Actually UK has become the favorite now at 5/1 while Duke has slipped to 8/1. This was updated recently from the April odds.

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

Did that late get at UK make that big of a difference or did something else change?

I'm pretty sure the addition of Jamal Murray was the reason.

 

[UK Cowboy]

I'm pretty sure the addition of Jamal Murray was the reason.

Murray is a monster add. UK/Duke play early if I'm not mistaken. Might be an NBA scout or two in attendance

[Coach]

Duke looks to be the early favorite for 2016-17 after getting Jayson Tatum.
Which in turn gives them the edge in the Harry Giles sweepstakes.

Nothing we do besides winning a title will outdo what we did last season. That championship is the one thing that will make last season feel better. Go Cats!!!

So, do you feel UK will be better than last year? Or not as good? And why?

Honestly, I haven't had a whole lot of time to see who all is playing for us this year. So I can't really say for sure right now.

 

[BoiseMike19]

Boise State 300/1 sounds like an easy money lock to me,

 

[HammerDown]

Vandy at 100:1 is bullshit to me. They have a dominant 6' 11" power forward, a returning 7-footer that can hit the 3 ball and Riley LaChance. There's a reason they're pre-season top 25. I could see 50:1 but this is way off.

Douggie...tsk...tsk..I'm shakin' my head and laughing at your "nefarious" post....

We all know that anytime you make the Final Four it is a great achievement in itself; but usually it goes skipping along hand in hand with a whole lot of luck, and a good draw. I'll take it anytime over going home in an earlier round.

I'm all fired up for the game against your boys this fall. Ought to be a GREAT one!

And as a Loserville fan told me after UK won in 2012...."the past is the past; and I'm not sure what to say about this year."

A great cardnull seer better known as .....Nostradumbass

Have a great week my friend!

Tango,

Don't castigate me so negatively. Not all Duke fans are evil, LOL.

I'm just wanting to hear more about Cal's boys. For instance, who does it look like will be starters for the Cats? Is Poythress healed and ready to contribute? Both teams will be relatively young. It should be a great match up early on between them. They haven't played each other in a while.

Douggie, I don't think Poythress is as far along as he and Cal would like him to be{and he might not be at 100% for the Duke game} but I feel he will start to show why he was recruited and as they say will come into his own by Jan or early Feb. Jamal Murray added a piece we needed to put UK up with Duke. Skal...gonna be awesome.

I honestly think on any given night this game could go either way....but I don't think the win will be by much...maybe a 2-4 point game up until the last 2 minutes.....and you know how those two minutes usually play out.....Euphoria and smiles vs disaster and heartbreak. I don't know which team to pick for either spot.

I don't believe either team will feel ashamed by losing this game. Especially this early on in the season. The teams by March are totally different anyway. I hate to hear of any of these kids getting hurt and not turning pro could have really hurt AP. Last year Duke was healthy for a change. It showed. Duke's injury bug has moved to the football team now.

Seems as if you might have an opportunity to take advantage and win some big money.
Oh, and for what it's worth, I would avoid using the phrase "hit the 3 ball".

 

[SteelersPride]

200-1 on pitt, crap thats horrible, they should be 500-1

 

[douggie]

Last time UCONN was 65/1 odds to win it all they did just that.This is just for grins and giggles for the most part.

Well that's one of my 3 (Kansas and Texas being the other 2).
