Combined final score of the title game. No points — closest guess breaks ties.

Tiebreak

Typical range: 120–170 points

← Back

Pick the winner of every game. Each correct pick earns that round's points, and points double every round — so every round is worth the same 32 in total, and a perfect bracket scores 192.

Round	Per correct pick
First Round	1
Second Round	2
Sweet 16	4
Elite 8	8
Final Four	16
National Championship	32

A busted pick doesn't kill the games downstream of it — every game is scored on its own. Pick the champion right and the title game alone pays 32.
