NCAA Contest for Favorite Tight

The contest for the favorite is tense when it comes to the match-up between the Michigan State Spartans and the University of North Carolina Tar Heels, but sportsbook.com players affirmed their loyalty.

68% of New York state players vote for the Tar Heels, 51 % of Illinois players choosed UNC, and, perhaps surprisingly, only 53 % of players from North Carolina are backing the home state team.

Texas and Pennsylvania are not in the Tar Heels camp. By a small margin, the two states want to see the 5th seed Spartans in the final by 53% and 52% respectively.

The Marketing Director for Sportsbook.com Mr. Alex Czajkowski said "Fans in New York, Virginia and DC heavily favor the Tar Heels and this is not surprisingly, but fans in Carolina, Texas and Pennsylvania are very much split on this game, as maybe they are betting with their heads, rather than their hearts"
