Welcome to my favorite tournament — the 2020-21 installment of the NCAA College Baseball season.
FORMAT: 1 vs. 1 play
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all players, although I ask freebies to keep pace with the flow of the tourney — six maps per week. If you start falling behind I will go to the reserves list at my discretion.
HOME MAPS: Sequential order is required…the rest is up to you. No poly.
DEADLINE: Registration will close Wednesday, Nov. 18 (tentative)
TEAMS: The leagues are preset to follow last year's guidelines. If you don't see your Division I school on the list just let me know and we can add it in. The number of teams and shape of each league is fluid. The goal is to sort leagues into groups of 8-10 teams that best mimic the true NCAA landscape.
I have listed most of the power leagues for sign-up purposes, but feel free to request a school that is not listed.
Also, just like this year's COVID rules in the real NCAA, I will likely tweak the final leagues ... the goal being to fit 8-10 team leagues with a geographical fit.
REGULAR SEASON: We will have a 28-game regular-season schedule, although some teams may sneak in more games based on holiday and league tournament results.
• Scoring is based on a three-map system (see box below). Teams that win 2 of 3 will usually come out on top, but it is possible to win once and take the game if you win quickly and lose long battles. This allows us to post realistic basketball scores and track scoring stats for the teams. Two of the three maps will be played on the home team’s settings, while a random map (escalating, chained, sunny) will round out each game.
20-round limit applied to all maps.
If overtime is required an extra map will be sent out on random map settings.
• Scoring example…
Team A wins in 7 rounds (28-17)
Team A wins in 10 rounds (24-16)
Team A loses in 12 rounds (15-22)
FINAL SCORE: Team A wins 67-55
Tournament scoring...
MARCH MADNESS: At the end of the regular season, a tournament committee will select the field for the March Madness playoff bracket. Automatic bids are awarded to the winners of each conference tournament, so you can finish last during the regular season and still have a shot at the Big Dance with a run at the end of the year.
I will announce the size of the bracket once sign-ups are complete. Ideally, we would have a 64-team field like the regular NCAA tourney, but it will likely be a smaller bracket.
The March Madness phase of the tournament will be played under an eight-map format with each map representing a different player — 5 starters and 3 bench players. These are played on preset maps (see list below) to replicate the neutral-court environment of the NCAA bracket.
PG — Higher seed’s Home Settings
SG — Lower seed’s home settings
*SF — Classic
*PF — City map (to reflect which region you are playing in)
*C — USA
*Bench #1 — Random
*Bench #2 — Random
*Bench #3 — Random
*settings — escalating, chained, sunny
POWER UPS: Teams earn “power-ups” for their tournament teams by accomplishing various tasks during the regular season.
