The Super Bowl was clearly the biggest sporting event that is going to take place in the month of February, but that action isn’t going to come to a complete stop. This is actually going to be another big weekend in the world of sports, and three events really stand out.
Not only will there be some big events to watch this weekend, but some good betting options are going to emerge as well. Here is a look at three big sporting events to check out this weekend, but know that there are other games out there as well.
Marquette Golden Eagles vs. UConn Huskies
Saturday is always a big day when it comes to College Basketball, but there are some games that tend to stand out more than the rest. When looking at the schedule on Saturday, there is a massive matchup set to take place in the Big East Conference.
Marquette is going to be coming into this game as the fourth-ranked team in the country, and they have been red-hot since the calendar flipped to 2024. The Golden Eagles have a superstar in Tyler Kolek, but this is going to be a tough road game.
UConn is now the number 1 ranked team in the country again, and the Huskies seem to be getting better as the year is moving along. The Huskies are going to be betting favorites in this game, and they just have so much talent as they cover the spread.
Daytona 500
The Daytona 500 is one of the biggest sporting events of the year, and it’s a great way to kickoff the action in NASCAR in 2024. There are many different ways to bet on the Daytona 500, but trying to bet on the winner is always a great option.
Ryan Blaney has been one of the betting favorites since the odds were released, but there are some other drivers that are now in the mix as well. Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch have joined Blaney with odds set at +1200, and one of those three drivers will win this weekend.
Betting on the winner of the Daytona 500 is a great option, and taking one of those drivers will come with plenty of value.
NBA All Star Game
The NBA All Star Game is set to take place this weekend as well, and this is always one that attracts plenty of attention. Some exhibition events are not fun for fans to watch, but that’s not the case with the NBA.
Stars drive the NBA, and there are some massive stars that will be showing up in Indianapolis this weekend for the All Star Game. The betting odds have the Western Conference as slim 3.5-point betting favorites, but it’s hard to predict how these games will go.
The Eastern Conference is a team full of stars as well, and they have enough talent to come away with a win in this game. There is more value in betting on the Eastern Conference as well, and taking them to win on the moneyline is the bet to make.
