Here’s what to know about the Final Four oddsboard:
The Favorite(s): Duke, Arizona, Michigan and Florida are favored to comprise the Final Four — all four No. 1 seeds. Arizona last made the Final Four way back in 2001, while Michigan last made it in 2018. The Blue Devils last made a Final Four appearance last season, and the Gators are the defending champions. In terms of current form, the Blue Devils did not impress in the first round, while Arizona, Michigan and Florida won in convincing fashion.
The Contenders: UConn, Iowa State, Houston and Purdue are the four teams expected to challenge the favorites in each region, at least according to the odds. The Huskies have won two of the last three national titles (2023 and 2024) and lost to eventual national champion Florida by two in the second round of last season’s NCAA Tournament. In the first round, UConn eked past Furman, while ISU, Houston and Purdue each pulled off 30-point wins.
