so in addition to hopefully improve the socon champion's seed or become more than a one bid league,there are significant financial benefits to each of the conference teams if a socon rep can make a deep run in the tourney.what was the last conference team to win an ncaa game?was it wofford?

After the cheerleaders brief appearance on Jimmy Fallon, the bookstore is almost sold out of any shirt with FU on it. Only small sizes left.

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
