March Madness is around the corner and the odds for the women’s tournament are on the move.
Last year, the South Carolina Gamecocks won it all during the 2024 NCAA women’s March Madness and currently, they’re the favorites to take the tournament again.
However, two recent losses have caused South Carolina’s title futures to lengthen.
Let’s take a look at the NCAA tournament betting board at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Feb. 17.
NCAA Women’s Tournament Winner 2025 odds
South Carolina: +225 (bet $10 to win $32.50 total)

The Gamecocks won the national title in 2022, lost in the Final Four in 2023 and then won the title again last season. But in each of those seasons, they won at least their first 12 games.
In their sixth game of this season, they fell 77-62 at UCLA.
Then, on Feb. 9, South Carolina suffered its second loss of the year, falling 66-62 at Texas. On Feb. 16, the Gamecocks dropped their third game in a shocking 87-58 loss to UConn.
Their odds in the last week shifted to +225 from +175.
Currently, they’re No. 6 in the rankings, behind No. 1 Notre Dame, No. 2 Texas, No. 3 UCLA, No. 4 USC and No. 5 UConn.
Speaking of UConn, the Huskies are second on the board. Their odds moved up to +370 from +450 after taking down the reigning champs.
Now, going back to UCLA.
