March Madness Betting Potential Overlays at Sports Gambling
March Madness betting fans tend to look only at the regular season straight up record of teams when betting the March Madness odds. March Madness betting success comes with understanding that many teams with great records are terrible values against the March Madness odds.
The sooner that a gambler understands that, and also that often the best known powerhouse teams are the worst values on the March Madness betting board, the better his results will be. A great March Madness betting example of this phenomenon comes from the LSU Tigers of the southeastern conference.
LSU is likely to get a lot of March Madness betting “love” from the masses due to their straight up record of 25-5 and yet their record against the board was a far worse 12-10. This is a classic March Madness betting example of a team that is clearly overpriced on a regular basis. You will see countless similar teams posted on the March Madness odds.
The Oklahoma Sooners will be another March Madness betting team that shares this problem with LSU. Oklahoma stood at 26-4 straight up and was near the top of the national rankings, all of which drew far too much public attention and led to a devaluation that resulted in a record of 13-11-1 against the spread.
A team like Oklahoma is exactly what the March Madness betting public is attracted to which is why it is a team that you might want to avoid. Clemson was a strong 23-6 straight up in the always tough atlantic coast conference, which makes them a March Madness betting “target” with the public and the odds makers.
The Tigers mark of 12-11-1 against the spread shows that they may not carry much March Madness betting value. Look first towards a team’s record against the board BEFORE you look at what the rest of the public does. You will often be surprised at what you find and the results that follow!
