In case there was any doubt about who was going to win the Overall Confidence contest, El Gordo slammed the door shut in week 18. After installing himself in the top spot back in week 10, El Gordo maintained a 10-15 point lead over Zach for the next 7 weeks, but then a 112-point, 14-win performance in week 18 ensured a run-away Overall Confidence Crown for El Gordo. His 1,715 Confidence points are the most ever scored in the history of the UPsP. DowntownTinaBrown scored 106 points in the final week to jump into second place, but was 34 points behind the winner. Points were up across the league this year as last year's winning score of 1,538 would have landed Action Jackson in 40th place this year.

Bacon200 only spent a single week alone atop the Pickem' standings and El Gordo was always trailing the leaders by a few picks, but a huge week 18 allowed El Gordo to make up 3 wins to catch Bacon200 at the top of the standings and secure the semi-Overall Sweep as El Gordo and Bacon200 shared the 2024 Overall Pickem' title. Their 198 win total (72.8%) is the highest in the history of the UPsP, surpassing the previous high of 186 set by Foxtradamus back in 2021. After spending a number of weeks in the top spot and always hanging around the lead, God's Favorite finished in third place just one win behind the leaders.

El Gordo wins week 18 Pickem' This year's regular season finale was one of the strangest in recent memory with so many players resting or with nothing to play for, it was very hard to figure out who would win. Blackjack was tripped up a little early thanks to Carolina and Chicago, but was perfect the rest of the day to finish with 126 points (thanks to the default Confidence point settings) and win the week 18 Confidence victory. 1/2 Point finished in second place, eight points behind his progeny, mostly due to the 11 points surrendered on the GB upset.

On his way to a record-setting Overall campaign, El Gordo turned in a master performance in week 18, missing only the Atlanta and GB upsets and correctly predicting the Patriots and Jets wins to finish as the only player to win 14 matchups and thus earned the week 18 Pickem' victory. TheRealFutbol, Blackjack, 1/2 Point, JBSaari, and SDMENDKFMB all finished with 13 wins, but TheRealFutbol was only one point off of the Lions winning score and so finished in second place on the first tie-breaker.
