Critical Figures to Look Out For
In this article, you will learn how volatile the NCAA championship is and how you can minimize risk by looking for value games and checking for teams’ ATS records.
With all of the captivating events that take place in NCAA championship basketball year after year, it is easy to see why it is one of the biggest collegiate events of the year. With Cinderella stories and Selection Sunday where 65 championship teams are announced, March Madness is not restricted to students and alumni. Interest in the championship is also had by money ready office pools and Las Vegas parlors with their proverbial championship brackets.
 Basketball lines in the NCAA could go awry at any given moment. The NCAA championship has proven time and time again that any team could win. #16 seeds have beaten #1 seeds in the past to a shocking clip, with a 13th seed beating no. 1 seeds more than 30 times in the past 20 years. This example is best revealed with Winthrop’s first round win over top-seed Duke this past 2007 championship and UCLA’s rapid ascension into the ranks despite its lower seed status. With these upsets, jotting down a perfect bracket is impossible. No wonder ESPN awards $1 million to whomever comes up with a 100% bracket. However, analyzing teams could get you a better shot of making money with a straight bet. Research must always precede laying money down on a bet.
 One thing to look for with basketball lines NCAA are off spreads. There should be “value” games where the favorite is only favored by no more than 3 points. If you conduct research and discover a leading rebounder has recovered from an injury on the underdog team, this could be a great value – especially if the point spread moves in favor of the underdog. Another thing to look for is how well championship teams have covered the spread during the regular season. You could have a top-tier team like Duke blowing past opponents left and right but cover the point spread less than often. Remember, the object of the game is to win the spread, not guess who will win the game. All in all, beating basketball lines NCAA takes a little legwork that is easier to conquer with the right strategies.
