Final results:

Capz: 44-51-2
Chaz: 50-45-2

truly, you are the SEC TURD

*to the tune of here come the men in black* nationwide is on your side

what a ride this season has been. truly a ride.

once more unto the breach, dear friends.


LSU -5 still don't know about where futureTAMU went to college or if she even did

Arkansas -9.5 "it aint Ar-kansas, baby... its arkanSAW" "D-Mac got that woood!" ahh 2007 seems like a lifetime ago

Georgia -4.5 ya gotta dance with the lady what brung ya

Kentucky +25.5 ya gotta dance with the lady what brung ya

Alabama -17 there are three possibilities for how this game will go: 1) Alabama will win by a lot 2) Alabama will win in a soul crushingly close finish 3) something else

Old Mist -7.5 I don't even think about typing or saying old mist anymore.

South Carolina +23.5 ya gotta dance with the lady what brung ya

Tennessee -7.5 yeehaw

Florida +6.5 Jim McElwain: maybe he should McEl less.

EDITED: I posted this quickly so I could look at your picks. Now I am going back to put comments but I am not changing the picks. that is not tha captainz way.

it's the most wonderful picks of the year

My fondest wish? A tie, dear readers.

LSU (-5) Texas A&M is a team getting worse, LSU is still hoping for Coach Oh to get the stupid job. The line has moved a bit on this game since I posted it.

Arkansas (-9.5) I picked against Arkansas last week, mistake (miss steak)

Georgia Tech (+4.5) Option I guess?

Kentucky (+25.5) Louisville is sad, Kentucky is bad, who to pick? Going with the gut (bacteria).

Auburn (+17) thanks to the magic of the Captain's proprietary data, this is one pick I can be sure I'll miss! Alabama will definitely win this by 18 points.

Old Mist (-7.5) I picked in favor of Mississippi State last week, mistake (missed take)

South Carolina (+23.5) CLICK CLACK

Tennessee (-7.5) Playing for the sugar bowl, babee

Florida State (-6.5) did Florida State get another rapist quarterback?

top secret proprietary data

do not tell anyone this secret information.

ATS this year:

Auburn: 7-3
Kentucky: 7-3
Tide: 6-3-1
Vandy: 6-4
Arkansas: 5-5
UGA: 5-5
Old Mist: 5-5
SCar: 5-5
LSU: 4-5 (dnp the game against south Alabama)
TAMU: 4-5-1
Florida: 4-6 (dnp the game against Presbyterian but that would not have had a line)
MSU: 3-6-1
Mizzou: 3-7
Tenn: 3-7

use this as you see fit. please destroy this message.

whatever week this is

I am holding on tight to a five game lead, but a giant betting lineup this week threatens my chances.

CAPZ 4-2 (41-45-2)
CHUGZ 2-4 (46-40-2)

LSU (-5) at TAMU
Arkansas (-9.5) at Missouri
Georgia Tech at Georgia (-4.5)
Kentucky at Louisville (-25.5)
Auburn at Alabama (-17)
Mississippi St at Old Mist (-7.5)
South Carolina at Clemson (-23.5)
Tennessee (-7.5) at Vanderbilt
Florida at Florida State (-6.5)

*to the tune of here come the men in black* here come the men in black

without father adieu, here are my picks!


Georgia -22.5 not looking it up to see if ul Lafayette is any good at all. doesn't matter, Georgia almost lost to Nichols state but also beats auburn every year except under extraordinary circumstances.

TAMU -27.5 I have no idea and I don't care

Florida +13.5 but not winning.

Tennessee -16 vols gonna look really good against mizzou and vandy and be super hyped to get skulled 56-6 by Alabama in the seccg

Arkansas +1.5 this is a weird line in my idiot opinion

Vanderbilt +10 why do I think this game will be close? the answer is, of course, that I'm very very dumb

pickth

A seven game lead is nothing in this world. That's just me doing bad two weeks in a row and caps doing good. I won't count these chickens before they're hatched. The only thing I'm sure of is that Alabama would cover any hypothetical line against Chattanooga or whoever they're playing.

