ShedHeads, Week 3 is here.

After two weeks of action, we have a tie at the top of the Front Door Cup standings. Guy #1 and Guy #3 both sit at 6-4, while Guy #2 bounced back from his 0-5 start with a 4-1 Week 2 and now sits at 4-6. Just two games separate first from last, and all three Guys are very much alive in the chase for the Year 6 Front Door Cup.

This week’s required games give us three great matchups: Houston v. Texas Tech, Louisville v. SMU, and LSU v. Ole Miss. Each Guy will make a pick from those three games before rounding out his card with two games of his choosing. Two weeks down. A long way to go. Here are the Week 3 picks:

Guy #1 (6-4 overall)

  • Houston v. Texas Tech u52.5
  • SMU v. Louisville u58.5
  • Ole Miss +3.5
  • Florida -2.5
  • Colorado v. Northwest u47.5

Guy #2 (4-6 overall)

  • Houston +7.5
  • Louisville -1.5
  • Ole Miss +3
  • Arizona State -5.5
  • BYU v. Colorado State o52

Guy #3 (6-4 overall)

  • Houston v. Texas Tech u52.5
  • SMU v. Louisville u59.5
  • LSU v. Ole Miss 1h u29.5
  • New Mexico v. Oklahoma o46.5
  • Texas 1h -18

No direct deposits on the board this week but no one is fighting on the required games. 15-0 is on the table. Week 3 gives Guy #1 and Guy #3 their first chance to break the tie at the top, while Guy #2 has an opportunity to build on last week’s 4-1 performance and close the gap even further. The race is tight.
