2023-24 Women’s March Madness odds: Iowa’s loss shifts odds; UConn surging
The South Carolina Gamecocks seem unstoppable, and at 23-0, that might very well be the case.
Their odds to win the women’s college basketball national championship are currently +160 after defeating No. 11 UConn 83-65 over the weekend.
Tied at second on the board are the defending champion LSU Tigers and the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Iowa’s odds lengthened slightly to +800 from +700 after it fell 82-79 to Nebraska on Feb. 11.
Though the Hawkeyes’ odds to win it all got longer, all eyes are still on Caitlin Clark — the 6-foot senior who leads the country in both points and assists per game.
Fans and bettors are now watching to see when Clark will break the women’s all-time scoring record, currently owned by Kelsey Plum.
As of Monday, Clark is eight points shy of making history. The Hawekeyes next play Thursday against Michigan.
Which other teams are making statements as the season heads into the final stretch?
