BetMGM gives Penn State basketball long shot title odds. So you’re saying there’s a chance?

The new era of basketball at Penn State still has a long way to go to being a national title contender.

Penn State basketball is in the early stages of ushering in a new era with head coach Micah Shrewsberry at the helm. Shrewsberry takes over a program that has appeared in the NCAA Basketball Tournament just twice since 2000, and nobody is expecting him to turn the Nittany Lions into a national title contender any time soon.

But that hasn’t stopped BetMGM from putting odds on the Nittany Lions winning it all next college basketball season. And as you probably already may be expecting, Penn State doesn’t exactly have the best odds to be cutting down the nets next season.

Penn State is listed at +15000 to win next season’s college basketball national championship.

Here’s how the rest of the Big Ten stacks up on the BetMGM board for next year’s national championship…
