We’ve also added point spreads to help contextualize first-round matchups, as seeding does not always indicate forward-looking quality.
For example, Providence is the No. 4 seed but is just a 2.5-point favorite over No. 13 seed South Dakota State.

When Is the Selection Show?
The NCAA Tournament Selection Show is expected to begin at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday, shortly after the Big Ten Tournament wraps up on CBS.
Who Gets in to the NCAA Tournament?
The March Madness field is 68 teams, including 32 automatic bids awarded to teams that won their conference tournaments.
The other 36 spots go to the 36 teams with the best resumes. There’s some subjectivity in that process, as there’s no formula and the final decisions are made by the 10-person selection committee.
Who Was on the Bubble?
There are seven teams that are not consensus at-larges in BracketMatrix’s aggregation of 128 expert brackets, but appear in at least 45 brackets.
Of course, the committee is not the same as forward-facing analysts who make bracket predictions, but it’s generally pretty close.
Teams like Miami, Michigan, Wyoming and Notre Dame appear in at least 75% of brackets, so they’re on the right side of the bubble at the moment.
Who Is the NCAA Tournament Favorite?
The bracket might adjust things slightly, but for the most part, the betting favorites will remain the same pre-tournament and post-Selection Show.
Gonzaga is the favorite at +350 at DraftKings, with Arizona and Kentucky the only other teams at less than +1200.
| Team | Title Odds | Final Four Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Gonzaga | +350 | -120 |
| Arizona | +650 | +130 |
| Kentucky | +700 | +150 |
| Baylor | +1200 | +250 |
| Duke | +1200 | +275 |
| Kansas | +1400 | +275 |
| Auburn | +1400 | +275 |
| Purdue | +1400 | +300 |
| Texas Tech | +2000 | +500 |
| Villanova | +2500 | +600 |
Gonzaga will enter the NCAA Tournament as the favorite for the second straight year, and is an odds-on favorite to reach the Final Four.
Many of the usual suspects are also in the mix, including Baylor, Duke and Kansas.
