When you get to the Final Four, all the teams are good. There’s no sure thing when it comes to which teams to bet on, so it’s probably best to just listen to the experts.
Former oddsmaker Todd Fuhrman joined our Bill Reiter to discuss the best value play remaining in the Final Four and, perhaps surprisingly, it was one of the No. 1 seeds:
“You’re not going to get rich at this point, but I like Gonzaga at a shade less than 2-to-1. You look at the Zags, 6.5-favorites, as we discussed, against South Carolina -- so I think they win that game and do so comfortably.
“And when we forecast ahead, if they meet North Carolina in the national championship, the Tar Heels are a 1.5, maybe two-point favorite, which I think is a gross overestimation of UNC. And if Oregon is able to upset North Carolina, you’re looking at Gonzaga as a sure favorite. I think the Zags at +175 make the most sense.”
