Brackets for Super Bowl and School Basketball team

In the Super Bowl playoffs, brackets are used to determine which team makes it to the Super Bowl.  Are the bracketing a linear or exponential expression?

What about the bracketing system used for our High School Boys Basketball team?  Would the bracket system be a linear or exponential expression?

Can you explain why?

Which team do you think will win the Super Bowl?  The real question, how far will our boys basketball team go in the playoffs?  (This leads to probability.)

Here is a link to the boys basket ball playoffs brackets: http://www.uhsaa.org/bbasketball/2014/2A.pdf
