LSU entered the college baseball season with the second-best odds (7/1) to be the last team standing in Omaha.
The Tigers are still favorites after they advanced to the College World Series finals with a dramatic, walk-off victory against rival Arkansas.
Coastal Carolina rolls into this best-of-three set riding a 26-game winning streak. The Chanticleers have outscored NCAA Tournament opponents 64-25, so this is no “underdog.”
Coastal started the season a 55/1 chance (tied for 22nd-best odds) to take home the second CWS title in school history. Here are the current odds for Game 1 and the series, via SportsBetting.ag:
Game 1 (Saturday)
