Someone get a little too complacent for the return leg?

They already proved their point! No need to tire out the starters

How are the Ultra 64 decided?

For this edition, the 11 regular season champions (#1 on the conference table) are given an automatic bid.
The 11 schools who win their conference's tournament will also be given an automatic bid.
If the same school wins the regular season and tournament title, then the #2 team in the regular season table will receive an automatic spot.
This gives us 22/64 teams. The other 42 spots will be decided via at-large voting. Essentially all 6 conference hosts will send me a list of their top 42 teams that didn't get an automatic spot in the tournament already, and I'll average the votes to determine the final 42 that make the cut.

From there I'll use a separate algorithm (same as last season) to determine the seedings, 1-64 (rather than four sets of 1-16 like real life).

Last season I ran the DCIT, an equivalent to the RL NIT. I wasn't planning to do the same this season, but the demand seems to be there, so I'm changing my mind. The DCIT will feature about 12-24 teams that fall short of the Ultra 64, unilaterally selected by me.

All right, another question: In the Final Four, does the IC host scorinate them or will it be the same nation that scorinates the Ultra 64?

It'll be the same nation (Chromatika) who scorinates. The hosting is purely IC, just like the rest of the tournament venues.

Hey everybody! A couple of us thought that it would be cool to make a separate Discord server for the NSCF/NSCAA/other college competitions on NS Sports.

CLICK HERE if you have a Discord account and would like to join in the fun. Obviously nobody is required to join but it'll be a great place to discuss NSCAA things and everything else with college sports.

Oops, it looks like I forgot to post this link here.

NSCAA 14 Signups are open! We already have a decent number of signups, so the window will only be open a couple more days. We hope to have this underway by next week.

Signups are officially CLOSED! The threads are now open for NSCAA 14. First scorination will happen on Monday (March 20). Links to the threads:

Just a reminder to all of our contestants- Xkor does not support style mods for basketball

So you do not need them in your roster posts, as your hosts cannot implement them. Have fun RPing!

Just as an announcement to all those in the Shining Sun & Shango Conferences, I've changed the format for the conference tournaments.

The new format has been edited over the original format. Plus ask any questions here, or reach out directly via TG or Discord, I'll be happy to answer.

Happy Easter everyone!

After some discussion with the conference hosts, due to the holiday, we've decided to push the remaining conference tournament cutoffs back 24 hours. Enjoy the day, and see you all tomorrow night!

Hello! I just wanted to note that my results last night, I incorrectly stated that the second autobid in the Five Star went to Hendrick State, when it in fact, goes to Central State. I apologize for this!

When will the Ultra 64 teams be decided?

by **NSCAA Basketball** » Thu Feb 15, 2024 9:23 pm

*ahem*

Would anybody like NSCAA 15 signups??? Because hit that link if you do!!

Also, Chrom will be scorinating the Ultra 64 again, just to get that piece of housekeeping out of the way. Those who want to host conferences this edition, hit me up ASAP.

The first cutoff will be Thursday, March 21st, to coincide with the first round of RL March Madness. This gives you about 4ish days to get your rosters and opening RPs in. Cutoffs will be every 48 hours. See Roleplay thread for conference assignments. See Results thread for cutoff schedule. Use the Discussion thread for any further discussion about the tournament.
