2020 NCAAF Mid-Major Conference Championship Futures

Due to the lack of live sporting events to bet on right now, many of the top-rated online sportsbooks have accelerated their time line for releasing futures and prop bets for the biggest betting leagues. They have also added some extra betting options to help fill the void.

Instead of looking at the same tired NCAAF futures odds to win the 2020 national championship, you can bet on conference championship odds in early April.

There are so many unknowns among so many Division IA teams in the absence of spring practice and an annual spring game. This actually adds some solid value to these type of NCAAF betting futures.

This is especially true when it comes to the posted futures to win each of the five Mid-Major conference titles.

AAC Conference Winner

The ACC has quickly been able to establish itself as the strongest Mid Major in D-IA ball. Four different teams finished the 2019 season with a spot in the final College Football Rankings.

As far as the futures odds to win the AAC in 2020, the Central Florida Knights top the board as +125 favorites.

They are coming off a down year by their standards at No. 24 with a 10-3 record. A strong recruiting class with a number of key starters back from last year’s roster adds value to those plus money odds.

Other top contenders include Memphis (+250) and Cincinnati (+275).

Conference USA Conference Winner

As the largest Mid Major with 14 teams, there is a definite separation between the contenders and pretenders in this title race.

The Florida Atlantic Owls rolled to the C-USA Championship last season at 11-3 overall and 7-1 in conference play. Yet, they are +300 second-favorites to repeat. I still have them at the top of my list in light of those favorable odds.

Other teams in the running include Western Kentucky as a +200 favorite along with UAB (+400), Louisiana Tech (+550) and Marshall (+550). Southern Miss at +600 is another the team to watch.

Mid-American Conference Winner

The MAC betting odds are highlighted by the Ohio Bobcats (+325) as favorites along with the Buffalo Bulls and the Central Michigan Chippewas at +400.Must See: Early Sleepers to Win 2020 Heisman Trophy

Last season, Miami (Ohio) beat Central Michigan 26-21 for the MAC title. This year, I like the betting value in Buffalo coming off a 5-3 record in conference play. I am looking for the Bulls to quickly reload in a possible run to the Top 25.

Ball State is worth watching at +600 along with Miami (OH) and Toledo at +800.

Mountain West Conference Winner

When you think of the Mountain West you think of the Boise State Broncos. They notched another conference title last season as part of an 8-0 run through the regular-season conference schedule.

Finishing the year as the No. 23 team in the nation, the Broncos have been opened as odds-on -200 favorites to win the MWC title again this year. Betting Boise State to win comes with some added risk but so does betting against them.
