The favorite
is NOT UNC. UCLA began this thing as the 7-2 favorite, with UNC and Kansas at 9-2.
This week, all 3 were at 3-1, at least on sportsbook.com (I have not been to Vegas this week so I don't know what is going on there).
UNC may be "the favorite" per the NCAA seeds, but the whole concept of "favorite" comes from the gamblers, and according to the gamblers UNC to win it all would be a mild upset.
At least if you start at the beginning.
As of today, they would be considered a co-favorite. But no matter how you look at it not THE favorite.
Of course, you know what they say about gamblers - show me a gambler that claims to make a living from gambling and I'll show you a man that lives in the park 6 months out of the year.
Just trying to help your credibility with the sporting readers, King...
