    College Hoops Champion Futures

    Checking out the odds and it looks like now is the time to play.

    My opinion says the favorites will not win the title so lets figure out the best long shots.

    Favorites:

    Kentucky +260
    North Carolina +475
    Ohio State +475
    Duke +525
    Syracuse +700

    I would take Ohio State, if forced, but I really dont like any of these 5 to win it.

    Kansas +1200
    Baylor +1700
    Missouri +2500
    UCONN +2500 (this has to be a joke)
    Louisville +2825 (another joke)
    Michigan State +3500
    Wisconsin +3550 (kidding right)
    Xavier +3550 (these thugs, no)
    Florida +3750
    Georgetown +4000

    FIELD (betislands) +2500 (no small conf juggernauts this year)

    forced to pick from this group, i would take baylor or missouri, but i really dont see it happening.

    everyone else listed. at betislands, is +5000 or higher.

    so im thinking this group of teams has a damn good chance to hit a payday.
    my suggestions:

    Alabama +10000 (very strong defense, needs to find some 3's though)
    Florida State +10000 (maybe best defense and already showed they can beat UNC and DUKE)
    Michigan +6250 (loads of talent, i can easily see a 6 game win streak, they need the right matchups though)
    Vanderbilt +6750 (3 NBA players)
    UNLV +5250 (loads of talent, again the right matchups could easily get them to the sweet 16 and then anything can happen the way the can score)

    What do you guys think?

    I recently locked in Vandy, Florida, Alabama, and Florida State..

    I like Mich State as well..

    A handicapper I respect thinks the title comes from SEC this year... That's why I have 3 SEC teams

    Like Florida too. Any of the three big XII teams are not good choices in my opinion. Kansas is always likely to choke 2nd or 3rd round and Baylor has a subpar coach.

    I think UNLV is worth a shot at those odd.

    I picked up OhioSt earlier this year at +800.

    I figured decent value.

    I just got some Vandy.

    If and when they beat Florida tomorrow and a couple other pretenders lose the odds will not be this good come Monday.

    Good luck on your futures dudes