UL-Lafayette (+22.5) Georgia is so bad, they barely beat Auburn

UTSA (+27.5) I guess

LSU (-13.5) Florida can't get to 14, so LSU will cover

Missouri (+16) God bless expansion, we would never have this 16 point spread in a late-season conference game involving Missouri for some reason otherwise

Mississippi St. (-1.5) Why not

Old Mist (-10) You can throw out the records when these two bastions of white supremacy line up on the gridiron

what a terrible lineup

durrr durrr durrr i'm tha captain i'm a idiot

Captain Idiot: 2 - 5 (37-43-2)
The Chuckwagon: 6 - 1 (44-36-2) breathtaking

alright well here are some more

UL-Lafayette at Georgia (-22.5)
UTSA at TAMU (-27.5)
Florida at LSU (-13.5)
Missouri at Tennessee (-16)
Arkansas at Mississippi St. (-1.5)
Old Mist (-10) at Vanderbilt

throwing out the 4 games against 1AA teams. this is not a handsome line up.

how do you plan to celebrate your victory besides also beating me in the damn bowl pick them?

it's time for picks, proud

Georgia (+10.5) Auburn wins but I don't think that they cover in Athens, hotbed of dickery, with a whole team that's all taking horse tranquilizers just to sleep at night

South Carolina (-11.5) I can easily imagine this being the least watchable game on any channel at any time

Kentucky (+13.5) Tennessee seems like a team on decline, but they've got a lot to play for, too. I think Tennessee by ten sounds about right.

Alabama (-30) Absolutely no doubt, I don't even look at the line or the team opposing Nick's Juggernauts anymore

Missouri (-3.5) Vandy is going to have a kind of hangover situation with the close loss to Auburn. Or probably not, probably they win.

LSU (-7) ORGERON SMASH

Ole Must (+10.5) This line seems high for Trevor Knight to have exploded all his ligaments

*to the tune of here come the men in black* here comes a fascist prez

I'm really smart and good at picking


Georgia +10.5 the political pollsters must have come up with this line am I right

South Carolina +11.5 seems like it will be ugly

Tennessee -13.5 this is probably wrong

Alabama -30 that is a lot of points. Alabama will knock Mississippi state out in the first few minutes, balance a piece of plywood on state's chest, and then slowly and meticulously pile rocks on top of it for 50 minutes. 30 points is a lot of rocks I think but I'm a dumb idiot. also it isn't really that many rocks/points I guess. who cares

Vanderbilt +3.5 no idea!

Arkansas +7 probably wrong again. momentum? I guess

TAMU -10.5 maybe they'll be angry? old mist is all used up.

time to .... pick

Way to go, capt. I believe 5-2 matches the previous best rate (also 5-2) this year. I hope we tie, and then the sun explodes.

The very captain: 5-2 (35-38-2)
the big C that's not cancer: 3-4 (38-35-2)

Auburn (-10.5) at Georgia
South Carolina at Florida (-11.5)
Kentucky at Tennessee (-13.5)
Mississippi State at Alabama (-30)
Vanderbilt at Missouri (-3.5)
LSU (-7) at Arkansas
Old Mist at TAMU (-10.5)

*to the tune of ok you know the rest

Georgia Southern +27.5 walt you suck. i still think of the 'gles as a 1AA team so i was surprised at first to see a line but then i remembered. i remembered how much of a tool walt is.

Vanderbilt +26 hell they might even win the damn game

TAMU -13.5 looking forward to not being able to tell which team is which again

Arkansas +5.5 i can't remember arkansas being blown out this season so i'm pretty sure they'll keep this one tight

Missouri +7 south carolina's 4 wins have been by 3, 5, 6, and 3 points. that's what the boys down at the sports factory call a "stat."

Georgia +2 kentucky is not going to a bowl. also georgia will beat auburn.

