UConn doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon, with the Huskies leading the Women's March Madness odds after winning their first NCAA Tournament in nearly a decade under head coach Geno Auriemma last season.

The Huskies are -285 favorites to win March Madness, thanks to the play of arguably the best one-two punch in the country, Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd. Trailing the undefeated Huskies are UCLA (+700), South Carolina (+950), Texas (+1400), and LSU (+1800).

With Selection Sunday set for March 15, UConn is the clear top team in college basketball, but it still has a long way to go to win a second straight championship.
