Contenders and Sleepers in College Hoops Online Sportsbook. Online sportsbook odds will have Kansas and Texas favored in almost every game this season as both look like real contenders for the 2010 college basketball title. Both teams are unbeaten and look like the class of college basketball this season at the Internet sportsbook.
Online sportsbook odds do have some other contenders besides the top two but there may be a little bit of a gap. Syracuse has some impressive early-season wins and has the ability to beat one of the top two. Perhaps a team like West Virginia does as well on a given night. Even Duke and North Carolina have the ability to stay with Kansas and Texas although North Carolina already had their chance and Texas ran away from them in online sportsbook results. This could be the season in college hoops at the online sportsbook where two power teams really run away and hide. And since Kansas and Texas are in the same conference they will meet at least once this season. They could play as many as three times if they meet in the Big 12 title game and again in the national title game.
You might be wondering why Kentucky is not a serious contender to win it all at the Internet sportsbook. The problem for Kentucky is that they have been very lucky. They have one player and usually one player is not enough to win a national title. While John Wall is great, teams usually win titles in college hoops. Kentucky is very young and experience usually wins over youth in big games. Purdue is another team that looks like a contender but time will tell.
Looking at sleepers in online sportsbook odds is always interesting. There are a number of good ones early this season. BYU has to be at the top of the list. They have a marquee player in Jimmer Fredette who already put up 49 points against Arizona in a big online sportsbook win. They are not just a one man team either as they have Jonathan Tavernari who can shoot the threes. Don’t sleep on teams like Mississippi State and California at the online sportsbook as these teams could make some serious noise this season. Missouri and Memphis are two more teams that could make some noise in their respective conferences this season at the Internet sportsbook. Remember it was just last year that Missouri made the Elite Eight. Until USC decided to sanction the basketball program you could have put the Trojans on the sleeper list too at the Internet sportsbook, but not anymore.
