Here’s what to know about the Final Four oddsboard:
The Favorite(s): Michigan, Arizona and Duke are the top three teams in the country and have a combined six losses on the season. They all sit at 25-2. Michigan will have some tough sledding for the remainder of the season, with two more ranked matchups left on the schedule. The case is similar for Duke and Arizona, both of which have two ranked matchups left. All three are heavily favored to land 1-seeds come tournament time. 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.
Cougars & Huskies: Houston is fourth on this board, has four losses on the year and is only +170 to earn a 1-seed. The Cougars made the Final Four just last season. A little bit further down the board is UConn at +400. 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. UConn suffered just its second loss of the season on Feb. 6, a 9-point defeat at St. John’s and dropped its third game of the year on Feb. 18, a 91-84 loss to Creighton.
