Last year's title game featured the No. 6 and 8 seeds. Can another long shot dump the favorites?
Towson's the team to upend in this year's field. The Tigers won a league-high 24 games during the regular season alongside the best cover rate in the Colonial (22-9, 71%).
They're blistering-hot entering March, as winners of seven straight.
Towson's price of +115 to win the CAA conference tournament implies a 46.5% probability.
The only team to match the Tigers' 15-3 record in conference play during the regular season was UNCW (21-8). The Seahawks also finished second behind Towson in both win percentage (.724) and ATS record (17-10, 63%).
Northeastern, meanwhile, was the worst bet during the regular season, with a 9-19-1 clip against the spread (31%).
James Madison is banned from the tournament due to realignment.
