When do the mini-tournaments start? Or have they already begun for the smaller conferences?

The conference tournaments are sometimes considered part of the "madness"...a lot of those are pretty darn exciting too. Most of those are the week of 3/5-11

Why don't people just google for the info. They would probably get the info faster than waiting for someone to reply.

Some of the smaller conferences should be starting around now. I'll check the scheds. I have approaches for those a bit different that regular cbb 'capping techniques

I think the Big South, Horizon, and OVC are the first to start...maybe on 2/28 this season? I'll look into it too.

Right on Calvin. Thanks. I recall some years when the conf tourneys began around the 23rd or 24th, even earlier.

Gotta go, gotta get ready!

I think the entire time is awesome. Its the time of year if you live in cold climates where things start to heat up and the weather gets a little nicer, then all of these conference tourneys start which are pretty exciting in their own right, then the first 2 days of the tournament which at least to me is the best part I just love the entire thing


By the way, anyone see Cold pizza yesterday when Ship Bayless tried to make some extremely weak argument that the WGC match play thing is more entertaining than march madness. yeah, sure. I bet if tiger was asked the same question, he'd probably go with march madness.

This and the beginning of football season are the best times.

Agree that the first round of the NCAA is the best. And, for me, the best time to make $$$.

Using an idea proposed by an rx columnist a few years ago (when rx had solid columnists, I think borrowed from the "vegas" site, not the crew they have now) I went 9-2 ATS in the first round last year. And did just as good the prior year.

The NCAA Tournament is the biggest betting event of the year. Even more than the SuperBowl. Of course,it is a lot of games, 65 I think.
