NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament Betting Odds Heading into the Sweet Sixteen

As always – we had an outstanding first weekend of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. There were spectacular finishes and major upsets, and after a long four days of basketball – we’re down to the final 16 teams.

Last week I previewed who I thought would win each region (using betting odds provided by BetOnline.ag), and I was pretty much dead wrong. I went 2 out of 4 as the Kentucky Wildcats lost to the 15-seeded St. Peter’s on Thursday, and the Auburn Tigers forgot how to play basketball on Sunday night against the Miami Hurricanes.

We do still have our championship game in tact with Gonzaga and Arizona still alive.

Below I’ve outlined each remaining team’s odds to win the tournament, and each Sweet Sixteen matchup with the spread, point total, and moneyline. Per usual, all of our odds are provided by the online sportsbook BetOnline.ag.
