What is the result of Tulane vs Duke?

Often, prediction market odds reflect the wisdom of the crowd and can differ from those offered by sportsbooks. Sportsbooks set initial lines to balance their risk, and may incorporate a 'vig' or commission. This market, however, is driven by individuals trading based on their own analysis and information. If a significant number of traders believe a sportsbook’s odds are inaccurate, they can influence the price here, potentially creating a discrepancy. It’s common to see prediction markets more accurately forecast probabilities, especially as an event approaches.
