Each correct pick is worth a designated value depending upon the round. It goes as follows:
1st - 1 point
2nd - 2 points
3rd - 4 points
4th - 8 points
5th - 16 points
6th - 32 points
If you select an underdog to win and they do, you will receive bonus points. Below are the criteria. Any questions email me!
To get points for Underdog Scoring a player must correctly pick a team to win a certain game as an underdog AND that team must win the game as an underdog (regardless of who they play). Points are then awarded based on Seed Difference.
Below are examples in how the scoring excatly works:
Example:
Round 1: #4 Kansas vs #13 Pacific -- You select Pacific
Pacific wins; you recieve 10 points. 1 point for getting a pick correct in the first round and 9 points for the Seed difference (13-4 = 9)
Look at these examples to see how the underdog scoring plays out into the second round and beyond:
Round 1: #5 Wisconsin vs #12 SW Missouri St. -- John Doe picks SW Missouri
SW Missouri wins, John Doe would get points for underdog bonus.
Round 1: #4 Tennessee vs #13 Delaware -- John Doe picks Delaware,
Tennessee wins, John Doe gets no points
Round 2: Matchup is #12 SW Missouri St. vs #4 Tennessee
Person picked #12 SW Missouri St over #13 Delaware.
JOHN DOE IS TAKING NO UNDERDOG RISK IN THIS GAME. HE IS PICKING A HIGHER SEEDED TEAM ON HIS SHEET therefore even if SW Missouri St. beats Tennessee, John Doe will get no underdog bonus points.
