Teams to bet on for March Madness 09
Since we are less than a month away from March, it’s only fitting to find out which teams are ruling college hoops right now.
Why? Well, in case you didn’t know, the month of March only means one thing to college basketball, the March Madness bracket tournament and since the 2008-09 NCAA college basketball season is nearing it’s own version of the playoffs, it’s about time for you to have an idea on which team to bet on.
And as far as the No.1 spot is concerned, the Connecticut Huskies still own the top spot. The Huskies beat the Louisville Cardinals and the Michigan Wolverines last week to earn the title ‘’top dawg.’’ These guys certainly look good heading towards March.
The Oklahoma Sooners and the North Carolina Tar Heels hold second and third place respectively. The Sooners got three first-place votes while the Tar Heels were No.1 on two ballots.
The run for No.1 started when Pittsburgh finished its two-week stint on top. Wake Forest and Duke each were up there for a week before Connecticut moved in. The changes in the Top 25 started following a week that saw 14 teams, six in the top 10, lose at least one game.
Pittsburgh jumped from sixth to No.4, while Louisville remained fifth after rebounding from a home the loss to Connecticut with a road win over St. John’s.
The Duke Blue Devils, which lost by 27 points to Clemson then beat Miami in overtime, dropped from fourth to sixth. Wake Forest, which lost by 27 points to Miami before snapping a two-game losing streak with a win over Boston College, held seventh place.
The Memphis Tigers, who beat Gonzaga in a matchup of ranked teams, moved from 14th to eighth, while Michigan State moved from 13th to No.9. Marquette, which fell to South Florida for its first Big East loss, dropped two spots to 10th.
The UCLA Bruins were at No.11, followed by Clemson, Villanova, Xavier, Butler, Kansas, Missouri, Arizona State, Gonzaga and Purdue.
We still have no idea which team to bet on.