Alabama -7.5 bad stuff goin'a happen

week rude ten

Georgia Southern (+27.5) I'm a little upset that there's a line on this game. Expecting a 42-21 kind of score.
Auburn (-26) believe!
TAMU (-13.5) I feel good about TAMU's chances. They're gonna be focused, because of the playoff thing.
Florida (-5.5) I expected this line to be like three points higher, but I am not a clever man
South Carolina (-7) Missouri is collapsing, right? That's the only sure thing I feel like I know about the East, which means inevitably the Tigers win this by 17.
Kentucky (+2) But not winning! 21-20, UGA, that's a guess. Well. I don't know. I hope they cancel this game.
Alabama (-7.5 but does it matter) c'mon man

week ten you're going to win

last week:
the c(r)ap: 3-2 (30-36-2)
tha cha(m)p: 4-1 (35-31-2)


Georgia Southern at Old Mist (-27.5)
Vanderbilt at Auburn (-26)
TAMU (-13.5) at Mississippi State
Florida (-5.5) at Arkansas
Missouri at South Carolina (-7)
Georgia (-2) at Kentucky
Alabama (-7.5 but does it matter) at LSU

week nyet picks

Alabama doesn't play, so no lock of the week.

Kentucky (+5.5) Utterly befuddling game. Missouri is favored, with a 2-5 record?  Kentucky is Kentucky?
Florida (-7.5) In a week I am not confident about, this would be the game I would pick as most confident
Auburn (-4.5) Can we soar with wings of eagles? Can we go to Oxford, MS, for the first time ever? Auburn seems to me a bad matchup for the boys of Alt Mist.
Tennessee (-13.5) I feel like South Carolina may not be a good football team.
New Mexico State (+43.5) I guess?

*to the tune of here come the men in black* here come the captainz pix (always going to say this from now on)

RIGGED!!1


Kentucky +5.5 they will win this but lose to Austin peay and not get to a bowl

Georgia +7.5 maybe not winning, we'll have to tune in and see

Old Mist +4.5 last week taught me nothing. have fun watching this crap.

South Carolina +13.5 Tennessee dicks around and wins on a missed field goal or something stupid

New Mexico State +43.5 all dogs go to heaven (and get picked by me ha ha). this might as well be a 1AA game. One of my brother's middle/high school friends had the AIM screen name "FutureTAMU" and now I wonder if she actually went there. I hope so, I hope her screen name wasn't a lie.

Week nein nein nein

Cappy LW: 3-2-1 Overall: 27-34-2 winner winner captain's dinner
Chuck LW: 2-3-1 Overall: 31-30-2 approaching .500, mateys

Kentucky at Missouri (-5.5)
Florida (-7.5) v. Georgia
Auburn (-4.5) at All Missed
Tennessee (-13.5) at South Carolina
New Mexico State at TAMU (-43.5)

No line for Samford at Mississississippi State

EDITED FER ACCURACY

*to the tune of here come the men in black* here come tha captainz pix

the question on everyone's mind: which one will I get right?

UMass +20 the ol "can south Carolina even score that many points" logic, they probably can and will
Alabama -19 the first time I looked the line was 17 but I saw it as 7 and I laughed out loud
Mizzouri -6.5 no idea how good middle Tennessee is and I'm not going to look it up
Arkansas +10 this is still weird to me, even if I accept that auburn is actually good
Kentucky +3 I think state is a spent force
LSU -5.5 gotta keep ridin the tiger train

week 8 is enough !

Lotsa double digit margins here, fellas.

UMass (+20) South Carolina suuuuucks
Alabama (-19) never in doubt, my friends
Miss Ouri (-6.5) Vanderbilt beat Middle Tennessee by 23.
Auburn (-10) I regret this before I finished deleting "Arkansas at." Bye week maybe?
Mississippi State (-3) this line looks suspiciously low
Awl Missed (+5.5) but not winning! I expect one of those ridiculous games where somebody gets a big lead and then a big comeback and eventually LSU wins 36-35.

week 8 wow the season's really flyin by huh

last week was certainly just another week "around the pick-off"

Cap: 1-4-1 (24-32-1) guuuuh
Char: 2-3-1 (29-27-1) great job

here they are in all their glory... they're lines, baby

UMass at South Carolina (-20)
Texas A&M at Alabama (-19)
Middle Tennessee at Mizzouri (-6.5)
Arkansas at Auburn (-10)
Mississippi State (-3) at Kentucky
Old Mist at LSU (-5.5)

