Bach Nation finally has its own fantasy league.
ABC and Stocking Girl’s Wet Pink Petalssister company ESPN on Monday announced the "official ultimate fantasy game experience" for the upcoming season of The Bachelor.
SEE ALSO: 'The Bachelor' just announced a 'dramatic' line of signature winesThe game, which is available on ABC's website and the ESPN Fantasy App, gives fans of the popular reality show franchise the opportunity to predict which four women will make it to the hometown dates and who will receive the final rose.
Bios of the contestants -- as always -- are available on ABC's website.
Season 21 of The Bachelor, which debuts Jan. 2, stars Bacheloretteand Bachelor in Paradisealum Nick Viall.
Many super fans have held Bachelordrafts of their own in the past -- but now ABC is offering an easier way to organize brackets. That's exactly why ABC tapped ESPN, a fellow Disney property, to help build an official Bachelorfantasy experience.
"There have already been so many of these fantasy games that people do with pencil and paper or put together their own little HTML websites for, so it's been a missed opportunity to date for us," Dan Bohm, a senior product manager for ESPN fantasy offerings, told Mashable.

Bohm said ESPN's base of fantasy products -- it offers leagues across a variety of sports -- made for a scalable base that was relatively easy to tweak for a non-sports subject.
"One goal with fantasy at ESPN is to broaden our horizons and expand beyond our core demographic," Bohm said. "We want to reach out to new audiences, either to introduce the concept of fantasy or to get an audience that's already playing fantasy to play it on our platform."
In the new Bachelorgame, players can earn points for correct predictions and each point is an entry into the grand prize drawing.
The winner gets a trip for two to Los Angeles, two tickets to The Bachelorette: After the Final Rose and two tickets to Disneyland in summer 2017.
The League will also feature a weekly game, in which players can earn points for correct answers. Each point is an entry into that week's drawing for a dozen red roses (because of course) and the grand prize drawing.
So might we soon see similar non-sports fantasy offerings co-produced by ESPN and fellow Disney companies? Bohm didn't specify anything of the sort -- but didn't write off the idea, either.
"We’re always looking for strategic opportunities to expand our user base if it's the right opportunity and the right moment," he said.
