March Madness Future Bets | Illinois South Region +325

Here’s a taste of the 9 regional future bets you get with your package: We hit 3/4 Final 4 bets a year ago!

SOUTH REGION

ASA MARCH MADNESS FUTURE BET – PLAY ILLINOIS +325 to win the South Region

This is the toughest region in our opinion.  All teams in the South Region are plus money and the top 3 seeds all sit in the top 7 of KenPom’s overall rankings. 

We feel it’s toss up between 1-see Florida, 2-seed Houston, and 3-seed Illinois, and are all within 2 points of each other on a neutral court.  Because of that, let’s grab the best odds and the Illini at +325. 

Half of the Illinois losses (4 of 8) have come in OT all vs solid NCAA teams Michigan St, UCLA, and Wisconsin (twice).  They fit the KenPom criteria (explained above) ranking 2nd in the nation in offensive efficiency and 28th defensively. 

They had some injuries during the season with starting PG Boswell and starting forward Stojakovic missing some games.  Both are back and this team is rested and healthy having played only 1 game since March 8th entering this tournament. 

The Illini have some high level numbers in a number of key metrics including 3rd nationally in offensive rebounding, 10th in offensive turnover rate, and they send opponents to the FT line at the lowest rate in the entire country. 

This is the tallest team in the country with two 7 footers and two 6’9 plus players that can all play inside and out.  They also have a top 10 NBA draft pick in Keaton Wagler, who KenPom rates as the 7th best player in the country. 

The downside is they may have to get through both Houston and Florida to get out of this Region but they are definitely capable. We hope you enjoy this March Madness Future bet.

NBA Free Bet | Player prop | Collin Gillespie – Suns

ASA NBA free bet – player prop bet OVER 13.5 Points Collin Gillespie – Phoenix Suns

Gillespie and the Suns take on the Bucks in Milwaukee tonight and we like his odds to have a big impact on the offensive end of the court and score more than 14-points.

Gillespie has been over this number in 6 of the Suns last eight games averaging 16.4ppg. Tonight, he’ll face a Bucks defense that has gotten continually worse under head coach Doc Rivers (I hate to use the word ‘coach’ to describe him), currently ranking 24th in defensive efficiency allowing 1.179-points per possession. This unit was literally one of the best in the NBA in terms of dEFF prior to Doc taking over.

Milwaukee gives up the 3rd most points to opposing point guards on the season at 26.2ppg and they’ve allowed 7 of their last eight PG’s to go OVER their scoring prop.

Gillespie should see about 27-31 minutes of action in this one and will find plenty of open looks against a Bucks defense that allows PG’s to shoot 46% on the season. Gillespie is shooting 43.2% from beyond the arc in his last ten games and has made 3.9 threes per game in his last eight games.

Today’s NBA free bet or player prop is OVER 13.5 Points Collin Gillespie – Phoenix Suns vs. Milwaukee Bucks.

Free Bet | New Mexico vs San Diego State | Feb 28, 2026

#648 ASA FREE BET New Mexico -1.5 over San Diego State, Saturday at 2 PM ET

We’re getting the Lobos at home off a road loss @ Nevada facing the Aztecs on the road off a huge home win over Utah State which pushed them into a tie for 1st place in the Mountain West.  We like this situation for New Mexico in the Pit on Saturday afternoon.  The Lobos lost on Tuesday night while SDSU played on Wednesday giving the host an extra day.  The Pit is one of the tougher places to play and the Lobos are 13-2 here this year and 54-6 since the start of the 2022 season.  A win here would put New Mexico and SDSU in a tie for 2nd place (possibly 1st place if Utah State loses) with 13-5 records.  The Aztecs have 4 losses in conference play and 3 of those came on the road.  When these 2 met in San Diego the Aztecs squeaked out a 4 point win and 49% from the field and 41% from 3 point land.  On the road their offensive numbers drop to 73 PPG (81 PPG at home) on just 1.04 PPP.  It looks like the Aztecs might also be without a few rotational players (Newman & Oden) who are both questionable for this game.  New Mexico is set to host SDSU for possibly the last time in the Pit (Aztecs leaving the MWC after this season) where they are 32-13 lifetime vs the Aztecs.  Let’s lay the small number.    FREE BET today on New Mexico vs San Diego State.

