The absence of No. 1 seeds makes UConn the favorite to win the men’s NCAA tournament.
With favorites Alabama and Houston losing on Friday and no top seeds in the Elite Eight for the first time ever, the Huskies are the new favorites for the national title at +300 at BetMGM.
UConn looked extremely impressive in its Sweet 16 win over Arkansas on Thursday night. The Huskies will play Gonzaga on Saturday for a trip to the Final Four.
Alabama entered the Sweet 16 as the betting favorite at +350 with Houston not far behind at +400.
