After the craziest opening weekend ever, the NCAA Tournament is down to the Sweet 16 and many of the pre-tournament favorites have already been eliminated.

Other high seeds in North Carolina, Michigan State, Cincinnati, and Tennessee saw their seasons end this weekend.

As such, it's time to take a look at which remaining teams have the highest odds and are considered the favorites to win the national championship, courtesy of Pregame.com's R.J. Bell:

Unsurprisingly, the two remaining top seeds in Villanova and Kansas have the two best three odds to win the tournament, while the two lowest seeds left - Loyola and Syracuse - have the worst odds.

Kentucky has also emerged as a favorite despite being a five seed largely due to their easy path to the Final Four and the high level they played at during the tournament's first weekend. 

Texas A&M has also seen their odds dramatically increase after knocking off UNC in the second round, up from 150/1 prior to the tournament to 33/1.
