Create and track your March Madness bracket

The countdown to tip-off is on, which means it’s time to create your March Madness bracket. Who’s going to make it to the Final Four? Will there be any upsets? And which team will take home all the glory? Predict the champions, plus invite friends and interact with other fans. And come back to check out more great content all throughout the tournament.

Create your bracket after Selection Sunday on March 16. Most brackets are due at the tip-off of the first round game (March 20th for men's and March 21st for women's), but check the rules of your bracket platform to confirm. As the tournament plays out, use your bracket app to stay on top of your progress.

Look at how teams have been playing leading up to the tournament. Are they on a winning streak? Have they had any key injuries? But don't just pick all the higher seeds. Upsets happen, and picking a few correctly can give you an edge. Ultimately, it's a tournament known for its unpredictability. Sometimes, the best approach is to go with your gut feeling.
