Can some math wiz tell us how many possible different brackets there are?

I only did one bracket in about five minutes and I was 10/12 today. Very happy and leading my work pool.

I mean, someone could fill out enough brackets to have every possible combination ...

2^63 = 9.2 quintillion (that's why the OP went with that title)

You could just fill out a bracket for every possible outcome....

Your guess sucks. I'd work on my reading comprehension before trying to master sarcasm.

this is a little misleading, because the chances of picking correctly between a 1v16 seed are a little higher than picking the correct winner of a 8v9.
I'm assuming they are using a 50/50 type odds for each game.

This is tigerdroppings.com
In a month we will have reports of at least 5 people claiming they had a perfect bracket.

Only bracket I filled out was one I picked Harvard. I picked one bracket on CBS and that's it. Been real tied up with work so didn't fill out multiples
