NCAA Final Four Predictions: Huskies Favored for Repeat

The Road to the Final Four is officially set, and the defending national champion UConn Huskies are the resounding favorite to cut down the nets again according to ESPN’s team of experts. In a poll of 73 analysts, writers and commentators, a whopping 83% have Dan Hurley’s squad winning the East Region and advancing to the national semifinals in Glendale, Arizona. That’s even higher than the 53.6% of brackets submitted on ESPN’s Tournament Challenge that have UConn emerging from the East.
