We’d best not talk down any SoCon teams.

the only good wins were ETSU (0-3 in SoCon) beating top 20 Austin Peay. that is looking better. Citadel beating CSU and then GTech. Furman beating CSU and then playing so well v FBS. all the others are junk - needed Mercer to beat Austin Py or Woff to beat SC State or...
