The NCAA tournament selections have been made. Need some help picking your brackets? First, you should read today's Tom Hoffarth column in sports.

But if that's not enough, here are some Web resources:

BracketScience.com: This site has head-to-head comparisons, historic stats, and strategies that have worked from years past.

10 Tips for Powerful Bracket Predictions: From Teamrankings.com, tells you the factors you need to consider and why some logic doesn't work.

Sportsline.com: Has a list of eight tried-and-true methods for picking a better bracket. We especially like #2:

We here at CBSSports.com always make fun of that person.

(We make fun of that guy on the newsdesk, too.)
