The biggest highlight has to be entering a March Madness pool online or at work and winning the whole damn thing, bragging rights for one full year! Impress everyone with your NCAA basketball tournament knowledge. There is a bit of skill and a method to your madness to picking the one team out of 65 thats going to win it all.

Here are hopefully some tips that will help you out. Never pick the number one seeds to go to the Final 4. The last time the No# 1 seed that went to the final four was way back in 2001! March madness is random, it’s not like the NBA where the winning team is more predictable, a short tourney like this, you have to take a few risks.

If you do a little bit of research, planning and studying the dark horses, and pray a lot, then you may be on your way. Anything can happen during this wacky March madness tourney, why do you think they call it madness? in the first place. First throw the NCAA odds out the window as the No# 1 rated team never hardly wins it all, its more likely a number 4, 5 or 6th rated seeds coming out from nowhere that can snatch the title. If you are a serious sports fan, the NCAA March Madness is what it’s all about!
