In double elimination tournaments, teams are not eliminated from the tournament until their second loss. The way this is achieved is with a losers bracket. Everyone starts out on the top bracket, or winners bracket. After the first round, when half the teams lose, they drop down to the loser bracket.

To determine the number of matches use the formula, N=(cx2)-2. For example 17 participants/teams times 2 equals 34 minus 2 equals 32 matches. And there is a possibility there could be 33 matches if the loser bracket participant/team makes it to the final and beats the winner bracket participant/team twice.

When there are only two different conferences, there are two sides of the bracket. One conference is on one side, while the other is on the opposite side. Each side is organized according to a team's seeding; higher-seeded teams are matched against lower-seeded teams.
