Clarification

OB Ben Poole made a good point. The seed is multiplied by the round the team you picked is going into.

If you pick 8 seed Ohio St. to beat 9 seed Siena in the first round the total points you get if Ohio St. wins is 16.

8 (seed) x 2 (round they move into) = 16 points.

Also, when you fill out the bracket, it will tell you how many points you are elgible to receive if you pick everything perfectly.

I hope this clears up any confusion.

A better NCAA Bracket than you are already in

OBs

I have come up with a new way of "wagering" on the NCAA tournament. Here are the basics:

* You pick every round and team like you normally do

* Points for each pick are determined by multiplying the round by the seed. For example - if you pick Ohio State beats Siena you get 16 points = 8 (seed) x 2 (round).

* The champion's seed is multiplied by 10 as opposed to 7

* Tie-breaker is the total # of points in the championship game

* Entry is $20 with a max of two entries.

* Payment is due next Monday

* Entries are due by 9 on Thursday

* The goal of the new system is to reward underdog picks

If you want to be part of the revolution, please send me an email (rtaylor@gmail.com) and I will send you a spreadsheet.
