It’s never too early to look ahead to next year. A preseason Top 25 is just the start. How about some 2019 national title odds, courtesy of the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook:
- Duke – 5/1
- Villanova – 8/1
- Kansas – 8/1
- Kentucky 8/1
- North Carolina – 12/1

It’s little surprise to see Duke in the top spot with a recruiting class that features the top-three players in the 2018 class while Villanova, Kansas and Kentucky share both blue bloodlines and 8/1 odds, second-best nationally.
