Experienced bettors will tell you that betting college
basketball is a cash cow if done right. The real money inside the sportsbook is
not the NFL or the NBA, it’s NCAA Men’s basketball. This sport is highly
predictable and highly lucrative but it’s also vast. There are 32 Division IA
Conferences around the country that feature 351 teams. Every one of these
basketball teams start out the same, at ground zero win an 0-0 record and every
team that wins it’s conference tournament in February and/or finishes with the
best record in the conference— that team is automatically in the NCAA
Tournament in March, better known as “March Madness”.

We have established how 32 teams get in the NCAA
Tournament, what about the other 36, how do they get in? Every year there are
68 teams that play in the NCAA Tournament and the first 32 get in by way of a conference
championship or by having the best record straight-up. The next 36 teams are
selected by a committee, that committee is chosen by the NCAA themselves. This
committee is made up of former players, coaches, politicians, sports writers,
and businessmen or women. The selection committee convenes on the Sunday in
March after the last regular season game has been played, this is called
“Selection Sunday” and this is when the 36 remaining teams are chosen and
invited to the NCAA Men’s Tournament.

Betting Tricks:
We have some practical
betting tips and advice, some of them are across the board and apply to
every sport and some of them are specific to college basketball. The key to
success when betting on any sport is to remember one thing; you have no control
over a game and no matter how much you think you have handicapped or prepared
yourself, you can still lose. At the end of the day, it’s called a gamble for a
reason!
1. Have
a budget and stick to it and by budget we mean specific to college basketball.
Know how much you can spend each week on the sport and under no circumstances
ever go over budget. Disciplined gamblers win money, undisciplined gamblers go
broke very quickly.
2. Betting
basketball is not 50/50, almost without exception-it’s not 50/50. Don’t ever
believe that a flip of a coin is just as lucky as who you pick against the
spread, this is a giant lie believed only by square bettors.
3. Focus
on a handful of conferences and never deviate throughout the season. Do not try
to bet every conference, you will drive yourself to the looney bin very quickly!
Remember, there are 351 teams that play in 32 conferences. How can you expect
to know each and every team? If you do deviate, you will be “flipping the
proverbial coin”. This is not a coin flip.
4. Play
props and play props often, such as alternate lines, reverse action, quarter
bets, half time bets and individual player props.
5. Play
future bets to win the NCAA Championship. Play several teams, do your homework
and find out who are the teams that have a real chance. Futures are lucrative
and can win you a huge sum of money at the end of the season.
6. Stay
away (for the most part) from Top 25 games. They are hard to call with any real
consistency. Look to Conferences such as the Big East, Conference USA, the WAC
and the Mountain West-- to name a few.
7. Find
a handful of teams that have started out of the gate playing well and follow
them, handicap them and keep them in your betting rotation all season long.
Teams such as Nevada and Gonzaga. Yes, these are Top 25 teams, we said stay
away from Top 25 games, not single teams. When you see a Top 25 playing a
non-Top 25 you most likely have betting value.