"gotta pick em all!" (pokemon)

i just can't get enough kenneth bone

pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone pick up the phone who is it its Kenneth bone


Mississippi State +7 why is Mississippi st playing road games at umass and byu ever, much less in the same season
Georgia -14 a preview of what Georgia's win over aubarn will look like
Tennessee +14 I keep doing this why do I keep doing this
Missouri +13.5 do not watch this game
Old Mist -7.5 this could be a good game but I think it will end up not close
LSU -25 coach o and the boys got something for em

SEC TURD SEC TURD SEC TURD

BYU (-7) weird scheduling works out weird, and the travel to BYU seems to me to favor the Latter Day Saints (SaturDay Saints would be a good BYU football blog name, if it isn't already)
Georgia (-14) villainous
Alabama (-13) never in doubt, friends
Florida (-13.5) hardest pick of the week, no way I would actually bet this, and I don't think anyone else should, either.
Old Mist (-7.5) the Hogs appear overrated to me: best win is I guess double-OT against a mediocre TCU team?
Southern Mist (+25) equally the hardest pick of the week because of LSU's coaching situation.

week 7

ThaCap: 3-2 (23-28)
Chorles: 4-1 (27-24)

great work, Dackler

A fairly mediocre lineup this week?

Mississippi State at BYU (-7) on Friday for some reason, probably Mormons, but the closest line of the week.
Vandy at Georgia (-14)
Alabama (-13) at Tennessee
Missouri at Florida (-13.5)
Old Mist (-7.5) at Arkansas
Southern Mist at LSU (-25)

week s(ECTURD)ix

another great week of picks from youknowwho.

LSU at Florida: My prediction is that this game will be indefinitely postponed
Auburn (-3) I believe in Auburn's kicking game.
Texas A&M (-6.5) I feel like Butch is a bad gameday coach
Kentucky (-3) when I went back to recheck my picks, I couldn't remember who Kentucky was favored over. I looked this game up and Vanderbilt's quarterback only has one eye, which is awesome.
Alabama (-13.5) there is nothing I feel more confident betting on than I do that Alabama will cover, and I will never not feel this way until they rehire one of the Mikes. I would be more likely to pick Arkansas to win straight up than to cover but not win.
South Carolina (+7) but not winning! I have very little faith in UGA but less in South Carolina, so this splits the difference. This will be an ugly game played in a dadgum hurricane. Hardest pick of the week for this guy.

pick six (six games) ha ha

"goodbye money" - me to my money if these were real bets


LSU -3

Auburn -3 hardest

Tennessee +6.5

Kentucky -3

Arkansas +13.5 why am I doing this, what made me this way

LSU (-3) at Florida

Auburn (-3) at Missississippi State

Tennessee at Texas A&M (-6.5)

Vanderbilt at Kentucky (-3)

Alabama (-13.5) at Arkansas

Georgia (-7) at South Carolina

good lord man is right, man


Vanderbilt +10 dores got something for em
Georgia +3.5 i'm stupid
LaMo +33 this makes sense to me
South Carolina +17.5 this was the easiest pick
Alabama -35 sorry i'll never not pick tide again
Old Mist -14.5 old mist
LSU -13 isn't there some stat about teams after their coach gets fired that they always cover, i think that's a sports stat

just terrible

Florida (-10) Does this line seem low? Is it because it's in Nashville, toughest place to play in the SEC?
Tennessee (-3.5) Also seems low
LaMo (+33) I don't feel like Auburn can get to 33!
TAMU (-17.5) Going heavy with the road teams so far, don't trust it
Alabama (-35) Florida beat Kentucky by 38
Memphis (+14.5) I can't believe any actual gamblers would bet this game
Missouri (+13) I can't believe any actual gamblers would bet this game

