2026 College Basketball Odds: Can Miami (OH) Go Undefeated?
It's not the Miami you usually think about when it comes to college sports — but this Miami is making fans pay attention. The No. 22 Miami (OH) Redhawks are doing something remarkable this season, sitting at 26-0 with five regular-season games to go. Such a season has essentially come out of nowhere. The Redhawks finished last season 25-9, but prior to that, they finished below .500 in 14 of 15 seasons. And their one winning season in that span was a 12-11 campaign in 2020-21. In other words, this is not a juggernaut of a basketball program. Regardless, Miami is on fire this year. Can it go undefeated? Let's take a look at the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Feb. 19.
