Bettors Hammering UConn, Kentucky, and Houston in 2024 NCAA Tournament First Round

According to the American Gaming Association, legal sportsbooks will take in nearly $3 billion in action for the 2024 NCAA Tournament. So far, public sports bettors haven’t been afraid to lay the lumber with some of the NCAA Tournament’s top teams.

According to Ben Fawkes, No. 1 seeds UConn and Houston along with No. 3 seed Kentucky have taken over 80% of the action in their respective first-round contests at DraftKings Sportsbook.
