Who do you like to win it? UConn (Defending Champs), Houston, and Purdue, lead the betting markets. NCAA Mens Basketball Championship 2024 Connecticut +550 Houston +700 Purdue +750
I had UConn last year and I'll stick with them this year. I have them beating Purdue in the Final. Other two Final Four teams are Houston and Arizona.
3 #1 Seeds and a #2 (Arizona). The other #1 Seed is North Carolina. A lot of people like UCONN vs Purdue in the Final...
First Big Upset #14 Oakland over #3 Kentucky. Over 99.99% of Brackets ALREADY Busted... Over 22 million March Madness bracket submissions were busted on ESPN's platform alone Thursday—less than a day into the men's NCAA Tournament—according to the sports network, with fewer than 0.001% of brackets remaining perfect on ESPN and the NCAA's bracket challenges
If one looks at potential matchups, Arizona seemingly has an easier path to the Elite Eight than UNC. Arizona could very well take the West Region. UNC (already) has a much tougher Round 2 Matchup.
#11 Seed NC State Upsets Duke to get to Final 4. Odds to Win Title: UConn Huskies -200 Purdue Boilermakers +210 North Carolina State Wolfpack +1200 Alabama Crimson Tide +1600
Would love to see Purdue win as they knocked us out. UT class of ‘74, Son class of ‘00. Would be great for an SEC team to win but …it’s Alabama, . As a Marylander, (ACC roots still run deep) happy Duke got eliminated. Final: UConn + Purdue = Purdue
Hard to imagine UCONN losing the Final... Of course, in Madness anything is possible... In any event, UCONN (on their historic streak of dominance) vs Edey and Purdue would be Epic... As far a Duke losing? A very popular result for fans of Schadenfruede. Crybaby Filipowski had become the most despised player on the planet, and many people loved watching him implode. https://www.sportskeeda.com/college...ke-forward-fouls-elite-eight-matchup-nc-state
Any love for Caitlin Clark? She’s amazing. The women are getting some NCAA love this year. It’s nice to see. This LSU v IOWA game is filled with 3 pointers.
Couldn’t believe that last call. I didn’t see a foul but so it goes. Tomorrow’s game will be a good one for sure. Would like to see Iowa win their first but Im going for the three-peat. Plus, my neighbor’s daughter just committed to South Carolina and she’s so happy and excited to begin her collegiate experience. She’s been rockin’ her SC sweatshirt all week. Go Gamecocks!
I envy folks into sports. Just never got into it myself, but it seems fun to be a fan. I tell my wife the same thing about her wine drinking. Not a wine drinker myself but it seems like fun to be into it and try different wines. Of course, I do like craft beers so I've got something similar.
