2011 NCAA Basketball March Madness

2011 college basketball betting is finally here! NCAA Basketball March Madness is the popular term for the annual NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship, which is held each March and early April. A selection committee chooses 68 teams, including four play-in games, and announce the teams on Selection Sunday. Many people in the United States enjoy wagering on NCAA Basketball March Madness. Part of the reason it's called March Madness is because of the frenzy the games create among fans and gamblers alike. NCAA Basketball March Madness is one of the most popular championships for sports wagering across the United States. Thousands of people involve themselves in this all-American past time.

NCAA Basketball March Madness started in 1939 when HV Porter, an official with the Illinois High School Association used the term 'March Madness' when writing about the High School basketball championships. In the 80s, the NCAA began using the term March Madness to describe its championship tournament. The United States courts decided that the term March Madness could not be exclusive to either organization, so today both the IHSA and NCAA license the term for their basketball tournaments.
