Public and Private Leagues
Prior to the first round of the conference tournaments, you will fill out your bracket in its entirety. Once the first game of the first tournament starts your bracket is locked for the remainder of the College Football Tournament Bracket Challenge. The Administrator (The Second Season) will update point totals at the end of each tournament game.
If your bracket(s) is not submitted once the deadline passes, you are ineligible to play.
*Note these settings can be customized by your league commissioner.
A team will accumulate points based on the round in which each correctly guessed team has won. The chart below lists the point values.
Default Scoring | |
---|---|
Statistic | Points Earned |
Round 1 Correct Pick | 1 Points (x/+ seed bonus) |
Quarterfinals Correct Pick | 2 Points (x/+ seed bonus) |
Semifinals Correct Pick | 4 Points (x/+ seed bonus) |
Finals Correct Pick | 8 Points (x/+ seed bonus) |
Seed bonuses are seed-based, rewarding lower ranked teams moving on in the tournament. Your commissioner can choose to either use multiply or add the bonus for each win.
If the #4 seed team wins their first round matchup, they earn 1 point x 4 (their seed) to equal 4 points. If the #1 seed wins their first round matchup they earn 1 point x 1 (again, their seed) to equal 1 point. Same system holds true throughout the playoffs.
If the #4 seed team wins their first round matchup, they earn 1 point + 4 (their seed) to equal 5 points. If the #1 seed wins their second round matchup they earn 2 points (round weight) + 1 (again, their seed) to equal 3 points. Same system holds true throughout the playoffs.
