Spreadsheet Survivor Pool 2022

And somehow it is football season once again! To stop our inbox from being further bombarded by questions regarding the hold up on our 2022 Football Survivor Pool… here ya go! This is a newer faster version thanks to the implementation of the “Analyze Picks” button.  Use this button to refresh the next week’s dropdowns instead of waiting for the update to happen real-time! Thanks Allyssa!!

Also, for anyone who is wondering if we will help you…1) make some adjustments to the pool’s functionality and/or 2) send them the password?
… the answer is Sorry (not Sorry). For our freebie templates, we are NOT willing to give away our secret sauce. HOWEVER, if you want us to amp up your template (or any other project for that matter) for some additional Casheesh… then we can talk. Just Submit a Task here.

This is a PC- and Mac-ready Excel Rain Man Tool for managing your own survivor-style football pool using Microsoft Excel. Survivor Pool spreadsheets still aren’t really available on the market these days (you’re welcome), and more offices continue to block access to the available online providers (WTF?). Thus… BOOM!

First and foremost if you see the pesky pink security issue… watch this video:

 

BACK to the Spreadsheet Survivor Pool…

Here’s the deal.
Rules:
– Each week pool participants will choose one football team to win, straight up (i.e. no spreads)
– Once a participant has chosen a team, they will be unable to choose that team for the remainder of the season
– If your team wins, you move on to the next week
– The league manager can choose single- or double-elimination style and how to handle ties in NFL games

Logistics:
– A Pool Manager is needed to coordinate this “spread-tasterpiece” and will enter selections each week for the participants
– The Manager must download the FSP template to run it on their computer
– Each Pool Participant will email his or her weekly selection to the Pool Manager (prior to the first game of the week)

Footnotes:
– All game start times are listed in Eastern time zone
– The Pool Manager will need to account for any unforeseen schedule/game impacts (such as due to the result of COVID-19 or flex schedule changes) as we will not be updating the tool mid-season
– All flex schedule games currently listed without a start time are shown in the FSP as Sunday 1:00 PM games with an asterisk to denote that they are TBD

DON’T FORGET the 1st game of the season is Bills @ Rams on Thursday, September 8th @ 8:20 pm!
