Office Pool Manager - Create a College Bowl Confidence Pool

College Bowl Pools are played like a single week of the NFL season. You pick all teams up front and then accumulate points as games are played and the bowl season progresses. Choose from the rules below to customize your pools.

Double check ALL settings before clicking "Create Pool"!

Pool Info

Pool Name

(< 50 characters)

Password

(6 To 20 characters, only alphanumeric characters are allowed)

The Pool Password is what your pool members will use to join your pool if you decide to make your pool 'Private'. Do NOT use a personal password as you'll need to give this out so users can join your private pool. You must choose a password even if you're creating a public pool so that you can convert this pool to private later if desired.

Pool Type:

Private Public

Pool Picks

Picks are weighted (confidence pool):

With this feature set, besides picking teams to win, players must assign weight values to each of their picks showing their 'confidence' in the pick, higher weights meaning more confident. If there are 40 bowl games used in your pool, the player assigns each pick a weight from 40 to 1, 40 being most confident. The weight is multiplied by the points earned for that game (Win = 2, Tie = 1, Loss = 0, or whatever scoring system they choose) to determine the total points for a win or a tie in that game.

Allow users to see the games (not the teams) that others have picked before the deadline passes (affects All Picks page):

Number of picks that players must make from among the available games:
