Week 11 of the 2012 AFL season is upon us, and here at Cappers Info, we are taking a look at all of the games that are on the AFL betting lines and making our Arena Football predictions for the week ahead!

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Orlando Predators @ New Orleans VooDoo
Date: Friday, May 18th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: New Orleans -7.5 (94)

The Predators have been one of the worst teams in the AFL all season long, but we think that they are going to find their way into the win column on Friday night on the NFL Network. The VooDoo have just been finding ways to lose games these last four weeks or so, and they are lucky to be 1-3 in that stretch. Orlando is debuting QB Chris Leak under center this week, and he is the best quarterback that the team has had all season long. Go with the Preds for the upset on the road.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Orlando Predators +7.5

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Georgia Force @ Milwaukee Mustangs
Date: Friday, May 18th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Milwaukee -8 (103)

This point spread bothers us. Georgia has won two games in a row, and now it has to come on the road to Milwaukee, where the Mustangs were just trounced a week ago by a very suspect Cleveland team. The Force clearly aren’t the better of these two teams though, and we think that the AFL point spread is justified. Milwaukee is our pick, but we are still wary of this game for sure.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Milwaukee Mustangs -8

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Philadelphia Soul @ Spokane Shock
Date: Friday, May 18th, 11:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Philadelphia -8.5 (125)

The Shock are back in contention in the Western Division thanks to the emergence of QB Kyle Rowley under center. The problem that we have with Spokane though, is that a ton of players have been leaving for the CFL in recent weeks. Rowley might be by himself in this one, and if that’s the case, he isn’t beating the Soul, even if the game is played in Spokane, one of the loudest venues in the league. This is going to be a one-sided romp in favor of the Soul.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Philadelphia Soul -8.5

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Iowa Barnstormers @ Jacksonville Sharks
Date: Saturday, May 19th, 7:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Jacksonville -1 (110)

The oddsmakers have lined this game as a tossup, and at least on paper, it seems relatively justified. The Barnstormers and Sharks have comparable records, and they are both struggling to find their ways into the win column. That being said, Iowa has played a tremendously tough schedule. Jacksonville… not so much. We prefer taking QB JJ Raterink on the road against the Sharks, who could be debuting their fourth starting quarterback of the season already in just Week 11.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Iowa Barnstormers +1

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Tampa Bay Storm @ Cleveland Gladiators
Date: Saturday, May 19th, 7:30 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Cleveland -7 (102)

The Gladiators and Storm met a month ago in Tampa Bay, and the outcome was a severely one-sided game in which the hosts romped. Of course, what we have to remember about the Storm is that they are 5-0 SU and ATS at home and 0-4 SU and ATS on the road. That being said, we think that the Glads are being tremendous overrated in this game thanks to a road win at Milwaukee last week. QB John Dutton will be good for his two or three picks once again, and if that’s the case, the Tampa Bay offense should be able to generate enough offense to at least keep this game within a score.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Tampa Bay Storm +7

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Kansas City Command @ Pittsburgh Power
Date: Saturday, May 19th, 7:30 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Pittsburgh -7 (95)

This will be the worst game of the season for sure. The Power and the Command are the two worst teams in the league, and in our opinion, this is the only shot that KC has of getting a win for the rest of the season unless it just totally sneaks up on somebody. QB Bryan Randall is the better of these two signal callers in our opinion, and if all else is equal on two lousy teams, the Power should be able to pull off the victory by double digits, just like everyone else has been able to do against the Command this year.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Pittsburgh Power -7

Week 11 AFL Matchup: San Jose SaberCats @ San Antonio Talons
Date: Saturday, May 19th, 8:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: San Jose -6.5 (116)

The SaberCats are clearly one of the best teams in the league this year, and they are going against a San Antonio team that has a lot of wins, but not a lot of quality results. A lot of these victories have come by close margins against iffy teams, and a lot of duels could have gone the other way. These two teams have already played once this year, a game that ended in a blowout for the SaberCats. There is bad blood aplenty here in this game, knowing that these two teams fought in the preseason to the point that the game had to be cancelled in the third quarter. The visitors are the better side though, and asking them to win by a touchdown, even on the road, isn’t too much to ask.

AFL Week 11 Pick: San Jose SaberCats -6.5

Week 11 AFL Matchup: Arizona Rattlers @ Utah Blaze
Date: Saturday, May 19th, 9:00 ET
Arena Football Week 11 Odds: Arizona -4 (127)

The best game of the weekend for sure. This is going to be the third straight week that we have seen San Jose, Arizona, and Utah involved in games against one another, and this is the last chance for the Rattlers and Blaze to get a win against any of the other teams in the Western Division. Utah stood toe-to-toe with San Jose for almost three full quarters before one stop caused the floodgates to open. The Blaze, in our opinion, are the better of these two teams. Arizona is only favored because of the fact that many think that this was the same team that was in the ArenaBowl last year. We just don’t see it like that. Go with Utah at home for the mild upset to put the Rattlers in a world of hurt.

AFL Week 11 Pick: Utah Blaze +4
