Statistics from the tournament's past can give you the leading edge when you want to make a winning bet. In the 20 years since the NCAA set up the 64-team tourney in 1985, the first seeded team has never lost to the 16th seeded team in the first round. That makes a record of 52-0. Second seeded teams have also done well in the competition. They've won 95% of the time in the 20 years of March Madness. If you investigate the 8th versus 9th seed matchups, you will find that the 8th seed has won 58% of games. It's not madness to be informed on your March bet!

A good tip to remember when choosing a team to back is to consider the play of the guards. Experienced guards shoot free throws with a very high percentage of accuracy. Any coach will tell you that these throws can prove vitally important at the end of the game. In March Madness '05, North Carolina had one of the best guard tandems in the country. This worked to the Heel's advantage throughout the tournament and eventually helped the team to secure the 2005 title. March Madness '05 - what a competition!
