How It Works

Pick winners. Rank confidence. Chase perfect.

The Perfect Poll is a confidence-based pick’em game where every pick matters — and where you place it matters just as much.
Platform Launch Season • 2026
The Basics

Every week starts with a pick sheet.

1

Pick each matchup

Your league gets a weekly set of matchups. Pick the outcome for every game.

2

Assign confidence

Each pick gets a unique confidence value. Higher points mean higher belief.

3

Score the week

Correct picks earn confidence points plus a 1-point bonus for each correct pick.

Scoring

Accuracy matters. Confidence placement matters more.

Correct pick Earn the confidence points assigned to that pick.
Bonus points Earn 1 bonus point for every correct pick.
Wrong pick Earn 0 points for that matchup.
Weekly total Confidence points + correct-pick bonuses − any Blind penalty.
Quick Example

Hit your 10-point pick?

You earn 10 confidence points plus 1 bonus point.

Matchup Total 11 pts
Game Types

Choose the format that fits your league.

Moneyline

Pick the team that wins the game outright.

Example: Ohio State vs Michigan → pick the winner.

Against the Spread

Pick the team that covers the point spread.

Example: Georgia -4.5 must win by 5 or more.

Over / Under

Pick whether the combined score goes over or under the listed total.

Example: O/U 52.5 → Over needs 53+ combined points.
Lock Time

Picks lock before kickoff.

Picks lock shortly before the first game of the week begins. Once picks lock, your pick sheet can no longer be edited.

Postponed Games

Postponements are handled automatically.

If a matchup is postponed, that game scores 0 and remaining confidence values are adjusted upward so the rest of the sheet stays fair.

The Blind

Miss the deadline? The Blind steps in.

If your pick sheet is incomplete when picks lock, your entire sheet is replaced by The Blind. The Blind provides a full set of weekly picks and confidence values.

The Blind is shown on the Make Picks page so players can see what would be applied if their sheet remains incomplete.

Blind Penalties

Moneyline No penalty
Against the Spread -10 pts
Over / Under -10 pts
Winning Strategy

It is not just about picking games. It is about knowing where to place your confidence.

Over a full season, the best players balance accuracy, confidence placement, risk, and timing. A missed low-confidence pick can be survived. A missed high-confidence pick can swing the standings.
