2025 Staff Pick’em Week 14

It was another good week for the staff with no one missing more than they hit. Import, already in the lead, extended his advantage by going 7-1. Tom, Cole, and I all went 5-3. Andrew, Christian, and the Commentariat all went 4-4. Overall, that put the stat at 30-18 for the week and 381-351 for the season.

The only collective blunder was not taking South Carolina to beat Coastal by more than 23.5 points. Every other game was at least an even split or a win for the majority.

It. Is. Rivalry. Week. There are 6 SEC-SEC games, 4 SEC-ACC matchups, and 1 B1G-B1G for the Dealer’s Choice. The only unanimous game is a dangerous self-jinx. There are 3 games with only 1 dissenter. 4 more games have the 4-2 majority. Another trio of games are evenly split.

The Rules

1. Normally, the picks are for all SEC games with one dealer’s choice where I get to choose another game to make us pick.

2. The picks will be made AGAINST THE SPREAD. Too many games are easy to pick heads up. Also, this will serve as a PSA for why you should not get into sports gambling, which is especially important with sports gambling being legal in Tennessee now.

3. The lines will be taken from FanDuel, who SB Nation has partnered with this season, some time Monday, so they may not match what is listed at the time this article is published. I may also use a backup for FBS-FCS matchups if the line is available elsewhere when I get the spreads.
