Why use a pick form

Stop rebuilding the weekly pool from messages.

One form gives every participant the same matchups, deadline, and tiebreaker instructions.

One required choice per game

A required radio field per matchup prevents two winners and flags blank picks.

Rules matched to your pool

Generate straight-up, spread, confidence, or survivor fields with your scoring and tiebreaker.

Entries ready for scoring

Consistent names, team options, and tiebreakers simplify sorting and spreadsheet export.

Formats for every pool

Start with the way your group already plays.

Keep the familiar rules, but make the weekly submission experience consistent on phones and computers.

Straight-up winner picks

Two clearly labeled team options per matchup, with all games required and a final score tiebreaker.

Confidence rankings

Pair every chosen winner with a point value and explain that each confidence number should be used once.

Spread selections

Put the posted spread directly in each option label so members know which line applies to that week's entry.

Survivor pools

Offer one eligible-team dropdown, a prior-pick reminder, and a confirmation that the participant checked their history.

Weekly setup

Build this week's pick sheet in four steps.

Start with your rules, then add the real schedule and deadline.

FAQ

Football pick submission form questions

Practical answers for pick'em organizers preparing the next weekly sheet.

What is a football pick submission form?

It collects weekly football predictions in a consistent format: participant identity, one winner per matchup, submission time, and a tiebreaker. Spread and confidence pools can add lines or point values.

What fields should a weekly pick'em form include?

Include participant ID, email, week, deadline and time zone, one required choice per matchup, and a tiebreaker. Add spreads, confidence points, or a survivor dropdown when needed.

Can I change the teams and games each week?

Yes. Duplicate or edit the form, then update the week, teams, spreads, deadline, and tiebreaker. Check every option against the current schedule before sharing.

How should I handle Thursday and early games?

Publish a deadline with its time zone and an early-kickoff rule. Close the full sheet before the first game or collect early picks separately, depending on your announced rules.

Can the form collect confidence points?

Yes. Add a point dropdown beside each matchup with a range matching the game count. Tell participants to use each value once. Request duplicate-value validation and test it before publishing.

How do I manage duplicate or corrected entries?

Publish one rule: accept the latest complete entry before the deadline or require organizer contact. A stable member ID and timestamps help identify duplicates.

Is this football pick submission form generator free?

Yes. Makeform offers unlimited free forms and responses. Generate, edit, publish, and reuse the weekly form without a response cap; the paid tier only removes the Makeform badge.

Where do submitted football picks go?

Responses appear in your Makeform inbox and can route to Google Sheets, Slack, or Zapier. Keep scoring separate and verify final entries after the deadline.
