How Bracket 10 Works

Simple to pick, thrilling to follow through April.

01 / LINEUP

Pick 10 Teams

Select one team from each seed line (#1 through #10). No complex game-by-game bracket to bust on day one.

02 / SURVIVAL

Score on Every Win

Every time one of your 10 picks wins a game, you earn points. Points multiply nearly 2x with each round reached.

03 / VICTORY

Most Points Takes It

Deep tournament runs dominate. One team in the Final Four pays more than a dozen opening-round wins combined.

Round-by-Round Scoring

Minus One Formula

Points are based solely on the round won. Seed number never limits your scoring.

Tournament Round Win Points Scale Cumulative
First Round +2
2 pts
Second Round +3
5 pts
Sweet 16 +5
10 pts
Elite 8 +9
19 pts
Final Four +17
36 pts
Championship +33
69 pts

First Four play-in games award 0 points. Cumulative shows total points earned by a single team advancing through that round.

Important Rules

Two Rules to Remember

Simple rules that make pick strategy interesting.

Flexibility

Trade Down, Never Up

You can skip any seed line and draft a second, lower-seeded team instead — for example, pass on your 3-seed to take an extra 5-seed.

Automatic Coverage

Play-In Game Protection

Picked a team playing in the Tuesday/Wednesday First Four play-in games and they lose? You automatically inherit the winner at no penalty!
