2006 NCAA Basketball Tournament Brackets & Predictions
June 5, 2008
If you want to win your office pool then get help from Info Plays when filling out your 2006 NCAA tournament brackets. Our handicappers have picked at least 3 out of 4 final four teams the past 5 years and have won numerous clients their office pools. Early round upsets, sweet 16 teams, and then picking the final four and national champion, we have excelled at these 4 major aspects of the NCAA tournament brackets and that is why we continue to win our clients their pools. There are a number of key system moves that we use to fill out brackets. The people who don’t believe that there are systems in the NCAA tournament are probably the same ones who make sure they always take a 12 seed over a 5 seed when filling out the brackets. While we don’t just blindly pick a seed number over another one, we do like matching up previous years performances by conferences and teams in particular. Experience also plays a role as does team depth. These two factors come into effect a little more often on the second tournament day of each week due to the short turnaround time. Experienced teams know how to pick their spots to exert their energy, while of course deep teams don’t get worn down as easily due to their interchangeable parts.
March Madness Betting
Even though large pools like the one at ESPN can win you a lot of money, the key to a successful tournament run is winning with march madness betting. There are a lot of games in which the odds makers give us some value and we take advantage of each and every one of them. That is why you need to check out this site to see what we have to offer before you do any gambling this spring. A lot of novices get involved in what has become the most bet on sports activity of the year. The three weeks in March that encompass the tournament draw more betting action than even the Super Bowl does now. It has become a cultural phenomenon that costs employers millions of dollars in lost work time while workers gather by the water cooler talking about their brackets and checking the scores online. In 2006, teams like UCLA and Florida basically blew out their competition in meeting for the title game. Both of these teams were relatively inexperienced with a lot of leadership from sophomore classes, but both were coached by solid leaders who have had experience in the NCAA tournament in years past. Smart sports bettors rode both of these teams all the way through because they were continually being under-valued. Duke and Connecticut both had holes that other teams were finally able to exploit. All year long our philosophy on Duke was that they could be beat by a team that held Reddick to a rough shooting day and got Sheldon Williams into a decent amount of foul trouble. That is exactly what happened against LSU and that is why the Tigers made it to the Final Four and not the Blue Devils.
