Indiana Hoosiers betting lines explained
A typical 2020-21 Hoosiers game line will look something like this at most Indiana online and mobile sportsbooks:
- Indiana Hoosiers +2.5 (-110) +155 O 165.5 (-110)
- Michigan Wolverines -2.5 (-110) -175 U 165.5 (-110)
Here’s a quick three-step guide to reading the betting lines:
First is the spread with the odds in brackets. Here, Michigan must win by three or more, but Indiana can win or lose by two or less. Both bets win $100, plus your bet back, for every $110 bet.
The second is the moneyline. Bet on the Hoosiers and if they win, you win $155, plus your bet back, for every $100 bet. Bet on the Wolverines and if they win, you win $100, plus your bet back, for every $175 bet.
The third is the totals line with the odds in brackets. Here, you bet that the total combined score will be over or under 165.5. If you’re right, you win $100, plus your bet back, for every $110 bet.
Hoosiers live/prop betting
There are no restrictions on live betting or props for college sports in Indiana like there are in some other states. That means you can bet on Hoosiers props, which often involves betting on whether the team or individual players can hit certain stat lines. It also means Indiana online and mobile sportsbooks offer live betting on college basketball games.
Live betting gives you the chance to bet on Hoosiers games that are already underway. You place bets at live odds that change with the action on the court. As you can imagine, live NCAA basketball betting happens fast. The odds can change in an instant, making it perfectly suited for betting with any mobile sports betting app that allows you to get down bets quickly before the odds change.
Live betting involves many of the same betting markets you see pregame, but there are also quarter and half bets, and even more in-game props available.
