Quicken Loans, owned by Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, will award a $1 billion prize to anyone who fills out a perfect 2014 NCAA tournament bracket.

It’s the Quicken Loans Billion Dollar Bracket Challenge, insured by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway.

“We’ve seen a lot of contests offering a million dollars for putting together a good bracket, which got us thinking, what is the perfect bracket worth?” Quicken Loans president Jay Farner said in a press release issued by the company. “We decided a billion dollars seems right for such an impressive feat.”
