2027 women’s March Madness odds: UConn leads, USC rises with JuJu Watkins return

Despite some drama and an upset loss in the semifinals after being one of the chalkier favorites in recent memory, Geno Auriemma’s Connecticut Huskies are, yet again, the strong favorites to win next year’s women’s NCAA Tournament.The Huskies’ +170 odds on FanDuel imply a near 40 percent probability that they can win it all next year. While Auriemma is expected to lose two key starters, Azzi Fudd and Serah Williams, he is returning much of his dominant roster that extended an undefeated streak for 54 games before falling in this year’s Final Four.Advertisement
