Top 5 March Madness Teams in 2012

Michigan Wolverines

The Michigan Wolverine win over Ohio State on Saturday conclusively proved that they are a team to be reckoned with. In fact, if they can garner a slice of the Big Ten regular season title and maybe win the Big Ten tournament they will have an undisputed shot at the No. 1 seed on Selection Sunday.

Florida State Seminoles

The Florida State Seminoles are just half a game back of North Carolina who currently leads the ACC teams. With an expected resume boosting win against Duke this Thursday, The Florida State Seminoles have the potential to be No. 2 seed in the tournament this year.

If Florida State can have another win over North Carolina in the ACC tournament, it would conclusively prove that their position is not based on luck but real talent and skill. Indeed, time and again Florida State Seminoles have proved themselves to be very dangerous team and will be more than match for any team they come up against.

Marquette Golden Eagles

Darius Johnson-Odom of Marquette is easily the star of the Marquette Golden Eagles. His amazing ability to beat the buzzer with a score is breathtaking.

With top scoring stars like Darius Johnson-Odom in their team, the Marquette Golden Eagles definitely have the ability to go places and we predict that Marquette Golden Eagles is very likely to come in second in the Big East conference.

Although Marquette Golden Eagles may not be in the same league as UConn or North Carolina, we believe a spot in the Elite Eight is a distinct possibility.

North Carolina Tar Heels

The North Carolina Tar Heels is definitely one of the most talented teams amongst the ACC teams. With stars such as John Henson, Kendall Marshall, Tyler Zeller and Harrison Barnes in the starting lineup, The North Carolina Tar Heels definitely have a shot at the No 1 seed in March. In fact, they clinch a victory over Duke on March 3rd and with it the ACC title, we believe they will have the clearest shot for the No. 1 seed in March.

Kendall Marshall may be the star of North Carolina Tar Heels but they do not depend on him alone. North Carolina has Barnes (18 points per game), Tyler Zeller (15.6) and John Henson (averaging 14 points per game). Each is a giant scorer so even if one of them has an off night or is blocked by the opposing team the other players are more than capable of putting points on the board on their own. We would be remiss in our selection if we fail to mention Reggie Bullock, James McAdoo and P.J. Hairston. Each is a star and North Carolina is lucky to have them in their team.

Without a shred of doubt, The North Carolina Tar Heels is one of the most talented and possibly the best college basketball team in the ACC.

Missouri Tigers

One loss does not break a team. True the Missouri Tigers lost to Kansas State last night, but it would be foolish to write them off and Saturday’s game against Kansas will definitely help them in their aspirations in the NCAA tournament.

What is undoubtedly strange is that, Missouri Tigers are out-manned, undersized, and some would argue, its players are not as talented as the other ACC teams, yet they continue to win. If their logic defying performance holds, Missouri Tigers could end up being the biggest NCAA title threat in March.

We hope our lineup will help you in placing your basketball bets in 2012 more accurately and more importantly, help you make loads of cash this March Madness.
