Happy March 1st!

As the famous Jon Rothstein likes to say, this is March.

March brings the madness and the focus over the next couple of weeks will be the March Madness bubble. Which teams are in and which teams are out?

There are more than enough bracketologists out there making their best guesses on which teams will make the tournament, but sportsbooks are taking legitimate money on teams to make or miss the tournament and those numbers could be more informative.

DraftKings has an entire catalog of odds for teams to make or miss the tournament. Let's take a look at who they are listing as of March 1.

Going off of probability, Colorado State, Wake Forest, Virginia, New Mexico, Seton Hall and St. John's are in. Colorado and Indiana State are 50-50. And Villanova, Providence, Cincinnati and Drake are on the outside looking in.
