Updated odds still don’t love Auburn and Tennessee’s chances to win NCAA title

The Auburn Tigers and Tennessee Volunteers have been two of the biggest surprises in the country this year.
Neither were expected to do much, but they are the SEC’s top two teams as things stand heading into the stretch run.
However, they aren’t getting much love from oddsmakers, as both the Tigers and the Vols have +4,000 odds to win the NCAA title this year, as you can see in the tweet from OddsShark below:

Arizona +1800

Kansas +2000
Xavier +2000

That puts Auburn and Tennessee tied for the 15th-best odds to win it all, which seems a bit ridiculous considering all they’ve accomplished so far.
There’s still time left in the season, though, so it’ll be interesting to see if either squad can earn some more love from oddsmakers before the NCAA Tournament tips off in March.
