March Madness Pick X Pools

If you're looking for a new type of March Madness pool to run this year, a Pick X Pool for the NCAA Tournament is a fun format to try. Picking the best teams is a lot more challenging than it may seem. Pick too many high seeds and your point total will be too low. Pick too many Cinderella teams and they might blow your chances.

Pick X Pool Rules

  • The Pool Commissioner configures how many teams members pick.
  • Members pick any NCAA teams out of the field of 64. No other picks are made during the tournament.
  • Every time one of a member's teams wins, that member is awarded the number of points equal to the team's seed number.
  • The same NCAA teams can be picked by more than one member.
  • The winning team is the team with the most points at the end of the NCAA Tournament.
