College basketball is winding down for another season. But before the curtains fall, the NCAA National Championship is the final closing act to a grueling season. The odds have Virginia as the favorite, but bookmakers are calling it close between two teams without prior championship game experience.

— NCAA March Madness (@marchmadness) April 8, 2019

Analysis: Texas Tech has been tearing up courts since early February, going a 14-1 SU run that includes covering all five of its March Madness games. They face a Virginia team that’s on a 14-1 SU run since mid-February themselves.

Both squads are top defenses, so the score might be on the low side should you bet on the total. Neither team tends to score too many points, with Tech averaging 72.6 points per game and Virginia 71.1.

Don’t expect this to be a flashy game; neither team has an NBA star-studded roster. If you’re picking the winner of the 2019 NCAA Tournament’s Most Outstanding Player Award, there’s an open field of players to choose five.

Virginia has betting history on their side as the odds-on favorite. Chalk has gone 24-10 SU in National Championship Game history.
