It's time to look forward to Elite 8 odds.

While the matchups on Friday night will determine the seventh and eighth teams to advance from the Sweet 16, we have our first two games that will punch tickets to the Final Four.
The Drew Timme-led Gonzaga squad took down UCLA in epic fashion and will face UConn, which is coming off a very impressive win over Arkansas. In the East, Florida Atlantic will face Kansas State after both teams achieved tight wins over Tennessee and Michigan State.
For now, here are my projected Elite 8 odds and totals for those two matchups, which will be played on Saturday night.
