The Unofficial Furman Football Page

One of the talking heads on the CBS sports network show, Inside College Basketball, just predicted Furman could go undefeated. Just reporting what he said.

Technically true. Pomeroy pegs the odds at .03%. Beating LSU would take the odds to .1%.

Let it be so.

If we play like we did in the second half yesterday-knock down the 3's and play tenacious defense (we have lacked both multiple times this season), yes it would be possible! Few turnovers helps!

San Francisco Dons — 1956 (29-0)
North Carolina Tar Heels — 1957 (32-0)

UCLA Bruins — 1967 (30-0)
