November is here, and we are primed for one of the most exciting college basketball seasons ever, with the NCAA tournament expanding to 76 teams for the first time.
Further conference realignment has changed the landscape across the sport and, even with eligibility concerns still affecting some of the biggest programs in the country, college basketball never seems to disappoint.
Here are my best bets across the board as the season gets underway.
Michigan State Spartans to reach the Final Four: +450
If you read my conference winners preview, you know I'm picking the Spartans to win the Big Ten, but I'm confident enough in this team to win their first four games of the tournament as well.
