March Madness Bracket Guidelines to Follow

2016/7/27 15:40:30

March - It is a crazy time of year all-around the US. And not only college students embrace this insanity whole-heartedly but the whole America. March madness or the NCAA mens basketball championship is indeed already an American tradition and nothing can bet the excitement of this. March Madness is also the biggest sporting event of the month and one of the most heavily bet events each year. If you're planning on wagering on March Madness or getting ready to fill up your March madness bracket, you may want to consider a few important facts when choosing your brackets or making a team-on-team wager. Whether you're considering the first round or focused on the Sweet Sixteen, here are a few guidelines to help you make productive wagers.

Does Rank 1 Always Win? :

In the last 20 years, the team nationally ranked number one going into the tournament has won it only three times. Let's face it, most teams competing in March Madness Bracket are pretty good and when you come down to it, what's the difference between the seventh and first ranked team? Not a whole lot. This is especially true in a sport where during the regular season there have been virtually no head-to-head match-ups between initial tournament participants. An additional fly in this year's ointment are the numerous conference changes that various teams have initiated, with more than a half-dozen perennial March Madness contenders switching leagues.

Some Things Won't Change:

Teams that play well on the road tend to do well in the March Madness frenzy, where almost every team, except for the top seeds, play away from comfortable, familiar surroundings. So, if a team has been a road warrior all season, they will probably continue to be that same animal in March and possibly into April.

Trust the Guides and Reports:

If you're serious about wagering, you'll want to read at least one or more of the many in-depth reports available through various media-magazines, newspapers, and the Web. A good report will include an analysis of the team, especially the point guard and the interior players, road and home record, recent performance, playing style, turnover ratio, penchant for committing fouls, injuries, tournament history, bench, and coaching.

Final Four – Final Reminder:

Often people make gut choices rather than analyzing a team's performance, reading some expert analysis, and considering match-ups and trends. If you really want to go deep into the tournament, then do your homework. It can payoff, taking you to the National Championship by insuring that you make sane picks without bending to the pressures of March Madness.
