Include Over/Under Totals

Start by including the over/under totals for each game which doubles the number of picks available. You will be able to fine tune this later.

Include Over/Under Totals

This is a more advanced option that most pools don't use.

Use MNF Tiebreaker

Predict the points scored (by both teams) as a tiebreaker.

This is the tiebreaker where you predict the total points scored, commonly for the Monday Night NFL game. The person whose prediction is closest to the actual total points scored by both teams wins this tiebreaker.

We use the last NFL game of the week as the default but you can set a custom tiebreaker game if you prefer.

Use MNF Tiebreaker

Select the Number of Games to Pick

"Pick All" is most common. Pick all the games on the pick sheet.

Of the games that are on your pick sheet each week, most pools pick every game ("Pick All"). You have to option to pick only a subset of those games. We call this "Best Bets" where your players will only pick the games they feel most strongly about.

Turn On Auto Picks

When people miss the pick deadline have the website generate a set of picks for them.

Auto Picks On

Default Auto Pick Option

This is the auto pick option that everyone will get by default when they sign up for your pool. Later you can define which auto pick options are available for them to choose from. And you can set a maximum number of times that autopick can be used per person per season.

Enable Backup Picks

In case a game gets cancelled/postponed/forfeited.

If you are not picking all the games on the picksheet, have your pool members make a backup pick in case one of their "primary picks" gets cancelled. A game is considered "cancelled" if it is not played in the week in which it is scheduled for whatever reason including cancellation, postponement to a later week, or the forfeit of one of the teams involved.

Enable Backup Picks

Name Your Pool

Make it yours

Pool Name:

You can name your pool anything you like. And since you can use your pool year after year, it's best not to include a year in the name. Descriptive names that your friends will recognize are best, like "Roger's Pick'em" or "Denver Pick'em".
