March 27 - The NCAA Tournament lived up to its reputation for "March Madness" over the weekend as all four betting favorites were beaten by underdog schools. Every one of the Elite Eight games saw lower-seeded schools triumph, both straight up and against the spread.
Undoubtedly the biggest upset of the entire tournament was the win for George Mason, an #11 seed, over UConn, a #1 seed. George Mason were 8-point underdogs, and only a few shrewed sports handicappers gave them a chance, but they played brilliantly to beat the Huskies in OT.
On Saturday, UCLA beat Memphis, another number 1 seed, while Texas fell to LSU in another OT game. In the last game of the Elite Eight bracket, Florida were far too physical for Villanova, as the last remaining top seed exited the NCAA Tournament.
Online sportsbooks must have done very well with these results, as most casual sports bettors like to take the favorites in these situations. Expert college basketball handicappers like MasterBets, who sell picks at Mycapper.com, have enjoyed an incredible amount of success throughout March Madness for 2006 by picking a number of underdogs. This contrarian approach has brought home the cash!
It's not too late to make money betting on college basketball games. The Final Four will take place this coming Saturday, and Final Four picks and predictions, including a free final four pick will be available at Mycapper.com.
