For sports fans in North Carolina, it’s the final countdown until mobile sports betting becomes legal state-wide. By this time next week, anyone in North Carolina will be able to place a bet on any college basketball game, including big-time matchups like Wednesday’s top-10 battle between the Connecticut Huskies and the Marquette Golden Eagles, two teams with legitimate national championship aspirations. Fortunately, with March Madness around the corner, there will be plenty of great college basketball games on the schedule once North Carolina betting goes live on March 11.

In the meantime, now is a great time to claim your pre-registration bonus at BetMGM Sportsbook. By registering for a BetMGM account before the launch date using our promo code WSNMGM, you’ll receive $200 in bonus bets once everything officially goes live on March 11, putting you a few steps ahead of everyone else who waits. Keep in mind that this is one of several bonus opportunities available in North Carolina during the pre-registration period.

BetMGM North Carolina Bonus

For new BetMGM users in most states, the current welcome bonus gives you $150 in bonus bets for making a $5 bet after signing up. However, the good folks of North Carolina will get an even better deal if they register with BetMGM in anticipation of the March 11 launch date. 

All you have to do is sign up for your BetMGM account, use the promo code WSNMGM, and make an initial deposit of $10. That will get you $200 in bonus bets deposited into your BetMGM Sportsbook account when March 11 arrives and everything goes live. From there, you’ll be able to place any bet available at BetMGM and take advantage of everything else BetMGM Sportsbook has to offer beyond its welcome bonus in North Carolina.

Breaking Down the BetMGM North Carolina Bonus

UConn vs. Marquette Prediction and Bet

As we mentioned, there is a top-10 matchup on Wednesday between no. 2 UConn and no. 10 Marquette. The Huskies have already locked up the Big East regular-season title and have their sights set on repeating as national champs. They also crushed the Golden Eagles 81-53 when they met earlier this season.

Meanwhile, Marquette is hoping to avenge that earlier loss to the Huskies. The Golden Eagles are also looking to bounce back from a 14-point loss to Creighton over the weekend. That will be much harder to do with star point guard Tyler Kolek sidelined with an injury. However, they are hopeful that big man Oso Ighodaro will return on Wednesday after missing the loss to Creighton because of an illness.

While it’ll certainly be an uphill climb, all hope is not lost for Marquette without Kolek. The Golden Eagles are 8-1 against the spread in home conference games. Likewise, the Huskies have been vulnerable on the road at times. UConn’s two conference losses came away at Seton Hall and Creighton, the two teams right behind second-place Marquette in the Big East standings.

Despite some concerns about UConn on the road, the Huskies are favored by 5.5 points in this game. That’s a fair spread for this situation and one that UConn should be able to cover. The Golden Eagles may get a lift from being at home, but they are a completely different team without Kolek, who is among the best players in the country. Without him, look for the Huskies to win comfortably and cover the spread.
