildcats have won eight national championships and finished as the runner-up on four separate occasions. The Wildcats (23-5) are just one game behind Auburn in the SEC race, despite battling through several injuries. Head coach John Calipari has again built one of the most explosive offenses in the nation, ranking third in overall adjusted-offensive efficiency, per KenPom. Kentucky is also second nationally in offensive rebounding rate, while holding opponents to just 30.1% (29th overall) from three-point range and 46.3% (45th overall) from inside the arc.
When the Wildcats get their pair of guards (TyTy Washington and Sahvir Wheeler) fully healthy, they have an incredibly solid profile as a National Championship contender. Their recent loss at Tennessee has created value in the betting market, giving us an opportunity to beat the books' current +800 odds. This is also a featured "Best Price" ticket on PropSwap.
Kentucky is always a difficult team to battle in the NCAA Tournament, and this gives us a chance to grab the 'Cats at 8.25-to-1, a number that will only drop as the season progresses.
