NCAA Tournament: Picks for Round 1 (Thursday)

With the first four out of the way, it’s now time to get our picks in for the NCAA tournament.

By the way, MTC went 3-1 in the four First Four games so we’re looking to build upon that.

Since this is the first day, I’ll explain how this works.

Normally in the Picks and Props articles, we select certain games and props.

In the NCAA Tournament we will pick every game. That doesn’t mean that we would actually bet every game.

Keep that in mind.
