With the Final Four settled, the betting market is favoring the reigning national champions.

The UConn Huskies are -190 to cut down the nets — again — with a new-look roster compared to the team that won the 2023 championship. The Huskies easily dispatched of Illinois, 77-52, behind an incredible 30-0 run to punch their ticket to Phoenix.

They'll face Alabama in the Final Four after the Crimson Tide edged Clemson, 89-82. Alabama will look to upset its second No. 1 seed of the tournament after beating UNC in the Sweet 16.

And NC State upset Duke to cement their status as one of the craziest Cinderellas of all-time, going from completely out of the tournament bubble three weeks ago to nine straight wins.

They'll face Purdue, which edged out Tennessee on Sunday afternoon.
