How to make March Madness bracket predictions

You don't need to be a bracketologist to fill in a March Madness bracket against your friends, family, and coworkers, as even the most experienced college basketball experts have never submitted a perfect bracket. But these tips can help you put forth your best shot on the road to glory.

  • Research teams: Start by familiarizing yourself with the teams participating in the tournament. Look into their regular-season performance, key players, playing styles, and recent form. Pay attention to factors like strength of schedule, conference performance, and any notable wins or losses.
  • Study the bracket: Examine the tournament bracket carefully to understand the matchups and potential paths each team could take. Consider factors like seeding, potential upsets, and historical trends when evaluating matchups.
  • Analyze statistics: Dive into team and player statistics to gain insights into their strengths and weaknesses. Look at metrics like scoring offense and defense, rebounding, three-point shooting, and turnover margin to assess each team's capabilities.
  • Consider matchups: Evaluate individual matchups within each game to determine how teams might fare against each other. Look for mismatches in playing styles, size, and skill sets that could impact the outcome.
  • Factor in intangibles: Consider intangible factors like coaching experience, tournament experience, injuries, and momentum when making predictions. These factors can often play a significant role in determining game outcomes.
  • Trust your instincts: While data and analysis are essential, don't overlook your gut feelings and instincts when making bracket predictions. March Madness is known for its unpredictability, and sometimes, a hunch or gut feeling can lead to successful predictions.
  • Fill out your bracket: Once you've done your research and analysis, fill out your bracket accordingly, making picks for each matchup based on your predictions. Consider both favorites and potential upsets when filling out your bracket to maximize your chances of success.
  • Stay flexible: Remember that March Madness is inherently unpredictable, and upsets are bound to happen. Stay flexible and be prepared to adjust your predictions as the tournament progresses based on game results and developments.
