Scoring Structure

Total points possible: 183

Tiebreaker

If two or more players finish with the same overall point total after a national champion is crowned, we’ll use the following system to break the tie.

First tiebreaker – Closest prediction of total points scored by both teams wins.
Second tiebreaker – Closest prediction for points scored by the winning team.
Third tiebreaker – Closest prediction for points scored by the losing team.
If a tiebreaker results in a deadlock, the players remain tied in the standings and split the pot.
