I think oddsmakers are giving Central Michigan way too much credit. I don't think the Chips have a legitimate chance to win the tournament. Even if you assume they'll advance to the finals, I'm not sure I would give them 3-to-1 odds against Kent.
Buffalo's odds are too long. They have a decent chance if their shooters get hot. They have beaten every team in their path (Miami, Kent, Akron).
Flashes are 2-to-1 favorites to win MAC Tournament
