Only one team from the AAC will definitely make it to March Madness, and that\u2019s Houston. The Cougars made the Final Four last year thanks to a dream bracket, and they will likely be on either the No. 1 or No. 2 line this Sunday. Memphis and SMU are currently on the bubble, but a strong showing over the span of three days in this tournament could tip the scales in favor of the Tigers and the Mustangs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2022 AAC Tournament will be held at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas from March 10-13. Houston, SMU, and Memphis are the top three seeds, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/ncaam-futures\/conference-tournaments\">oddsmakers aren\u2019t giving any of the other eight teams<\/a> in the conference much of a chance to grab the AAC\u2019s automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AAC Tournament Betting Odds at <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/ncaam-futures\/conference-tournaments\"><strong>BetOnline<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Houston -155<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Memphis +275<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SMU +750<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tulane +1400<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wichita State +2200<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cincinnati +2500<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UCF +2800<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Temple +3300<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Every Other Team +12500 or More<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelvin Sampson has worked his magic to make Houston one of the best basketball programs in the country once again. The Cougars had not advanced past the first round of the NCAA Tournament since the Phi Slamma Jamma days before Sampson came to campus, but he has consistently bettered his previous result to lead Houston to the second round, the Sweet Sixteen, and then the Final Four last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Houston won its first AAC Championship last season. The Cougars are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/ncaam-futures\/conference-tournaments\">odds-on favorites<\/a> to win again in 2022 as both Wichita State and Cincinnati have really struggled. Even though they have been without Marcus Sasser and Tramon Mark for most of the season, they have continued to dominate the AAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Memphis Tigers have not been fundamentally sound, but they are extremely talented. Memphis had the top recruiting class in the country last season. They were just 9-8 in the middle of the year, yet everything has come together over the last several weeks. Memphis has won 10 of its last 11 games, beating Houston twice to potentially punch a ticket to March Madness. Four players are averaging at least 10 PPG, but Memphis also leads the nation in turnovers on offense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That makes SMU a tempting pick to win the AAC at +750. The Mustangs aren\u2019t a great team, but they have been able to beat Memphis twice and split their two games with Houston. Kendric Davis has been impressive at times, leading SMU with 19.5 PPG, and this team has four solid perimeter shooters that are all averaging at least 10.6 PPG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wichita State <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/sportsbook\/futures-and-props\/ncaam-futures\/conference-tournaments\">may be worth a small play<\/a> if you feel like rolling the dice. It\u2019s been a down year for the Shockers, as they are 15-12 and need to win the AAC Tournament to make it to the Big Dance. The Shockers haven\u2019t had much luck against the top teams in the conference, but they took both Houston and Arizona to overtime before losing. The defense is strong, and Wichita State can pull off an upset or two if the offense plays well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Follow our&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/betonline_ag\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Twitter account<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;for the latest sports news and wagering odds, and come to our&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/betonline_ag\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Instagram<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;for more useful betting info too.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last conference tournament to get underway is the AAC Tournament.
