NCAA Tournament Odds: Duke Massive Favorite to Win the ACC

NCAA Tournament Odds: Duke Massive Favorite to Win the ACC
Is the ACC really Duke or bust? That’s what oddsmakers believe. The Blue Devils are simply in a class of their own with little competition in the rest of the conference.
Duke is given -130 odds, or an implied 56.5% chance to win the ACC this year. Those are the best odds given to any High-Major team. Their biggest competition is North Carolina who’s given +700 odds, or just an implied 12.5% chance to win the conference. Notre Dame is also in the mix at +850, or an implied 10.5% chance.

Duke isn’t infallible. They lost their last game to North Carolina, and they’ve dropped 4 games in conference this season. That’s only one game better than Notre Dame and North Carolina. Yet, the talent on Duke and the storyline with this being Coach K’s final season make it impossible for oddsmakers to go against them. As a result, they have the largest odds gap between the favorite and second favorite of any conference, at the time of this writing.
