College Basketball Odds Winner Takes All
The college game has evolved over time into the world wide phenomenon it is today. International television exposure, bolstered by the birth of the Internet, has resulted in a new generation of sports betting investors who play the college basketball odds.
 The college basketball game has grown in popularity in recent years through the exposure it has received as an international sport. This exposure has been keyed by the growth of cable sports which have found a home on the cable television networks. This exposure started on ESPN at about the same time that the college game experienced a rebirth through the once in a lifetime rivalry of Larry Bird and Earvin ‘Magic” Johnson. ESPN grabbed a hold of the college game and made it the focal point of its winter scheduling. At the same time, the conference known as the “Big East” was born. All of these separate but interconnected events occurred in the years 1979-1980. The Big East was formed to bring unity and strength to a group of mainly Catholic Universities along the Northeast and Eastern part of the United States. The college teams that comprised the Big East were: Georgetown, Providence, St. John’s, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Villanova, Connecticut and Boston College. After the first campaign, the Championship was played at the Syracuse Dome. The college basketball odds on Syracuse taking the first Championship championship were heavily in their favor. Their competition was upstart Villanova. The contest went into three overtimes before Syracuse prevailed. This exciting initial Championship was simply a portend of things to come for the Big East, for ESPN, for college basketball and the college basketball odds investor.
 The Big East, over the next twenty-five years, would expand to an incredible sixteen teams of powerhouse level; ESPN would evolve into the leading sports television network in the world; college basketball would assume a paramount position in the athletic world; and college basketball odds would be the rage of sportsbook casino parlors and online sportsbook gambling casinos on the Internet. The college basketball odds play are the favorite of the Generation X populace whose affinity for offshore gambling sites on the World Wide Web is renowned.
