South Carolina Gamecocks: 2024 NCAA Champions Dominating Women’s College Basketball

The South Carolina Gamecocks are the 2024 NCAA Champions, and they have made history in more ways than one. Dawn Staley’s team dominated this season, culminating in a thrilling victory over Iowa in the national championship game.

Not only did the Gamecocks secure the title, but they also set a new record for the most bet women’s sporting event in BetMGM history. The game surpassed the previous record set by Iowa’s Final Four matchup against Connecticut, with 34 percent more bet slips. It even saw more betting action than all 13 NBA games played that day, highlighting the growing popularity of women’s college basketball.

Iowa’s standout player, Caitlin Clark, played a significant role in boosting the numbers. Her prop bets at BetMGM received the most tickets in the women’s tournament and ranked second overall between both the men’s and women’s competitions. The growth of women’s basketball was evident not only in the NCAA Tournament but also in regular-season games, which saw 2.5 times more betting action than the previous year.

The national championship game also made history for FanDuel, with Dawn Staley’s third championship becoming the most bet single event in women’s sports and the most bet game across all sports on that Sunday. The matchup saw a staggering 205 percent increase in bets compared to last year’s national title game.

Overall, the success of the South Carolina Gamecocks and the record-breaking betting numbers highlight the growing popularity and excitement surrounding women’s college basketball. As the sport continues to make history and break records, fans can expect even more thrilling moments in the seasons to come.
