The Second Wave: How We Adjust & Dominate Day 2
March Madness waits for no one, and neither do we. Below, you’ll find our official Friday picks—shared early, updated often, and never changed.
🔹 What You See Is What You Get: Once a pick is posted, it’s locked in. We don’t believe in second-guessing or chasing steam—our analysis is done before we hit submit.
🔹 Real-Time Updates: As we finalize plays, we’ll be adding them here throughout the day. Keep checking back for the latest additions.
🔹 The BrownBagBets Approach: If you’re new here, understand this—we bet volume, we bet intelligently, and we bet for the month, not just the day. Every wager is calculated, backed by indicators, and designed to work within our long-term bankroll strategy.

📊 Thursday Recap:
We went 4-7 yesterday across all our official plays. No excuses, no panic—that’s how variance works in volume betting.
No big deal. This is why we manage bankrolls with precision and never chase. One day doesn’t define the month.
We’re back at it today with Friday’s slate—focused, strategic, and fully aligned with our process. Picks are below and being updated throughout the day.
