NCAA Tournament odds: How Villanova's title futures have moved all season
At the beginning of the season, the Villanova Wildcats had short odds to win the 2022 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament as the fourth-ranked team in the country. Now after an incredible March, Jay Wright and his squad find themselves two wins away from their third national championship in six seasons.
The Wildcats have been great in 2022, with only three losses since New Year’s Eve. After closing out the regular season with seven wins over their last eight games, Villanova won the Big East Tournament and has ridden star guard and two-time Big East Player of the Year Collin Gillespie all the way to the Final Four.
Now that the Wildcats are back in familiar territory, let's take a look at how their futures have moved throughout the year, courtesy of FOX Bet.
