Up to #63 in KenPom, gotta think we would have to annihilate Citadel at Timmons and UNCG at 'The Well' to move up any higher this week though

Marc Ryan on espn upstate said last week without a doubt Furman is the best team in the state.

Here's the link ...CBR is the first segment (recorded before the Mercer beat-down): https://www.audacy.com/espnupstate/podc ... 1228770447

Up one in the net to #66. Agree, it will be hard to move up this week. Citadel is a lot like FU, love the 3. Makes them dangerous. Shot poorly against UTC but won’t against FU. Same old story. FU gets everyones best shot. Way too msny tickets left for Wednesday. C’mon people! This team deserves a good crowd. Hope students show up.

Why these students won't go to the games on a Wed. night (or Sat.) is a mystery to me, when all they have to do is walk across campus. What the heck else do they have to do on a week night? You can't study all the time. Everybody needs a break.

I bet we had 500-800 students or more almost every game back in the 70's when I was at FU. Had a damn good showing in Charlotte at the North/South doubleheader too, every year. It was a whole lot of fun and a good way to blow off some steam.

Wofford falls at Mercer 67-62.
By next Monday night Mercer will either have 6 socon losses or they will have handed UTC their second or third socon loss

Students were actually turning out pretty good early in the year, its these dang Wednesday night games that are just terrible for the SoCon, unless the league changes things up next season (which they should) I don't see much that can be done about it

UTC has 3 tough games in 6 days starting Wednesday, At Samford, MERCER, @Mercer. Would love to see Mercer knock them off once since we are 2-0 with Mercer. Prolly not happening.

I am pulling for Mercer to finish third, just in case we win out and are tied with Chattanooga for first place. The way I read the tiebreaker rules, that would give us the top seed. Beat The Citadel.

If we win out and Are tied w UTC
UTC wins the tie break (2-0 vs VMI while we are 1-1). We do need UTC to lose another game if we want the #1 seed.

Now if Mercer beats UTC once we definitely will want to support Mercer finishing above VMI.

I am expecting vegas to have FU favored by a ton when the line comes out this evening

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