week five southeastern confSECTURD SECTURD SECTURD

That Capitan: last week, 0-8, overall, 15-24 good Lord man

Kent State +43.5

Georgia +7

Florida +6.5

Mississippi State -22

Western Kentucky -7.5

LSU -3.5

South Carolina +1.5

Arkansas +5.5

secturd looks Latinate

Kent State (+43.5) obviously not winning
Georgia (+7) but not winning!
Florida (+6.5) but not winning! Tennessee breaking the so-called streak.
UMass (+22) but not winning. Why is this at UMass? Like, a home-and-home with Tulane or USF or somebody like that I would get. This is like playing at game in Wyoming.
Vanderbilt (+7.5) but not winning. Who would bet this game?
Auburn (+3.5) but not winning, it'll be a gruesome 13-11 heartbreaker. It'll be like the ole Tubby years but for the wrong reasons. Honk if you miss Brandon Cox. Heck, I miss Barrett Trotter.
Kentucky (-1.5) who cares
Texas A&M (-5.5) monstrous

ok

Last week (overall):
Tha Captain: 6-4 (15-16)

Kentucky -19.5

Mississippi State +14

Alabama -11
fool me twice: shame on you, fool me thrice: lane on kiffin

Georgia -6.5

South Carolina -3.5

Tennessee -27.5

Georgia Tech -6.5
sure why not

sec turds

Texas State (+31)
Auburn (-3.5) it's 2013 again! I feel it.
Florida (-36.5)
New Mexico State (+19.5) bad teams man. Toughest pick of the week.
Mississippi State (+14)
Ole Miss (+11) easy pick, though I said that last week
Georgia (-6.5)
South Carolina (-3.5) also tough
Ohio (+27.5)
Georgia Tech (-6.5)

weak three

Florida (-17) covers

Vanderbilt (-5.5) covers I guess? Toughest pick of the week.

Arkansas (+7.5) covers but does not win!
Arkansas State (+19) covers but does not win!
Eastern Michigan (+25) covers but does not win!
Virginia Tech covers (+11.5) but does not win!

If we did a confidence thing, then I would have Alabama covering as my top confidence pick.

because they didn't have lines for them on the first site i checked...

All games are on Saturday, so no hurry getting those picks in.

Kentucky at Florida (-17)

I don't like the formatting I did here. Dumb.

Appalachian State covers (+20.5)
Vanderbilt covers (-4.5)
Mississippi State covers (-28.5)
West Virginia covers (-10)
#16 UCLA covers (+3) and wins!
#5 LSU covers (-10)
Louisiana Tech covers (+26)
#18 Georgia covers (-2.5) :(
Southern Mississippi covers (+6.5) [one of two I even hesitated about]
Massachusetts covers  (+36.5) [one of two I even hesitated about]
#1 Alabama covers (-11.5) and maybe 11.5 more. I'd take a 23 point line before a pick em.
Auburn covers (+7.5) but does not win! Life is cruel.
#4 Florida State covers (-4.5)

It's time, my babies

Man, Blogger gets worse every year. I want things to change as little as possible, which is why Auburn's impending six-win season is such a joy.

the end

not the largest margin of all time, but the largest winning pct in CRISIS games (75%). the stuff legends are made of.

yep

What's at stake: if at least one of your picks today wins, it will guarantee the second best pick them winning pct in recorded history. If you win at least one of the CRISIS games, it will guarantee the highest CRISIS winning pct in recorded history. If you win both CRISIS, it will be the largest margin of victory in history.

I need to win at least two games today to avoid the worst pick them ever.

gaaah

Winner / Loser

When it comes to bowl games, you just gotta pick them. Whether there's 4 of them or 40, a bowl game you don't pick is a bowl game that everyone loses. Without further ado, these are Tha Captainz Pix. Remember boys and ghouls, the winner (I gahhh rohn teee) is listed first. And I've included Tha Captainz Thoughtz with each one. Just a little slice of my zany brain! Put your own zany brain slices in the comments, I love to interact. Blog at you later, blogbags!!

New Mexico: Arizona / New Mexico

This is going to be a great way to kick off bowl season. Can’t wait to tune in.

Las Vegas: BYU / Utah

Throw out the records when these bitter rivals get together. This hotly contested clash is known as “The Holy War.” Nobody knows why.

