How it works

Pick a champion in each of the 12 brackets. One team can only be picked once.
Every playoff win by one of your teams is 1 point. A state title is 10 more.
Standings update after every playoff week. The tiebreaker settles ties at the end.

Free to play, nothing to buy, no prizes except bragging rights and your name at the top. Independent fan contest, not affiliated with the UIL.
