Biggest upset is probably right. We played like crap but this is the same team that lost 2 games in 2 years in Conference. With our D and Huff and Roberto back we will win some games.Disappointing as hell but this has been an over achieving bunch the past couple of years and I will take this any day compared to where we were.
Overachieving is right.

Our OL is probably the most over-rated group on this team. With he exception of a couple of games we have not been able to run the ball. There are certainly no complaints about the D. The D has played championship football all year especially the last half.

I can’t remember a bigger upset in my 41 years. I might be overstating this loss, but I cannot imagine a worse way to spoil all of the good this team has done this season. We stood poised for things we hadn’t achieved in post season play in almost 20 years. Now I don’t see us winning a game.
I think we should be fine with huff back, but we’re just too one dimensional today. Can’t understand why Carson can’t run some, seemed to have some opportunities.
No, I do not think we will be "fine".

I swear I think it was those stupid silver helmets. Get rid of all that alternate crap
and quit trying to be Oregon or worse Western KY.
Totally agree!!

Stuff like this in sports just never ceases to amaze me. How could we lose to a 1-9 team? Defense played well except for 1 play. Offense sucked all day. Our RS freshman QB played like a freshman today but he didn't have much help.

Huff and Roberto out really hurt.

We'll be lucky to even get a seed now.

worst offensive performance i've seen.....maybe ever. just all around ineptitude. That said maybe we can turn it around and get back on track. hope we get a seed or it could be a quick exit.

Furman is good, but not great. A great team would never be in this position. I have no expectations for this team in the postseason at this point.
True. I have no expectations in the postseason either.

Is that the most costly loss ever for Furman football?
It definitely feels like one that we might look back on later and identify as the point where it all went sideways.
That's a disgusting thought. Definitely where it all went sideways this season. Hopefully not long-term future. But it might be.

With two of the top two teams losing to bottom feeders today the SoCon will probably just get 2 teams in, Still think FU will get a seed and bye. Even if we get an easy first game and win the second game is now assured to be in the frozen tundra.

3 Wofford turnovers. We had first and goal from the 10 yard line twice and got 3 points.

Offense has been horrific.

The good news is we have the second half to show what we can do.

This hurt bad. Even the Wofford qb ran for a key first down late in q4

One time Carson DID Run and it was wide open with ONE dude on d and he ran RIGHT INTO THE ONLY WOFFORD GUY ANYWHERE NEAR HIM. my buddy said “was our qb TRYING to get tackled???

Just a few scrambles by huff we probably win

HOWEVER so what. We have offensive issues as playoff teams will be much better than Wofford. Though I do think Woff has a good D

Last three games
Western 28. Woff 25
Woff 11. Citadel 3
Woff 19. Furman 13

Just thoughts:

1. We played with fire and finally got burned.

2. Our defense was championship caliber again. They forced a bunch of turnovers and were hurt by one busted play on a tackle. Can't really fault anything the defense did.

3. The offense had a terrible day. We've seen this play out a few times over the season, but things just looked out of synch. Our Freshman QB was missing throws. We dropped the ball. And that played right into Wofford's plans to fly everyone up against the run.

4. Even when things went right, they wen't wrong. With that last forced fumble, for instance, Dimaggio jumped on the ball not realizing Gilby was right behind him ready to pick up the ball and waltz into the end zone. It was just that kind of game.

5. It's probably worth remembering that Furman was already at the best-ever run of winning in SoCon play. We knew it was going to catch us eventually, and today was that day. It's really hard to win in this conference as many times as we have.

6. I'm just hoping we can get the seed, a bye week, get everyone healthy and rested, and hit the playoffs running. We made our path to Frisco a lot harder today.

Wofford does have a good defense. They returned something like 7 or 8 starters. Their issues are on offense, not defense.

Even if TH comes back, chances of him being 100 percent is slim.
