The UConn Huskies have been outright dominant. They've barely trailed in the second half of their 2024 NCAA Tournament games and beat San Diego State by 30 points in the Sweet 16. They are steamrolling competition on their way to back-to-back titles, but their projected odds to win a nearly double what books are offering for reigning champions.
Purdue has been dominant as well, but their odds don't exactly show value. The four current best bets to win the NCAA Tournament heading into the Elite Eight are Tennessee (+700, with our predicted odds +629), Duke (+850, with our predicted odds +490) Illinois (+1700 with our predicted odds +1381), and Alabama (+1700, with our predicted odds +967).
Of course, those are just the available NCAA Tournament odds at FanDuel, so be sure to shop around at your available sportsbooks and compare the live lines to our expert projections.
