How did you settle on the points awarded? Just make them up or did you follow someone else's model?

Not disagreeing, just curious. I think they are pretty fair.

I just basically asked myself, “What’s more valuable?”

How many Sweet 16’s would I trade to see my team make a Final Four? I mean in my mind, I think a Final Four should be worth at least 3… probably more like 4 Sweet 16’s.

Rounds that get your team to a new weekend are more valuable. So for instance, a Sweet 16 should be worth more of an increase in points compared to the increase between 1st and 2nd round. The biggest jumps % wise would be making the NCAA Tournament to begin with… the Sweet 16… the Final Four… and the National Title. Meanwhile, Second Round, Ellite 8, and Runner-up should see point increases but to a lesser extent, IMO.