#826 ASA FREE BET ON Utah Tech -3.5 over Abilene Christian, Thursday at 9 PM ET

Because the WAC only has 7 teams, they play each other 3 times.  These 2 have already met twice with Utah Tech handling Abilene Christian both times on the road.  We don’t see that changing now that Tech gets the Wildcats at home.  Utah Tech is 6-1 at home in WAC play with their only loss coming by 4 points vs UT Arlington in a game where Tech made just 1 of 15 from deep (7%) and missed half of their FT’s (9 of 18).  That was an outlier as the Trailblazers are 2nd in the WAC in 3 point FG% at 38% and make 73% of their FT’s in league play.  Abilene Christian has won 3 of their last 4 but all 3 wins were at home and 2 of those wins went down to the wire.  On the road the Wildcats are just 1-5 in conference play with their only win coming by 4 points @ Tarleton State who sits tied for last place in the conference.  Taking a look at the 2 meetings between these teams this season, Utah Tech won both on the road by 6 and 15 points.  However, those games were more lopsided than the final scores might indicate.  Abilene Christian led for just 12% of the time in the 2 games combined while the Trailblazers led for 99% of one match up and 83% of the other.  The Wildcats largest lead in either game was 4 points while Utah Tech led by 25 in one game and 14 in the other, both of those leads coming with under 6:00 remaining in the game.  Both offenses like to shoot the 3 (1st and 3rd in the WAC in percentage of shots taken from beyond the arc) but the problem is, one defense is really good at defending the arc and the other stinks.  Utah Tech ranks 1st in the conference allowing opponents to shoot only 27% from 3 point land while ACU allows 41% from deep (last in the WAC).  In the first 2 match ups those stats played out as expected with Tech making 20 of their 44 triples (45%) while the Wildcats made only 13 of 41 (31%).  No reason to think that changes tonight.  Utah Tech is a half game (1 game out in the loss column) behind Utah Valley for 1st place in the WAC.  They are battling for the conference title and we like them to win and cover at home tonight.

College Free Bet | UCLA vs Illinois | February 21st 2026

#784 ASA FREE PLAY ON UCLA +6.5 over Illinois, Saturday at 8 PM ET

DON’T MISS OUR BEST BET ACTION DAILY HERE AT ASAWINS.COM!

This is just a gigantic home game for the Bruins who are fighting to get into the NCAA tourney.  They have 2 more shots to add a high level win to their resume, tonight vs Illinois and at home vs Nebraska on March 3rd.  The Bruins are 14-1 at home this season, including a win over Purdue, with their only loss coming by 1 point in double OT vs Indiana.  We really like the situation for UCLA as well as they are coming off back to back blowout losses @ Michigan (#1 team in the country) and @ Michigan State who was coming off a 20 point loss @ Wisconsin.  Those losses should give UCLA a little extra motivation here.  On top of that, they catch the Illini off a blowout win @ USC on Wednesday night (Trojans were without their best player Baker-Mazara) and now on the 2nd leg of their west coast trip.  Illinois might be a bit full of themselves after that AND they host Michigan next so this is a potential flat spot for them.  The Bruins are back at full strength with key guard Skyy Clark (13 PPG and 48% 3 point FG%) playing in the last 2 games after missing 10 straight games.  UCLA shoots 49% at home and 40% from beyond the arc while averaging 83 PPG.  Their defense is their strength ranking top 50 in defensive efficiency and 3rd in the Big 10 defending the arc which is key vs an Illini offense that takes 51% of their shots from 3 point land (10th most in the country).  On the other end of the court, UCLA ranks 2nd in the Big 10 making 37% of their triples (that was without Clark their best 3 point shooter for 10 games) while Illinois is 9th in the league defending the arc.  The Bruins have won 15 of their 18 home games in Big 10 play since joining the conference and 2 of those losses were by 1 and 3 points.  They’ve been a home dog just once during that stretch vs Purdue this year (UCLA won outright).  Dangerous game for the Illini and we like UCLA to keep this tight throughout.  DON’T FORGET TO CHECK OUT OUR BEST BET TODAY IN COLLEGE HOOPS!
