The NCAA Tournament is one of the most wagered on sporting events on the planet, with billions of dollars changing hands over the annual three-week extravaganza. As such, there are a variety of NCAA Tournament Betting Systems that professionals use to beat the books and the general betting public this time of the year.
Here are five NCAA Tournament betting systems from Doc’s Sports handicappers that can help you find some solid value and make some winning wagers:
Raphael Esparza: "In seven of the past eight years two teams in the Final Four have come from the same conference. Those conferences are the ones that are the most competitive and have placed the most teams in the tournament – the Big East, Big 10, Big 12, and ACC. The major conferences usually do well in general so if you can grab a good early round spread or futures number when the odds are first posted on top teams from these conferences then grab it. The public will move the numbers on the top conference teams."
Doc's Sports: “Bet on teams that defend the 3-point line well. The game has changed a great deal over the last decade with the 3-point shot becoming the shot most teams get now. Teams only need to make 33 percent of 3-point shots to be the equivalent of making 50 percent of 2-point shots. Teams that defend and challenge their opponents’ 3-point shots the best are usually teams you want to play on a consistent basis.”
Indian Cowboy: “I like betting ‘under' with high quality defensive teams as the tournament progresses. I believe most of the public loves the 'over' with sexy, big-name schools. But they forget the fact these teams have very strong defenses as well. I would advise the Common Joe to take a look at well known schools not only for their offensive efficiency but also to respect the fact these schools have high quality defenses that are able to stifle offenses more than people realize.”
Robert Ferringo “You always want to look at betting on any team that is receiving less than 27 percent of the betting action in any game. There are three instances where this can be especially potent. The first is if the spread starts moving away from the team that the public is betting on; that’s a textbook reverse line movement. The second is if the public is all over a favorite of between 11.0 and 14.0 points in the first two rounds. That line range is an indicator. The third is when the public is piling on a team in a game with a spread of 2.0 or less. Individual situations obviously vary, but in those situations the long-term ATS numbers bear out that betting against the public under those circumstances is the way to go.”
Allen Eastman: “The public loves to bet on the underdogs. Over the years that has driven down the spreads on games between high seeds. But where bettors can really take advantage of the public’s obsession is in the later rounds. Sharp bettors should look to bet against double-digit seeds that advance to the second round and the Sweet 16. These small mid-major teams can be good enough to win one or maybe even two games. But the talent of the top teams win out. And when these mid-major teams normally lose in later rounds they tend to get blown out.”
