Picks are due very soon, (though there is still some time to go here and submit them) so it's time to reveal the final BTBS picks of the season. I disagree with about ten of these picks, so we'll see how it goes...either way, it's been a semi-successful season of picks. I'm really confident in my preseason projections system moving forward, but I've got to figure out how to not get whipped repeatedly once Vegas figures teams out by October.
| Category | Last 2 Wks* |
Season |
| All Games | 6-8-1 (43.3%) | 352-310-9 (53.1%) |
| Big 12 | 1-0 | 47-39-2 (54.5%) |
| "LOCKS" | 0-0 | 30-30-2 (50.0%) |
* "Last 2 Wks" entails Championship Saturday two weeks ago and Army-Navy last week.
The good news is, even if I go 0-34 in bowls, I'm guaranteed to be over .500 for the season. So I've got THAT going for me...

- The picks I disagree with the most: Wyoming-Fresno (I hope DC pulls something off, but I have the sneaking suspicion that Fresno wins easily), BYU-Oregon St. (I think OSU's built to beat a team like BYU), BC-USC (the numbers have loved BC all season, but I just don't see how they keep this one close), Air Force-Houston (I think Houston covers easily), and OSU-Ole Miss (Is Robinson healthy? And isn't he going to seem rusty as hell?).
