Who will win the March Madness bracket on April 3rd?

March 28, 2023 - PRLog -- After the first two rounds, the odds advancing to the Finals changed constantly, with not a single No. 1 seed making it to the Final Four.

The first two rounds of the tournament were very unpredictable. First, top seed Purdue lost to a 16th-seed team, Fairleigh Dickinson, and then, Arizona fell to a 15th-seed team, Princeton. Things then got even crazier when two teams from Florida, Miami FL and Florida Atlantic, upset the Houston Cougars and Tennessee Volunteers, respectively.

After the fifth-seed San Diego Aztecs defeated the Alabama Crimson Tide, the tournament got more interested as the favorite team to win it all got eliminated.

WHO'S FAVORED TO REACH THE FINAL FOUR?

According to Bovada, Connecticut, the fourth-seed, is a -135 underdog when it comes to the West Region. This means that a wager of $135 would win you $100.

The South Region, San Diego Aztecs are the +385 to win it all according to Bovada sportsbook. They were able to upset the fourth-seed team, the Creighton Bluejays.

The fifth-seed Miami Hurricanes were able to upset the top-seed Houston team and advance to the Final Four with a +440 win-line.

The 9th-seed Florida Atlantic University in the East Region is at +600 odds after defeating the Kansas State Wildcats.

WHO'S FAVORED TO WIN THE TITLE?

After a series of upsets during the tournament, the favorites for the Final Four have started to become clear. According to Bovada (http://www.opensportsbookusa.com/go/bovada.html), the Houston team has been the most bet on during the tournament, but Connecticut has received the most money.

WHO IS THE BIGGEST UNDERDOG?

The tournament may be taking a gamble on underdog teams. For instance, the 5th-seed Miami Hurricanes are 4 to 1 and the 9th-seed Florida Atlantic Owls are listed at 6 to 1.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Most of the teams that were presumed to reach the Final Four in the ESPN bracket challenge game have already been eliminated. Alabama was the clear choice to make the championship game with 50% of the bracket entries. We believe it is still anyone's game at this point, each team managed to beat a stronger team and move on to the next round. We believe that one of the Florida teams, Miami FL or Florida Atlantic will cut the net on April 3rd.
