Make an NFL Prediction League Using a Free Spreadsheet Tool
I made a cool spreadsheet that lets you run your own NFL prediction league. It’s pretty easy to use and it’s totally free. Here’s what it can do:
- Set up pick 'em contests
- Run survivor pools
- Make weekly forms for players to submit picks
- Keep track of scores automatically
The spreadsheet uses some fancy scripts to pull in game info and create nice-looking tables. It’s all done through Google Sheets so you don’t need to download anything.
To get started:
- Copy the template spreadsheet
- Follow the setup instructions
- Share the form link with your friends
- Watch the results come in each week
I tried to make it simple but let me know if you have any questions. I’m usually pretty busy with family stuff but I’ll do my best to help out when I can.
Good luck with your league! Hope you all have an awesome football season.
yo this spreadsheet sounds dope! i been tryna get my crew into nfl predictionz but everyones like ‘nah too much work’. this might be the ticket tho. quick q - can u customize scoring? like give extra points for upsets n stuff? anyways thx for sharing bro, gonna give it a shot fosho!
Wow, this spreadsheet tool sounds incredible! I’ve been looking for something like this for ages. Last season, I tried to run a prediction league for my office using a cobbled-together Excel sheet, and it was a nightmare. Spent hours every week updating scores manually and dealing with formatting issues.
The automatic score tracking and game info updates are exactly what I need. And the fact it’s all on Google Sheets is perfect - no need to worry about software compatibility or downloads.
One thing I’m curious about - how does it handle late changes to the NFL schedule? We had a few COVID-related game shifts last year that threw everything into chaos.
Anyway, can’t wait to give this a try. Might finally be able to expand our league beyond just the die-hard football fanatics in the office. Thanks for putting this together and sharing it with everyone!
I’ve been running NFL prediction leagues for years, and this spreadsheet tool sounds like a game-changer. The automated score tracking alone would save hours of manual work each week. I’m particularly intrigued by the survivor pool feature - those can be tricky to manage without dedicated software. One question though: does the spreadsheet handle tiebreakers for pick 'em contests? That’s always been a pain point in leagues I’ve run. Either way, this is a fantastic resource for football fans looking to add some friendly competition to their season. Thanks for sharing your hard work with the community.
