About the 64-Team Single Elimination Format

A 64-team single elimination bracket has 6 rounds and 63 total matches. Every team except the champion loses exactly once — that's the single-elimination invariant.

Round 1 is the Round of 64 — 32 matches. Then Round of 32, Sweet Sixteen, Elite Eight, Final Four, Championship. This is the structure of the NCAA Tournament main bracket.

If your field isn't exactly 64 teams, fill some slots with "BYE" — whichever team is matched against a BYE automatically advances.

Seeding

Standard seeding pairs the highest seed with the lowest, working inward. Enter teams in bracket seed order (1, opposite-end, etc.) for proper cross-bracket placement. Seeds 1 and 2 end up on opposite halves, meeting only in the final if both advance.
