We are so close to March.

Just nine days separates us and the month of March — when the madness arrives.

The college basketball season has already been a roller coaster — that bared its teeth on Tuesday night when Creighton beat No. 1 UConn 85-66.

UConn is still the favorite to win the National Championship with the Huskies at +500 to win it all at DraftKings.

There has been a narrative going around this season that UConn and Purdue are in a class of their own in college basketball. Purdue is right behind UConn in terms of odds at +700, but both teams have appeared to be vulnerable.

Houston has been in the mix all season long and sits behind Purdue at +900 at DraftKings. Then there is a clump of teams between +1200 and +2000 to win the National Championship that features Arizona, Tennessee, Auburn, North Carolina, Alabama, Kansas and Iowa State.
