Kentucky's odds to win the SEC Tournament are way too low
No college basketball fan can deny how well the Kentucky Wildcats are playing right now at the most important part of the season.
Kentucky won its last five games and was a buzzer-beater against LSU, away from having won its last seven. The five-game winning streak involves a blowout win over the Alabama Crimson Tide in Rupp Arena, and two massive road wins over Mississippi State and Tennessee.
This winning streak has Kentucky feeling confident as they head down to Nashville for the SEC Tournament, where on Friday, the Wildcats will face the winner between Texas A&M and Ole Miss.
In my opinion, the Kentucky Wildcats have the easiest path to the Championship game, but they have the third-best odds to win the SEC Tournament, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
Kentucky's odds to win it all in Nashville are +370, which is behind Tennessee (+185), Auburn (+260), and right ahead of Alabama (+500).
The Wildcat's path to the championship game is likely Texas A&M, followed by the winner between Alabama and Florida. This path is much easier than both Tennessee's and Auburn's.
It seems like the boom-or-bust nature of this Kentucky team and the defensive issues have the folks in Vegas a bit concerned with the Wildcat's ability to make a run.
Many college basketball analysts believe the Wildcats are the "wildcard" of this NCAA Tournament and are very capable of making a deep run.
Taking Kentucky to win the SEC Tournament comes with a ton of great value, and they have a pretty straightforward path to the final game.
