Good afternoon bettors, it's Chris Bengel here. I hope you've recovered from one of the more brutal sports betting weekends that I can remember. We saw the top six teams in college basketball get upset and that doesn't exactly give anyone a great feeling with March Madness right around the corner.
It's no secret that anything can happen in March when it comes to the NCAA Tournament. However, this year really might be one where there's a record-setting amount of upsets. After all, we've seen the likes of Auburn, Baylor and Gonzaga occupy the No. 1 spot in the polls. While Gonzaga has spent the most time in the top spot, the Bulldogs are far from a sure thing to win it all.

It's always fun to fill out your March Madness brackets, but I'm literally considering tossing mine right in the trash or maybe not even submitting one. I just think we're going to see a lot of high seeds go down early on and this could be a year where a No. 4, 5, or 6 seed could win a national title. For many of the reasons I just mentioned, I'm staying away from college basketball tonight.
However, I've got some other picks that I feel very good about. Let's dive into the picks!
