2026 NCAA Tournament

Welcome to AX

March Madness Edition

Cover or get cut

Draft NCAA teams, beat the spread, and compete to win it all.

Simple to play

How It Works

1

Sign up & set your entry

Register as a player and choose how many teams you want to draft — anywhere from 1 to 4.

2

Draft your teams

When the draft starts, picks rotate in snake order. You can pick manually when it's your turn, or let auto-draft handle it for you.

3

Your picks hit the bracket

After the draft, every team you chose shows up on the live tournament bracket.

4

Beat the spread to keep your team

When games are played, if your team's opponent covers the spread, ownership can transfer. Stay sharp — every round counts.

5

See who wins it all

Follow every matchup in real time. The player whose team is holding the trophy at the end takes the pool.

Why it's fun

More than just picking winners

The spread adds a twist — even if your team loses the game, you can steal ownership if they cover. Every game matters, right up to the final buzzer.
