Betting NCAA Basketball Lines

If you want to be successful in betting NCAA basketball lines, you need to look at more than just team records. This is particularly true when betting NCAA basketball lines during March Madness. When tournament time rolls around much of what the teams did during the regular season may be irrelevant. For example, a team from a minor conference may have been the odds on favorite during the regular season in most of its games, but enters the tournament as an underdog against a powerful opponent. This means you will want to carefully examine how the team did during the season when it was not the favorite.

On the other hand, when betting NCAA basketball lines it is important to look at the record each teams has against the spread (ATS). A powerful team may be highly favored in a tournament game, but has it been consistent in beating the point spread in similar situations during the regular season? If it hasnt, you may want to reconsider betting on the team, or at least limit the amount you bet. After all, betting NCAA basketball lines is all about winning your bets, so you want to always consider all of the factors.

Another thing to consider when betting NCAA basketball lines is how a team does when it has home court advantage. Does it beat the spread more often at home than on the road, or is it the other way around? This may even come into play during tournament time when most games are played on neutral courts. If a Texas team is in the final four and it is being played in San Antonio then there is essentially a home court advantage. So know all of the facts and bet to win.
