UNC's National Championship Odds Are a Must-Bet Ahead of Sweet 16
We're through the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament and the majority of top teams, including every single No. 1 and No. 2 seeds, are still alive.
That includes the UNC Tar Heels, who cruised past No. 16 Wager in the Round of 64 and then pulled away from No. 9 Michigan State in the Round of 32. Now, UNC will take on its toughest test to date in No. 4 Alabama in the Sweet 16.
Before the games tip-off on Thursday, let's take a look at the Tar Heels' latest odds to win the National Championship.
UNC National Championship odds
UNC is must-bet at latest odds
Ahead of the Sweet 16, the UNC Tar Heels are listed at +1300 at FanDuel Sportsbook to win the National Championship. That's good for the sixth-best odds in the country behind UConn (+210), Houston (+550), Purdue (+600), Arizona (+850), and Tennessee (+1200).
If you translate their odds to implied probability, the Tar Heels' have a 7.14% chance of winning the National Championship. If you were to bet $100 on them to pull it off, you'd profit of $1,300 if they're able to achieve the feat.
The Tar Heels have by far the longest odds amongst the four No. 1 seeds, with Arizona having the best odds in their region.
The Tar Heels have two potential matchups ahead of them against teams who are known to occasionally have dud performances in Alabama and Arizona. There's also the chance of Clemson pulling off the upset against Arizona and the Tar Heels facing off against them in an All-ACC Elite 8 showdown.
UNC is too talented and too skilled to be listed at +1300 odds and there's a strong argument to be made they hold the best value amongst all teams to win the National Championship.
