How it Works
Don’t worry, just sign up and we’ll take care of the rest.
Every person gets FOUR seeds.
One from the 1-4 Seeds
One from the 5-8 Seeds
Two from the 9-16 Seeds.
Each team will be in a different region, so the only chance you have to knock yourself out is in the Final Four.
No trading seeds. All seeds are final. You’ll find out your teams once they announce the field.
You win money based on when your teams lose. See the Payouts below. All payments must be made BEFORE the Selection Show, Sunday, March 17th. Once your payment is received, your spot is locked.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I guaranteed to win any money?
No. Unless you’ve managed to rig the NCAA Tournament, in which case, we should talk.
Do the PubGuys keep any of the money?
Absolutely not. 100% of the entry fees are paid out to the winners.
What if none of my teams make it to the Sweet 16?
Sadly, this happens. We can’t control the games, so hopefully you’ll have better luck next year.
When is the drawing?
In previous years the drawing took place in person. Recently, we’ve turned digital and now randomize the drawing using tools found on the internet.
The drawing will be completed before the Selection Show on Sunday, March 17th.
When will I get paid? And how?
All payouts will be distributed AFTER the conclusion of the National Championship game. They will be distributed using the same method of payment as the entry fee.
