When, I mean if I have a perfect bracket, I'll give 25% of my winnings to the next best bracket entry.

If no one has a perfect bracket, I'll give $25 to the person who does have the best one (if by some chance it's not me!). If there's a tie on the most # of picks right, the tiebreakers will be who has the national champion, then who has the runner up, then who has the most super regional winners.

Anybody know the odds on you doing it,tough to pick when you dont know supers pairings .good luck to everyone even you Oiler.(No sarcasm intended).Thanks everyone for your numbers ,parings info,should be some great games.

Being a numbers geek, it always bothers me when someone quotes the odds of having a perfect NCAA basketball bracket, because those odds are calculated based on each team having a 50% chance to win each game, when in fact the odds are much greater that a top seed (especially 1 thru 4) will beat a low seed (13-16). In this WCWS format, someone could theoretically calculate the odds at about 9 trillion to one. But if you change the assumption that the odds of picking the regional winners in a double elimination format from 25% to 50%, and the odds or picking the super regional winners at 60% vs. 50%, the odds drop to closer to 30 million to one. Yeah, Ricky's money is still pretty safe!

tough to pick when you dont know supers pairings.

Super pairings are in the order listed in OP - #1 vs 16, #9 vs 8, #5 vs 12, #4 vs 13...

WCWS will have first 4 super regional winners in one bracket and the other 4 winners in the second bracket. It is possible for 2 teams from the same bracket to play in the championship series because the teams coming out of the losers brackets cross over to play the undefeated team in the other bracket.

Example: Florida wins 1st game, loses 2nd and wins 3rd. They would then have to beat the undefeated team in the 2nd bracket (e.g. UCLA) TWICE to advance to the championship series.
