Whaaat? My site basically has us tied with Creighton as faves. What are the prices? Ultimately, someone can say anyone is the favorite. The only sources that matter are the ones actually taking action on it.

Interesting. That is radically different than other oddsmakers' predictions posted here.

Thanks for sharing. I'm guessing the Athletic got hold of odds from a week ago or so, maybe even right after Xavier beat Creighton?

Makes sense. If the odds you cited were accurate, I was going to suggest we all go over there and bet the house on UConn!

Another nod for the Huskies from the Boston Globe. Starting to scare me. We're so doooomed.
BIG EAST
at New York (Wednesday-Saturday)
Favorite: Villanova. The Wildcats are once again atop the league, but they have serious injury problems, with both point guards, Collin Gillespie and Justin Moore, out. They will have to rely on defense and sleek forward Jeremiah Robinson-Earl.
Contenders: Creighton, Seton Hall, Connecticut, Xavier. Creighton has had problems, too, with coach Greg McDermott suspended — and reinstated on Monday — for using insensitive, racist-tinged remarks while addressing his team. The Bluejays will have to separate that from their on-court performance and rally behind guard Marcus Zegarowski (who’s from Hamilton).
Long shot: Marquette. The Fightin’ McGuires have some interesting talent, especially freshman Dawson Garcia, plus they are in Villanova’s bracket.
Prediction: UConn. The Huskies have finished the season strongly and jumped up a level when star guard James Bouknight returned from injury.

The remaining conference tourneys wrap up this week, and the next stop after that is the NCAA Tournament.
