According to BetOnline, the Hoosiers have 14/1 odds to win the title. Only defending champion LSU (3/1), UConn (5/1), Iowa (7/1), South Carolina (9/1) and Utah (9/1) are ahead of IU.

Fellow Big Ten foes Ohio State (18/1), Maryland (25/1), Nebraska (100/1), Michigan (125/1) and Illinois (150/1) were listed behind Indiana. Purdue was not included. Notre Dame has 25/1 odds to win the 2024 title.
