2024 March Madness odds: UConn favored over Purdue
And then there were two.
Now that we are down to the last two teams, the defending champion UConn Huskies remain the favorites to win the men’s college basketball national title.
Despite Zach Edey and the Boilermakers playing great basketball, the Huskies are considerably favorites as of Monday morning.
Let’s look at the updated FanDuel Sportsbook odds to cut down the nets in Phoenix.

UConn has been nothing short of a juggernaut so far in the tournament, winning its four games 39, 17, 30, 25 and 14. And in those five victories, the Huskies have had a different leading scorer four times, an ode to their balanced offensive attack.
“This Connecticut team continues to answer every question, showing on Saturday that even when Alabama shot 8-for-11 from 3-point land in the first half and Mark Sears didn’t miss a shot in the opening 20 minutes, the Huskies didn’t flinch,” said FOX Sports college hoops analyst John Fanta.
