Field Goal Pool — On The Line
The green bar at the top shows who would win if a field goal was attempted right now. This changes dynamically as points are scored in the game and questions are answered!
Based on the current combined score of the football game, 3 players are "on the line." For example, if the score is 17 (e.g., 10-7), the players currently ranked 17th, 34th, and 51st are on the line:
-
✅
Good (1x payout)
The player whose rank equals the combined score. If the kick is good, they win!
-
❌
Miss (2x payout)
The player whose rank is 2× the combined score. If the kick misses, they win double!
-
🎯
Doink (3x payout)
The player whose rank is 3× the combined score. If it hits the upright (doink!), they win triple! Note: a doink can still go through — it counts as long as it hits the post.
