March Madness Betting Surprise Performers at Sports Gambling

March Madness betting is not about the straight up won/loss record of a team, remember, it’s about beating the March Madness odds.

March Madness betting value can come from both the ‘haves’ or the ‘have nots’, it’s just a matter of detecting who has the potential to beat the March Madness odds. March Madness betting in 2009 will offer plenty of teams that have a proven record of success that can be carried on against the March Madness odds.

The Ole Miss Rebels could be one of those teams that end up with better than expected March Madness betting success. Ole Miss was 16-9 against the spread while being competitive in the southeastern conference.

Keep in mind that last year the Georgia Bulldogs, with far lesser March Madness betting credentials, shocked everyone and won the SEC tournament to get an invite to the “Big Dance”. Ole Miss could be such a March Madness betting commodity and would look to be a great value in the SEC tourney, the NIT or even the NCAA itself.

Texas A&M has become something of a March Madness betting regular as of late and despite having their share of ups and downs this year, the Aggies have begun to assert themselves and appear to be a team that can be a good value against the March Madness odds.

A&M was 22-8 straight up and 14-8 against the spread and has that March Madness betting experience that can be crucial for success. The Wyoming Cowboys do not have much of a basketball or March Madness betting reputation and that is exactly what could make them potentially valuable in March Madness betting action for 2009.

Wyoming was 18-11 straight up and 14-8 against the spread, demonstrating the type of surprise value that a team must have for success in March Madness betting against better known teams. North Carolina State operates as a “little brother” in the atlantic coast conference but has a history of March Madness success.

NC State has been the classic “sleeper” team this year with a record of 14-8 against the spread and is the type of team that can get overlooked all the way to the payoff window!
