How Good is Tennessee on College Basketball Odds at SBG Global

College basketball odds fans saw the University of Tennessee Volunteers rise all the way to number one in the land last season before crashing back to earth and burning out in the NCAA tournament college basketball betting lines.

This season the Vols return many of their players from last years core and are looking to make another run in the college basketball odds. But just how good this team really is remains tough to judge at this college basketball odds juncture.

College basketball odds makers and poll voters rank this team somewhere around 12 the list of college basketball odds teams. Starting the season mid pack in the college basketball betting lines rankings should be a good omen for the Vols and they should be able to quickly capitalize on that ranking once the college basketball odds season gets underway.

The Vols will be led this season by standout Tyler Smith who was very strong last year in the college basketball odds competition and is in the running for national play of the year this season. In fact, several talent scouts think Smith could be a top five lottery pick in the NBA draft once the college basketball odds season winds up. He’ll have to take over the principal scoring role vacated by Chris Lofton but seems more than up to the task.

Other key players returning from last season’s college basketball odds campaign include Wayne Chism and Brian Williams who should dominate the conference in the paint and could both end the season averaging a double-double. If Smith can shoot well from the perimeter this could be a very dangerous trio and by far the best in the college basketball betting lines in the SEC. The perimeter game is the biggest question for this team and sharp shooting freshman Scotty Hopson will have to fill in for Lofton’s deadly three-point shooting when the college basketball betting lines action begins.

A soft conference schedule should also greatly benefit this team in the college basketball odds polls. Just like last season a less than stellar SEC conference schedule allowed this team to rise all the way to number one in the college basketball betting lines rankings before crashing back to earth. But a tough non-conference schedule should allow this team to demonstrate to college basketball odds makers just how good it is. A similar rise in the college basketball odds polls should be expected but the Vols could have the talent to stay there this year.
