Front Door Cup

The Shed door needs a paint job as bad as a slippery McDonald’s needs top notch lawyers. It’s been painted red in dedication to St. Nick for more than a year (and definitely not because the guys have been too lazy)…but times are a-changing. So, our annual CBF picks competition has been dubbed The Front Door Cup (FDC). The winner will get to choose the color of the front door. I get the feeling if G2 or G3 win, the door will be America’s brightest orange.

In what’s known as the “great compromise of 2021,” all the guys agreed to “keep it between the buoys.” Each week all three guys will submit five CFB picks. The picks will be divided between two categories: the big three and solo picks. The big three will consist of three games we agree on that we will all pick (ML underdog, spread, or O/U). The solo picks will be two picks that each guy finds on his own. Any game, any pre-game bet (no player props). We won’t be posting units for the FDC but each guy will also be posting his entire card with units included.

Here’s an example FDC card:
