It's the most wonderful (betting) time of the year!

The NCAA tournament is one of three rare (and hypocritical) times of the year when the mainstream media embraces sports betting and all its sexy angles — with the others being Super Bowl and the Kentucky Derby. That means tens of millions of people who never filled out a bracket (yes, that’s a form of gambling) or placed a wager on a game before will be breaking the betting seal this March.

Use our March Madness Betting Bible to make all the best bets during this year's tournament!

BOOK I: Momentum, Skeds, and Travel

Momentum

If you’re filling out your office pool bracket or handicapping the Round of 64 matchups, the first thing you need to consider before looking at anything is current form. Ask any oddsmaker and they’ll tell you that how a team is playing right now makes up the majority of a spread.


Teams that finished the season strong could have finally figured out their rotation or fixed issues that plagued their games all year. And some coaches, like North Carolina’s Roy Williams or Michigan State’s Tom Izzo, are all about getting their teams to peak at the right time – just before the postseason – so any losses taken earlier in the year should be weighed a little lighter.
