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.
