Why aren’t picks locked
Create a pool to compete against, family, friends, coworkers, your scout troop, whoever. Pools can be public for all to join or private with passwords so you can control membership.
Join an already existing pool. Be it one you’ve been invited to or a public one where you want to put your picking ability to the test.
After you've joined some pools you'll need to submit a pick for a team you believe will win their game that week. Careful though, as you can only pick a team once per season.
If you’re in a pro football pool all teams will be available for picking any given week. If you’re playing in a college football pool only the top 25 ranked teams will be available each week.
Once the first college or pro football game of the week is in progress picking is locked. So be sure to get your picks in on time each week.
After that it’s all up to the guys on the field. You just have to sit back, watch, and hope you made the right picks for the week.
Your Pick Won: You move on to pick again next week.
The cycle continues until you pick wrong or are the last one standing in your pool. Best of Luck.
Your Pick Lost: You’re eliminated.
You're eliminated from the pool. Don't worry though. New pools can be started up to week 6. Try your luck again against new opponents.

Thank you for the feedback Rushmore. We've received some feedback from others about this.
To give people optimal time to get picks in at the start of the season we were only allowing college and pro teams playing on Saturday and Sunday to be eligible for picking.
This made picks for pro football overly difficult we're realizing.
So today we've rolled out some changes:

The nfl version is only giving me 24 teams to choose from. All the heavy faves are not an option to pick.

Hey everyone the AP Top 25 for the 2022 Pre-Season has been revealed!
As a result the new pool creation for the 2022 season has been opened.
As a format change, this year we are going to be testing only allowing college football teams playing on Saturday to be picked in a pool.
Additionally only teams playing on Sunday for pro football will be allowed to picked for Pro Football Pools.
This will give everyone more time to submit their picks any given week since the turnarounds are getting increasingly short between games as TV networks spread them across more days each week.

We're going to skip the first weeks NFL games as picks since we had site difficulties today due to Russian spammers. Go figure.

We've got the AP Top 25 Pre Season out today.
For anyone who hasn't seen it I'll post it below.
I'll include some interesting facts too and mark any teams that are appearing in the top 25 for the first time since this site was created with a ^.
