Kansas Tops Cinderella-Free NCAA Tournament Odds

Special to Outkick The Coverage from OddsShark.com

There is no Cinderella team in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament this year, since the only double-digit seeds left are a pair of historical basketball powers in Gonzaga and Syracuse. That leaves the top storylines for the Big Dance in the hands of the favorites, with the Kansas Jayhawks the +350 chalk to walk away with the tournament title. North Carolina (+425), Virginia (+575), and Oklahoma (+750) follow behind the Jayhawks on those betting futures, with Oregon and Villanova both at +1200. The Duke Blue Devils are a step back at +1800 on that odds list.
