March Madness Tip #1: Remember "Cinderellas" - There is always a team, sometimes even several teams, that ranked very low in the tournament, yet succeed in knocking off a big team in one of the first few rounds. For example, during the 2005 NCAA tournament #14 Bucknell knocked off #3 ranked Kansas in the very first round. Kansas, who had been to back-to-back Final Four betting match-ups in 2002 and 2003 and who was ranked pretty highly much of the season among the top 25 teams, did not even get a chance to make it to the second round. There were probably a majority of bracket holders who had Kansas making it at least to the Sweet 16 betting odds or Elite 8 betting odds, as well as those that has Kansas in their Final Four picks. It is examples such as this which make it so important that those who are picking wins for the March Madness games carefully analyze each team, no matter how much of an uneven match-up it may seem to be. Some teams just get lucky and maybe no one can predict some of these Cinderella stories, but one must still take any and all factors into consideration before laying down any money.



March Madness Tip #2 - If in doubt, seek an expert opinion - If you feel like you just can't decide between two teams or if you feel like you do not know enough about the teams to make a good pick, then you can always seek an expert opinion. You can find these anywhere for free - on ESPN, on the Sports Page of your local paper, or on the radio. These guys know their stuff and, if they make a pick, you can be assured that it is an educated one. It may not always be right (I'm sure many of them picked Kansas over Bucknell), but it will be a pick that has been analyzed and well thought out.
