# Conference Champions — NFL prediction accuracy

Scored under the published methodology (https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/methodology), which sets out what counts as right, what a naive guess would have said, and why an earlier call is worth more than a late one.

## The numbers

- **Takes logged:** 369
- **Graded:** 187 (51% settled)
- **Average accuracy:** 25.1 out of 100
- **Scored 80 or more:** 31; **under 40:** 124
- **Pundits who have made one:** 101

## Who is good at conference champions

MissedTakes Score for this kind of prediction only — accuracy measured against what a naive guess would have scored; zero means no better than guessing. Ratings this early are samples, not reputations: the confidence tier says how many graded articles sit behind each.
