League Rules

1 pick / week1 change / weekWin 1 · Push ½

The pick

One pick per person per week, Week 1 through the end of the season.

Claim a spread or total (Over/Under) — main lines only, full game. No alternates, no quarters, no halves.

Lines come from league books: FanDuel, DraftKings.

Counts. A full-game main spread, total, or moneyline. Alternates, first-half, and quarter lines do not.

Claiming a line

First tap wins that side — once someone holds Michigan −3.5, nobody else can take Michigan −3.5. The other spread, both moneylines, and the Over/Under stay open.

Your number and juice freeze at the book you tapped. Line movement never changes a claim you already hold.

Example. Chase claims Michigan −3.5. You can still take Oregon +3.5, Michigan ML, or the Over. If Michigan moves to −6.5, Chase is stuck at −3.5 — he cannot re-lock the new number.

Changes

Swap or drop until your game kicks off. After kickoff, that pick is locked.

Max 1 change per week. The board is the official record.

Example. You claimed Alabama −7, then swapped to Over 51. That's your change. A second swap is blocked. If you drop Alabama and take it again later, you get −7 back — not the new −9.

Scoring

Graded when the game goes final, against your frozen number.

LossMissed — or you didn't pick0

No pick by your last kickoff = automatic loss. A cancelled game voids the pick — it does not count.

Example. Michigan −3, they win 24–17: cover, 1 point. They win 24–21: push, ½. They win 21–20: loss. Miss the week: same as a loss.

The week

A week runs Monday through Sunday, Eastern time.

Example. Monday opens the new week. Sunday night still counts for the week before. The commissioner can shift a window if a game doesn't fit.

Season & pot

Season is Week 1 through the end of the season. Nobody is knocked out week to week.

$50 entry before Week 1 — $650 pot. Winner takes all; 2nd place gets their entry fee back. Ties broken by College Football Playoff rounds.

Join. There is no weekly elimination — it's a season-long points race. Most points at the end wins the pot.
