If you’re a basketball fan, a sports betting fan or both, you’re no doubt aware that one of the biggest sporting events in the country will be starting in just a few short weeks. The NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Tournament – otherwise known as March Madness – takes place for the 78th time this year, beginning with Sunday Selection on March 12th.
Once the 68 teams who have made the field for this year’s championships are revealed, basketball fans across the nation will begin to fill in their brackets. However, predicting the outcome of games at this year’s tournament could prove trickier than usual.
That’s because there isn’t a standout team going into March Madness 2017. The defense of favorites UCLA Bruins is far from the finished product, leaking like a sieve in recent losses to the Arizona Wildcats and Oregon Ducks. The Duke Blue Devils have stumbled through the season, marred by injuries and lack of form, and the Kentucky Wildcats are limited when it comes to three-point shooting and too reliant on their two freshman guards.

The Shot
Is there a more famous play in the history of the NCAA Tournament? Duke is down one with 2.1 seconds left in overtime against Kentucky and in need of a miracle to go to the 1992 Final Four, but a court-length inbound pass from Grant Hill finds Christian Laettner with his back to the basket at the top of the key, who then hits the incredible, turn-around, game-winning jump shot for Duke.

The NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament has come to Cleveland, OH and with that Infiniti has sponsored a Round by Round Brackets Coaches vs Cancer charity event. This is a great cause with thousands already participating. The goal is to raise $500,000 to fight cancer and if everyone gets involved, Infiniti can far exceed that number.
There really is nothing like the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament and today Bullz-Eye.com is at Quicken Loans Arena to watch the Ohio State vs George Mason and Marquette vs Syracuse match ups. As you can see from the photos in our gallery, the energy and excitement in the journey to make the Final Four makes any sports fan stand up! Good luck to all of the teams still in play for the big prize and thanks to Infiniti for playing a lead sponsorship role in the NCAA Final Four Tournament and their efforts in playing a major role in the ongoing battle to beat cancer!
As a side note, check out the photo with George Mason's Band Director. He might be the coolest dude in the Q!