Camellia: Appalachian State / Ohio

The boys from Boone are rumbling down the mountain. At the bottom of that mountain? The Cramton Bowl which is the host site of this game.

Cure: Georgia St / San Jose St

“It’s Friday, I’m in love”… with this matchup!

New Orleans: Arkansas State / Louisiana Tech

Love this matchup.

Miami Beach: Western Kentucky / USF

Familiarity breeds contempt for these two schools which are located only 14 miles apart.

Idaho Potato: Utah St / Akron

Called “The Bowden Bowl” because Terry Bowden is one of the coaches, this game will be played inside the hollowed out core of the world’s largest potato.

Boca Raton: Temple / Toledo

Hey bowl guys… teams with names that DON’T start with “T” are eligible to be picked too!

Poinsettia: Boise St / Northern Illinois

Should be a barn-burner.

GoDaddy: Bowling Green / Georgia Southern

GoDaddy? GoGetMe the remote so I can tune in!

Bahamas: Western Michigan / Middle Tennessee

Western Michigan? Middle Tennessee? What’s next Upper Colorado???

Hawaii: Cincinnati / San Diego St

Watch out, it’s the Hawaii bowl.

St Petersburg: UConn / Marshall

Don’t mess with a streak! These ladies continue to amaze and inspire.

Sun: Washington St / Miami(Fl)

Named after Knoxville’s famous Sun Sphere, this game was moved to El Paso in 1974 due to a clerical error.

Heart of Dallas: Washington / Southern Miss

(like the song from the video) Washington… Washington… 6 and 6… This game should be fun!

Pinstripe: Indiana / Duke

More like the PUNstripe bowl, am I right?

Independence: Virginia Tech / Tulsa

Coach Frank Beamer invented Beamerball. Nowadays it’s all Beamerball and it’s all thanks to Coach Frank Beamer, the inventor of Beamerball.

Foster Farms: UCLA / Nebraska

I can’t wait to watch this game.

Military: Navy / Pittsburgh

The University of Pittsburgh’s “Cathedral of Learning” is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere. There is no oxygen and negligible gravity at the peak of its gothic spire. School tradition dictates that Seniors have to climb it and die.

Quick Lane: Central Michigan / Minnesota

One team just wants it more.

Armed Forces: California / Air Force

Call me Tupac because I’m here to give some “California Lovin!”

Russell Athletic: North Carolina / Baylor

What even is a “Baylor” anyway? Probably some brainiacs know but not me. I’m no brainiac.

Arizona: Colorado St / Nevada

Gaaah! Who can keep up with all these bowls!?

Texas: LSU / Texas Tech

LSU is excited because they have to drive “Les Miles” than if they played this game at the center of the earth.

Birmingham: Memphis / Auburn

Bad.

Belk: Mississippi St / NC St

Drew Belk. Love that guy.

Music City: Texas A&M / Louisville

Two of the founding members of the Big 8, known as “The Original Eight” get together to do a Tennessee Two-Step at the home of the Titans: Titan Stadium.

Holiday: Wisconsin / USC

This was the Christmas bowl until Obummer and the Libtards enforced their fascist, pc, war on Christianity agenda.

Peach: Florida St / Houston

Houston, we have a problem!! A football problem!!

Orange: Oklahoma / Clemson

yikes

Cotton: Alabama / Michigan St

yeeeeesh

Outback: Northwestern / Tennessee

Pretty sure Tennessee’s gonna win.

Citrus: Michigan / Florida

The Citrus Bowl is packed with Vitamin C, which in this case stands for College football.

Fiesta: Ohio St / Notre Dame

Classic.

Rose: Samford / Iowa

Pretty sure Iowa’s gonna win.

Sugar: Old Mist / Oklahoma St

For the winner of this game, victory will truly be “sweet.”

Tax Slayer: Georgia / Penn St

Pretty sure Penn St’s gonna win.

Liberty: Arkansas / Kansas St

Gonna be an old fashioned slugfest.

Alamo: Oregon / TCU

These two teams really know how to toss the rock around the ballyard.

Cactus: Arizona St / WVU

ok
