The name "bracket" is American English, derived from the resemblance of the links in the tree diagram to the bracket punctuation symbol ] or (called a "square bracket" in British English). The closest British term is draw, although this implies an element of chance, whereas some brackets are determined entirely by Seed (sports)">seeding. In some tournaments, the full bracket is determined before the first match. In such cases, fans may enjoy trying to predict the winners of the initial round and of the consequent later matchups. This is called "bracketology", particularly in relation to the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament. This prediction is not possible in tournaments, such as the FA Cup and the UEFA Champi ...
