Welcome to the weekly Future Update report, a look at our current portfolio of investments to win Omaha. The goal is to assess each team midweek, determining if the market has value with regards to winning the College World Series. Every week I will publish a Futures Top 10, a ranking that will focus on the value of the number and not so much on who can win Omaha. Although Tennessee is the best team in College Baseball, the better number for investment may reside in another team.
Here is our Top 10 Ranking of the best College Baseball futures (odds per DraftKings):

Notes for the latest Top 10:
- The number remains stable after a weekend road sweep of Vanderbilt. Arkansas +900 might be in a last call situation with an upcoming series against Missouri. Anything but a sweep in Fayetteville this weekend would be a disappointment. Series against Georgia, Texas A&M, Florida and Texas await which could move the Razorbacks closer to Tennessee +400.
- Georgia was our hot buy last week at +2000, a number that has now been chopped in half after a sweep of Auburn. The Bulldogs will now embark on a true test through the road in the SEC, including trips to Texas +1500 and Vanderbilt +2000 with a host role against the Razorbacks in-between.
- Clemson +1000 continues to drop in the rankings. Not because of performance, but the number has minimal value with expected series wins coming up against Cal +15000 and Stanford +4000.
- Oklahoma +4000 is certainly under the radar in the case the +6000 is not in the portfolio. The Sooners took a game in Tuscaloosa against top 15 ranked Alabama +2000, leaving the Crimson Tide just -3 in net runs. A series win against LSU this weekend will lower the current market number, but April series against Vanderbilt and Missouri should provide a softer spot in a brutal schedule for Oklahoma.
- The biggest question is whether it is time to step outside of the SEC to look for a winner in Omaha. Florida +4000, Mississippi State +9000, South Carolina +9000 and Texas A&M +5000 all have a 1-8 record in conference. The Gators and Aggies have top 10 toughest remaining schedules, while the Bulldogs are 35th.
- Following along the path of remaining strength of schedule, UCLA and Oregon have two more weekend series before going head to head on April 18th. One of these teams is sure to host a Regional with the possibility as a Super Regional host with a Big Ten Championship. Considering the Bruins have a remaining schedule rank of 118th, there should be no resistance to the postseason for the 14th ranked UCLA +6000.
