You guys should have an auction where you pair seeds (1 upper left with 16 lower right, 2 upper left with 15 lower right). You auction these pairs and pay for each win. I was in one last year and it was alot of fun.

It was the first year doing it and I have thought of other ideas to help with financing it such as putting minimums to have some sort of guaranteed pot and doing the 5,6,7,8 seeds first, and then the 1,2,3,4 seeds because if the 1 or 2 seeds get drawn early, their is extreme value in those because people don't know what the final pot is.

Once you got the final pot, you would end up paying for each team win, there are 32 opening round winners, 16 2nd round, 8 3rd,4,2,1 so the payout would obviously go up incrementally.
