Bracketland

Bracketland is an NCAA College Basketball Tournament bracket generator that uses FiveThirtyEight's Power Rankings to roll a loaded die for each matchup.

Create an unlimited number of results for all your office, school, and personal March Madness bracket games. Perfect for when you need to win that pool but don't know diddly-squat about DI college basketball. Even if you're Joey Brackets or Nostradamus, with more than nine quintillion possible combinations, we could all use a little edge.

2024 Update - 538 has been subsumed by ABC News and no longer runs its former NCAA tournament predictions. However, Nate Silver has continued his work independently and has published this year’s power rankings on his Silver Bulletin Substack. This tool now uses that data for 2024 and 538's historical data for previous years.

2022 Update - The tradition continues.

2021 Update - Real tournament on; we're back, babyyy!!

2020 Update - Real tournament cancelled; simulated tournament live!
The coronavirus pandemic cancelled this year's March Madness, but FiveThirtyEight has committed to holding their own simulated tournament. Generate a few brackets and follow along!

2019 Feature 🎉 - Choose your winning team!
Have a favorite pick but don't care how they tear down the nets? Optionally pick a default winner and have the bracket generator handle the rest.
