I faired very well last year for the tournament so I want to start a thread to track my picks. All of my picks will be on a side or the total. (i.e. I won't bet moneylines). So far I have Miss Valley St. +4.5 and Iona +2. Miss Valley game already started. Who cares it's still first half and I got my bet in prior to tipoff. 2012 Tournament 0-0. Tail me if you'd like. I made a lot of $$ money last year for March Madness, and I expect to do the same this year. Good luck ladies & gents.

Early picks for Thursday & Friday:
Georgetown -3.5
West Virginia PK
I know Belmont is the sexy pick to make the upset in the first round and possibly a sweet 16 bid, but they won't get it done. Georgetown is very big and will attempt to work the ball down low and get high percentage shots. They are also athletic enough to contain Belmont's fast-paced offense. Vegas is overreacting to Belmont's only loss to Duke. Georgetown rolls by 10.Comment -
Adding:
New Mexico -4
I've watched New Mexico several times this year, and they are a very dangerous tournament team. Drew Gordon averages a double double. They beat UNLV twice this year and are 3-1 SU against tournament teams. Lobos get the cover.Comment -
That Iona game was unreal. Hell of a 2nd half for BYU.
Tournament record 1-1 (50%)Comment -
UCONN/ISU under 137.5

Adding Syracuse under 44.5 points 2nd half at -125. I don't usually play team totals, but this one looks too good to pass up.Comment -

Went 4 for 5 in today's action. Added UNC -13.5. Didn't post it but I'm counting it. It's not like anyone else is reading this post anyways. But if you want to start tailing, be my guest. Overall this tournament I am 9-5 (64%). I haven't even looked at the lines for the round of 32, but I'll post some picks here before tipoff of the early games. Happy St. Patty's Day. Let's all make some greeeeen!Comment -
