Teasers are some of the most important bets placed in the game of online sports betting in football and basketball. The best is quite similar to the betting parlays where all the teams that are selected are required to win for the bettor placing the bet and if it happens, then only he wins the wager. It means if he loses in any of the single bet, then he would lose the entire game. Read More...

There is a selection committee that chooses the teams for the March Madness tournament. The same committee selects the teams for both the men's and women's tournaments. The members of this committee include conference commissioners and university athletic directors.

The committee announces the decision on television. Read More...
The term March Madness refers to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Men's and Women's Basketball Tournaments. The winner of this tournament is awarded the college basketball's biggest prize. The winners of these tournaments become the national champions of college basketball. Sixty-five teams participate in this tournament � all vying for the championship trophy. The concentrated hype of these teams, the agony of losing and going back home, the euphoria of winning to play another day and the last-second buzzer-beating baskets � this is what March Madness refers to.

The NCAA Men�s Division I Basketball Championship is a single elimination tournament held each spring featuring 65[1] college basketball teams in the United States.

You read now with your brackets in hand and a desire to win your office pool, or the ESPN challenge thingy - with millions of entrants vying for $10,000.

You want your March Madness slipper to fit. You seek office prominence, cube farm glory! But how? (Never mind why!)...Read More...
The first statistical trends that I look at in NCAA basketball are defensive. These include forced turnovers and points allowed. I also look at the team's ability to protect the ball (turnovers committed), three point shooting, field goal percentage, and their ability to put up points as evidenced by points per game. These categories are analyzed in home and away games from the current season. Ever wonder how to calculate your return on investment? What can you realistically expect at various winning percentages?

The Michigan men's basketball team played its most complete game of the season Tuesday night. It still wasn't enough to equal a much-needed win. Michigan lost a heartbreaker 64-61 to Wisconsin to fall to a morose 5-14 overall and 1-6 in the Big Ten. Back in December, my friend Tick said Michigan might manage just one or two Big Ten wins. I called him crazy. The Big Ten, after all, isn't the power conference it used to be. And Michigan plays bottom-dwellers Penn State and Northwestern twice.Read More...
