Round robin play involves each entry playing all other entries. For example if you have 4 teams entered, each team plays all the other teams or 3 games each for a total of 12 games played.

If you have larger number of teams, split them up into pools. Ie. 12 teams 3 pools of 4 each team playing 3 games. You then can take the top 2 best records from each pool and put them into a championship pool so you would have 6 teams playing 5 games each and the eventual winner would be team with best record.

How many NCAA basketball games in season?

The maximum number of regular season games is 29. Up to 3 games can count as 1 game, if they are in a tournament. So 31 games if 3 are in a tournament. Additional post season games are also allowed. 1. Conference tournament 2. NCAA, NIT, or CBI post season tournaments. If a team playes all 31 regular season games and the max conference tournament would be 5 games, and the max NCAA games of 6, they will have played 42 games. That hardly ever happens.

How many games played in college basketball season?

40 games are the most that have been played in an academic year (fall and spring semesters plus post-regular season games) to date.43 games are mathematically possible (but practically impossible) in one academic year, if a team is in the right conference and makes the the title game of every tournament it plays in that year.Regular Season Games Allowed:31 games in one season, consisting of27 regular schedule games+ up to 4 games if in an in-season tournament like the Preseason NIT or Great Alaska Shootout (my quick research showed most are just 3 game tournaments),or29 games if not participating in any in-season tournaments.[Source: NCAA 2010-11 Division 1 Manual, Section 17.3.5 Number of Contests]Postseason:Add in the # of games needed to make the title games for both the conference and the NCAA tournaments to get the total games possible.7 games are possible in the NCAA tournament, but the historical reality is no team has played more than 6.Conference Tournaments5 games are possible in the Big East tournament4 games are possible in the other major conferences (I assume this is the same number for the non-majors, but I am not sure).Based on the above, the maximum number of games possiblewould be31 games before post-season+5 games possible in a conference tournament+7 games in the NCAA tournament=43 games possibleMore realistically, the most likely maximum number of possible games played in any academic year (and the most ever played as of this writing) is31 games before the post-season+3 games in a conference tournament+6 games in the NCAA tournament=40 games max in an academic year
