Chalk: Duke among programs to fade in tourney

If there's one thing the college basketball season has taught us so far, it's that parity rules. There is little, if any, separation at the top on a given Saturday.

Six different teams have been ranked No. 1, none of them holding the spot for more than four total weeks (Michigan State), and the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook doesn't have anyone listed at better than 6-1 to win the title. So doesn't everyone potentially have great value?

With the field this open, there's no single team to garner enough interest in a futures market to distort and lengthen the odds of the teams beneath it.
