South Region

Top seed Auburn is a massive favorite to win the South Region, with a betting line of -140 for the Tigers. No. 2 seed Michigan State is at +500 to win the South. No. 3 seed Iowa State is running at +800 despite the injury to standout Keshon Gilbert.

The team with better odds than its seeding is No. 8 seed Louisville. At +2200, Louisville has substantially better odds than the No. 7 seed Marquette (+2800) and slightly worse odds than the No. 5 seed Michigan (+1900).

West Region

The Florida Gators are a -125 favorite to claim the West Region. Interestingly, No. 3 seed Texas Tech (+550) has better odds than No. 2 seed St. John's (+600). No. 4 seed Maryland (+750) is also getting good odds for a team in its seed line.

No. 7 seed Kansas (+1800) and No. 8 seed UConn (+2000) each have better odds than No. 5 seed Memphis (+5500) or No. 6 seed Missouri (+2200). Memphis is certainly getting some betting line disrespect.

East Region

Top-seeded Duke is a -120 favorite even with Cooper Flagg's injury. No. 2 seed Alabama is a +450 pick to win the East. No. 6 seed BYU (+1500) and No. 7 seed St. Mary's (+1800) both have better odds than No. 5 seed Oregon (+2200).

Both No. 3 seed Wisconsin (+850) and No. 4 seed Arizona (+950) are long shots to emerge with the East Region crown.

Midwest Region

Top seed Houston (+105) has the worst odds of any of the No. 1 seeds. Correspondingly, No. 2 seed Tennessee (+390) is getting the best odds of any of the No. 2 seeds to win the region. Bizarrely, No. 8 seed Gonzaga (+950) is getting the third-best odds of any team in the Midwest. That's certainly far ahead of No. 7 seed UCLA (+2800).

No. 3 seed Kentucky (+1000) and No. 4 seed Purdue (+1300) have slightly longer odds than usual. No. 12 seed McNeese State (+9000) is getting surprisingly decent odds compared to the other high seeds of the region.
