The thrill of March Madness is upon us once again, and my excitement knows no bounds. For the past three years, I’ve embarked on the challenging journey of picking every game against the spread in the tournament. The result? A win rate just shy of 70%. It’s not just a game of chance; it’s a meticulous process of research and analysis. I dive deep into the analytics, scrutinize the season’s trends, and pay close attention to the teams that have been on fire lately.
But here’s the secret sauce to my college basketball success: I’m a big trend guy. Understanding and leveraging trends have been instrumental in my strategy. And now, it’s time to share the fruits of my labor. Tune in to mondaynightrants.com, where I’ll be revealing my picks for this year’s tournament.
Gear up, fellow basketball enthusiasts. May the odds be ever in your favor!
