Impressive:
Samford’s Welch: 33-44 370 yds. 4 TD’s 0 int.
Not impressive:
UTC’s Arnold: 11-26 130 yds. 1 TD 2 int.
UTC began the season ranked, but I'm not exactly sure why. They quit the spring season and didn't really have any impressive wins or even a sizable margin of victory over anyone.

Arnold is another transfer (they've got a ton of transfers), but really hasn't been overwhelming during his time at UTC. He's a sub-50% passer. It wouldn't surprise me to see the Mocs eventually have to go to the Copeland kid.

If he’s able, UTC would be much better off going to Robert Riddle, transfer from Mercer. I’ve seen enough of all 3 of them to have formed the opinion that Riddle is, by far, the best of the 3.

Not a bad showing for the SoCon so far.

Mercer wins as expected over Point.
Furman wins a big OOC game against a top 25
Wofford beats Elon, though I had not realized Elon was picked to finish last in CAA
VMI beats the Davidson, who was picked to win the Pioneer
Samford gets a convincing win over an OVC team
The Citadel loses to an FBS top 25 on the road

Western is leading EKU
ETSU has Vandy tonight

UTC didn't carry the water and lost to APSU.

Georgia Southern backs up their 1 pt win against Campbell in 2020 with a 5 point win against Gardner Webb tonight.

Glad to see they've elevated their program to that national behemoth we heard about for years.

Most of southern conference celebrated wins here largely show either the fall of the Southern Conference or the rise of other teams and the parity in FCS ball.

Good win by ETSU regardless of how good or bad Vandy may be this year.

About Us

GoPaladins.com is the latest iteration of The Unofficial Furman Football Page. Launched in August of 1996, The UFFP welcomes fans of all FCS football teams - and fans of the more inferior sports, too - for discussion, cameraderie, and even the occasional smack talk.

For example, Furman has nearly twice as many Southern Conference football championships as the next best SoCon member, and over three times as many as The Citadel....which is why they must carry our luggage
