2020 March Madness Odds: Super Early Look into the Future
Tread Lightly with Kentucky
Kentucky had a successful 2018-19 campaign, putting together a 30-7 record en route to an Elite Eight berth before falling to Auburn in overtime. Undoubtedly head coach John Calipari will possess the Wildcats playing at a high level, but he’ll need to enter the season with rather a different appearance. Four of Kentucky’s starting five are very likely to graduate or be drafted into the NBA since Reid Travis is an old and P.J. Washington, Keldon Johnson and Tyler Herro will probably be going pro.
All is not lost, however, since the Wildcats have already done a fantastic job recruiting for the upcoming season, procuring two 2019 McDonald’s All-Americans, shooting guard Tyrese Maxey and small forward Khalil Whitney. I expect sophomores Immanuel Quickley and E.J. Montgomery to lead the fee and will work well with the incoming freshmen. With their new appearance, I would be hesitant to lay a bet on this club at +500 at this point.
Kansas Could be Well-Balanced and Experienced
Kansas had a very intriguing 2018-19, showing flashes of brilliance along with being rated in the top five in the AP survey for eight months, including two weeks in the top spot. Overall, the Jayhawks ended the year with a 26-10 record, falling to Auburn in the Round of 32. Kansas was a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde team as it came to house and away splits, heading a perfect 16-0 at Allen Fieldhouse but only 3-8 in true road games — very confusing results.
The Jayhawks needed to battle through injuries, losing protect Lagerald Vick for its summer. He’s a senior and won’t be back next year. Junior centre Udoka Azubuike and just nine games played in 2018-19. However, Kansas, despite those holes in the frontcourt and backcourt had a Round of 32 look. The Jayhawks should be feisty this forthcoming season as I do not expect Azubuike to be drafted and Vick will be their sole loss, so chances of +2000 provide decent value.
