The rules for the Ultimate Football Challenge are as follows:

Each week the contestant will be required to submit selections in person by Friday at 10 p.m. The following point system will apply each week:
- If a contestant does not submit their picks in advance of the deadline, they will receive zero points for the week.
- Each winning selection will be worth one point, with a tied selection being worth half a point.
- Only the ticket generated when the entrant submits their picks will be accepted as a valid entry.
- All games selected must be played within one day of original game date.
- If not played within one day, contestant will get zero points for that selection.
- Contestants are not permitted to play both sides of any one game.

All college and NFL games scheduled to take place between Wednesday at line release time and the close of play Monday which have lines at the time of each weekly release will be available for wagering.

The top ten will receive a percentage of the remaining prize pool with third place getting 10 percent, second place being awarded 20 percent and first place obtaining 40 percent off the remaining prize pool.
