Basketball fans and bettors went all in on embracing the Madness of March and we finally made it to April. And through the Final Four. The betting odds, as always, were on the forefront of fans’ minds.
Houston got demolished by Baylor and their impressive defense, but the UCLA-Gonzaga matchup was one every single viewer will remember for the rest of their lives. A classic. And it set up the National Championship game between Baylor and Gonzaga. But before that showdown happens, let’s take a look at how this Final Four for the books played out on Twitter.
Baylor’s defense was inspiring early in the domination over Houston.
Betting on Houston was an absolutely bonkers move to some as their scoring deficit grew.
Regret filled some who did put money on them.
Baylor bettors were soaking it all in.
UCLA-Gonzaga posed its own set of challenges.
UCLA dominated in the first half but ended up down at halftime.
BUT THEN the second half was one for the ages and Twitter just about melted down it was so incredible.
It’s only fair, though, since we were deprived of this kind of action without a tournament last year.
People really lost their minds over the final shot in overtime to cap it all off. Perfection *chef’s kiss.*
