"Seed 8" Format for March Madness

Pick 8 NCAA teams and get their seed value in points for each win. For example, a #8 seed gets you 8 points per win. If they win 2 games you get 16 points. If you pick a #1 seed and if they win 6 games (NCAA Champion), you would only get 6 points. The person with the most points at the end wins. Custom pick deadline. Options for how many teams to pick. You don't have to use 8.

GET STARTED

To get started, simply enter a name for your pool and click the Continue button. From there you will go to the Setup Wizard which will walk you through the steps for customizing your pool.
