Hello every one, Here is a question about seed that confuse me currently. For previous year, we can see which team or seed match with which team in every round of tournament, because it's historical data. However for this season, beside the seed of 64 team in first round. we don't know which team will enter the consecutive rounds. And I notice the submission file of stage1 give team ID as reference for us to merge other features to it. For stage2 they must give us submission file before game start. So what that file will look like, since they can't provide team match besides the first round.

\n\nYou will actually have to predict every possible combination of games. So with 64 teams, there are 2016 possible matchups to occur in the tournament. You'll predict every possible matchup, first round and beyond, but we'll only score those that actually happen.
