It’s major conference tournament week in college basketball and Selection Sunday is less than one week away on March 15. The 2026 NCAA Tournament begins next week and it’s the biggest betting event of the year. The Thursday through Sunday opening rounds of 64 and 32 is the biggest betting weekend of the year. But I’m providing major conference tournament coverage including the ACC and SEC college basketball conference tournament coverage and betting previews initially at OSGA.

Following many key games to finish the regular season in the power conferences, I continue full coverage of major college conference tournament action with schedules, updated game odds and stat profiles including KenPom rankings and NCAA Tournament projections. I’m adding the tournament schedules here along with selective picks, including in the West Coast Conference and Mountain West tournaments in Las Vegas. So check back daily as I update the round-by-round tournament results for the ACC and SEC 2026 college basketball conference tournaments.

It’s also one of the biggest weekend of the sports season in Las Vegas, where I’ll be watching the games at top sportsbooks. I provided a profiles of the top Las Vegas Sportsbooks previously in Forbes, and another update and look at the Durango in SW Las Vegas – a fabulous newer Station Casino’s property with spectacular and special sportsbook and lounge.
