It appears ETSU is trying to challenge VMI & Citadel for the bottom of the SoCon.
I would rate VMI above WC, Citadel, and ETSU and that is bad, really bad.
Yeah, things look really bad at all 4 of those schools. Not sure how I would rank them if someone made me.

Agree. That was a good OOC win for WCU. As was Furman's.

Don’t want to look it up but it’s been in the last 10-11 years for sure.

Wofford was in a tough spot. Sent everybody on that last PC TD and the kid made the right read and throw. Not sure they needed to though. PC hadn’t done much throwing the ball that drive and WC had been getting pressure without send 6-7 guys. PC QB stood in there, took a shot, but made the play.

Not a super easy schedule for The Citadel to start but 10 points in 3 games is…rough.

VMI showed some signs of life at times today. I thought Shannon looked better than Ironside and their WR who scored their lone TD today looks like he could be a good player.

Captain Obvious but Quarles is in trouble at ETSU. In their 2 D1 games they have been outscored 112-6.(49-3 and 63-3).

True. But at least PC gave scholarships when we lost to them. Wofford’s loss tonight is a major embarrassment.

Since moving to the Pioneer, PC has been one of the worst FCS football teams.

Wofford is 0-3. They are averaging less than 200 yards per game and 11 points.

There's a compelling argument that Wofford is one of the worst teams in the division right now. The Citadel may be right there with them.

Wofford Athletic director Richard Johnson is retiring out of that athletic department faster than a hobo totin' a sweet potato pie.

Montana escapes D2 Ferris State (a very good D2 team, but D2)
So I guess Montana will move up a couple spots and we will drop for beatng an FBS(almost) on the road.

2014 PC 10 FU 7 we should have never played in Clinton. At least they had scholarships back then,

William and Mary, who is considered the top CAA team and consistently ranked ahead of Furman, squeaked out a win at Charleston Southern.

It does appear that we may be trending this season back to the years where the SoCon was very top heavy with App/GSU/Furman and everyone else a shade of bad to mediocre.

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
