Platform Launch Season • 2026
Weekly Confidence Poll

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.

Pick Sheet

Make Picks Page

Assign one unique confidence value to every matchup before kickoff. Any incomplete picks at lock time are automatically replaced using Blind Picks. Unfinished matchups are highlighted to make them easy to spot before you save.

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

Perfect Takeover Poll

Draft a playoff team. Survive the bracket. Steal a winner.

The Perfect Takeover Poll is a postseason game where every player drafts one playoff team. Winning keeps you alive — but covering the spread determines who controls the team next.

Takeover Draft

Every player gets one team.

1

Draft order is set

League players are seeded by standings. Outside players can be randomized, and placeholders fill open spots.

2

Teams are drafted

Players select one playoff team when they are on the clock.

3

The bracket begins

Once every team is assigned, the Takeover Poll moves into the playoff bracket.

Snake Draft

Takeover Draft

Draft your playoff team during the timed snake draft. Once selected, that team belongs exclusively to you for the entire Takeover competition.

Takeover Draft
The Takeover Rule

Winning is not always enough.

Favorite wins and covers

The player with the winning team advances with that team.

Your team loses

If your team loses and there is no takeover, you are eliminated.

🔀

Favorite wins but does not cover

The losing player takes over the winning team and advances with it in the next round.

Perfect Takeover Bracket

Following the Playoff Bracket

The Perfect Takeover bracket follows each player's team throughout the College Football Playoff. If a player's team wins and covers the point spread, they continue advancing with that team. If their team wins but fails to cover the spread, their opponent takes over ownership of the winning team and advances with that team into the next round. Because ownership can change after every matchup, a player may advance through the tournament with multiple different teams before one player is ultimately crowned the Perfect Takeover Champion.
