It's that time of year again, March Madness has finally returned. One of the most exciting aspects is this week leading up to the tip-off of the games when you have to fill out your bracket. If you're like me, you will stress over every little decision. If you aren't like me, you will trust my advice and use this article to build your brackets. I will be doing a series on filling out your bracket for small, medium, and large pools.
Here, I will be offering advice on filling out a bracket for small pools. These are pools from 1-50 that mostly are with friends or colleagues. Keep in mind, there are over trillions of different variations in how the dominoes can fall in this tournament. You really don't have to be all too different with such a small pool simply because of how many different games you have to pick, and the inevitability that you will be different in more ways than one with your bracket selections.
Simply put, my best piece of advice is to not overthink the small pool brackets. Go with your gut or whatever strategy you abide by. My second piece of advice is to not get cute with your champion selection.
