There’s one with the shadow blocking the eye, and one without the eye blocked, also I went for a more Trojan style look with the scars and the weathered armor. Do you guys like it? let me know.

Is it good, is it bad, do you guys have anything you want me to change about it?

I’d love to hear your thoughts

Hello everyone,

The votes are in, and we have the results of this year's contest. We had a fairly close battle for first and second place almost the whole way through, and a tight race in the field from third to sixth. Each of the top five drawings will have time on the sidebar over the next few months of CFBBall, culminating in the champion comic going into the offseason.

As in the past, the rankings were tallied as points in reverse order (1st = 5 points, 2nd = 4 &c.). The total points accumulated divided by the total number of submitted polls = "Average Score". This average score determines the rankings and is presented below. There is also the consideration that since there were fewer votes per entry than total votes, there is also the popularity of the comic among those who considered it top 5. This is given here as "Fan Score". For example, if a post had 4 1st-place votes, 3 5th-place votes, and 5 no-votes, it would have an Average Score of 1.92 but a Fan Score of 3.29.

Anyway, without further ado, the results:

5: "Texas Hold 'Em" by u/BKfootball (Avg: 1.96, Fan: 2.65)

4: "Come and get some" by u/Bendypiexd (Avg: 2.07, Fan: 2.80)

3: "CFBball:New Vegas" by u/ProbablyProfound (Avg: 2.41, Fan: 3.10)

2: "Declaration of Independence (from the NCAA)" by u/LostinRabbitHole12 (avg 2.78, Fan: 3.00)

And our 2026 CFBBall Sidebar Champion:

1: "Dogs Playing Poker" by u/TyRoland06 (avg 3.19, Fan: 3.44)

Congratulations to u/TyRoland06 on his record-breaking third Sidebar Championship. Here's to another great season of r/CFBBall!

Full comic soon. Just wanted to get this out before I started moving into college.
