March Madness begins to unfold as sports bettors make their picks for the 2007-2008 NCAA College Basketball Tournament.

At this early stage, it's hard to figure out which college basketball team will come out on top in the NCAA tournament. Sports bettors are making their picks by staying focused on the strongest teams as the season begins to unfold. There are a few teams that seem to be standing out among the rest. They played with amazing performance last year and they are coming around in full swing again this season. Even though some key players were lost, their confidence remains strong and their performance on the court hasn't wavered.

The UCLA Bruins placed first last year. They are also expected to be equally as impressive this season. Although they lost some key players, UCLA is will still most likely come out ahead. They gained a strong player with Kevin Love. So far, experts say that UCLA is the best pick this season.

The Memphis Tigers have been performing extremely well so far. They came in 2nd last season and they are doing just as well this year. As with the Bruins, they have soffered the loss of some key players. However, they have gained some strength with new players such as Joey Dorsey and Derrick Rose. Dorsey won Defensive Player of the Year from Conference USA. Memphis definitely seems to be a smart pick this year.

The North Carolina Tar Heels seem to be another solid team this year, even though they lost Brandan Wright who left for the NBA this year. However, the team has gained William Graves who is a strong new player and has done very well so far. Graves is very large so he'll probably be playing under the basket in many games. North Carolina plays a great running game but they've been known to stay away from the 3 point shots in previous games. It's uncertain if this will become their deficit or if their fast under the basket strategy work well for them.

The Kansas Jayhawks, only lost one player to the NBA this season. They are maintaining their style that brought them success last season. They lost Julian Wright to the NBA but Darrell Arthur will be filling in for him. Last season, Arthur averaged about 10 points and 19 minutes per game and has a lot more to offer the team this year. It is probably that 2 of their other players will go to the NBA next year.
