NCAA College Bowl Pools
College Bowl Pickem and Confidence Pools
Picking college bowls is becoming a popular pastime. We have numerous configuration options for our Pickem and Conficence pools. Create a College bowl pickem or confidence league or join an existing league.
How College Bowl Pick'em Pools Work
- You pick every bowl game. For each win you get the points assigned to that game.
- The manager can choose which Bowls to select. For the quarter and semi-final games, players can pick those as soon as they are set.
- The player with the most points after the bowl season wins!
How College Bowl Confidence Pools Work
- You pick every bowl game including the championship game, placing a weight from 1 (lowest confidence) up to the number of bowl games.
- NOTE: Semi-final games are excluded since the teams are unknown at the start of the bowl season (use a standard NCAA Confidence Pool if you want your players to pick weekly throughout the Bowl season)
- The player with the most points after the bowl season wins!
