How to Play Fight Song Fantasy™

Long Teams vs. Short Team

Each squad consists of 9 FBS teams: 8 Long Teams you want to win each week, and 1 Short Team you want to lose. Both a win (Long) and a loss (Short) score the same way — so picking the right Short team is just as strategic as your Long picks.

Commissioner Guide

Commissioners run league setup and keep draft day moving. Use this page as your checklist before the season starts.

Create a League

  1. Open league creation. From your dashboard, click Create League.
  2. Set your league details. Enter the league name, max squad count, and draft date/time.
  3. Save and review settings. After creation, open Settings any time to adjust draft date and other league options before the draft begins.

Invite Managers

  1. Invite by email. Go to your league invites section, enter one or more email addresses, and send. Each manager receives a direct join link.
  2. Invite by join code. Share your league's join code with managers who want to join manually from the app.
  3. Confirm everyone joined. Ensure each manager has joined and created a squad before starting draft prep.

Managing the Draft

  1. Set the draft date. When creating a league, choose a draft date and time on the creation form. To change it later, open your league's Settings page and update the Draft Start Date field.
  2. Wait for all squads to join. The draft cannot begin until the number of squads in the league equals the league's maximum squad count. Share your invite code or invite link so every manager can join and create their squad.
  3. Assign draft slots. Open the Draft Preparation page for your league. You will see a table listing every squad. Use the slot selector on each row to assign each squad a unique pick position (1 through the league size). Every squad must have a slot before the draft can start.
  4. Start the draft. Once all squads have joined and all slots are assigned, the Start Draft button on the Draft Preparation page becomes active. Click it to transition the draft from Pending to Live and send everyone to the draft room.

Note: slot assignments are locked for a squad once that squad has submitted its first pick. The draft can be paused and resumed at any time from the draft room.
