How Do March Madness Squares Work?

If you are familiar with Super Bowl Squares, the core concept is the same for March Madness. A 10x10 grid of boxes is setup and each row and column are assigned a number from 0 to 9. Just like a Super Bowl Squares pool, each square of the grid can be claimed by a pool member.

Results and Winning Squares


Winning boxes are determined by looking at the halftime score, final score, and stats (rebounds, assists, steals). The top row of numbers (horizontal) represents the winning team while the side (vertical) represents the losing team. It pays out right way/wrong way for the halftime and final score. The stats pay out ONLY right way for the FINAL stats of assists, steal AND rebounds. Example Lets say Syracuse and Louisville play and the halftime score is 35-28, final is 52-48. Syracuses total rebounds were 32 and Louisvilles rebounds were 28, assists, 21, steals 15. Using the halftime score, numbers 5 and 8 win, on both their intersections, same goes for 2 and 8 for the final score. Now using the stats is only right way. The winning team is vertical, losing horizontal. So since Syracuse won, you find 2 across and match it with 8, and there is the winner. Same goes for steals and assists.
