The official NCAA Tournament field will be released by 7pm EDT on Sunday, March 12th. Participants can register for the competition at any time, but won't be able to fill out a bracket until the field has been set.

Successful entries will appear within the ‘Group Results’ area at the bottom of the page.

At the end of the 2017 NCAA tournament we’ll award the following prizes to our top finishers:

1st: $250

2nd - 6th: $50

Prizes will be credited to the winners TheNuts.com account and can be withdrawn from there. Don’t have a TheNuts account? It’s very easy to sign-up. Limit 1 prize per person.

All brackets must be submitted before the first game starts on Thursday, March 16th at 12:15pm ET.
