Welcome back to another season of the SEC Rant Against the Spread Pick'em. This competition has been dominated by everyone's favorite poster, Tuscaloosa, the last few years so we'll see if that reign comes to an end.
Below is the line for tonight’s game. I will create another thread with the rest of the games so people can make picks all the way up until Saturday’s cutoff point.

Just a reminder that you must make a minimum of 40 picks throughout the season. You can start picking in any week, as long as you make at least 40 throughout the season.

Please bold your choices and leave out the games you are not choosing. If you could follow the example I set in the first post it would be greatly appreciated.

All posts will typically be cutoff at the start of the first game of the week, but this week we’ll do two threads so people can continue to pick games until Saturday at 11:00am CT (I'll start that thread tomorrow).

The first team listed will always be the favored team, and the team in all caps will be the home team. You can pick any amount of games from the week that you want, but you don't have to pick any if you don't want to as long as you hit 40 for the season. If there is a push, the pick will be voided. No FCS matchups included which is why the first game is OU/Temple.

You cannot edit your picks after the games have started, or you will be eliminated from the contest.

Can I ask what is the criteria for winning?

Percentage of correct picks, regardless of overall number of picks made? Or overall number of correct picks? Something else?

Thanks.

I know you are supposed to be good at this, but did you know that Dabo is 12-1 against the spread as an underdog? That's the sole reason I took Clemson. Otherwise I wouldn't have touched it at all. What's your reasoning?

I took Clemson also. I think UGA wins, but I think it will be closer than most expect.
