Frequently asked
Who's 2025-26 Topps Bowman University NOW March Madness for?
For collectors who want hits without Cup money. Figure on an auto or relic every box or two, with rookies you'll actually recognize.
What makes this product special compared to other Bowman U sets?
This is the only officially licensed NCAA trading card product featuring game-used relics from March Madness itself. You can pull 1/1 patch autographs from actual tournament gear, plus cuts from tournament-used basketballs. The set size also jumped to 60 cards for 2026, up from 16 in previous years.
Who are the key rookies and stars in the checklist?
The set features top men's and women's NCAA Tournament players including AJ Dybantsa (BYU), Darryn Peterson (Kansas), Sarah Strong (UConn), Caleb Wilson (North Carolina), and Braden Smith (Purdue). Both All-Americans and tournament standouts are included across the 60-card base.
What's guaranteed in every box?
Every hobby box comes with 3 autographs or autographed relics and 3 numbered parallels. You're pulling hits in every box, which is why the price point is premium.
