With the current ever changing rosters year to year, preseason polls may become out of date/irrelevant/obsolete.
There is some truth to that.

Always look forward to the FBS games but I’m afraid the one this year will need to be forgotten quickly. A top 5 FBS team vs. a young inexperienced FCS team will not bode well. Last year they opened with Mercer and ot was 73-7. They are supposed to be better this year. Hopefully this game will get ignored in the fcs polls.

Certainly not representative of where we finished in ‘23. And, Chattanooga ahead of us? Didn’t we beat them last year… twice!?
The second time hardly counts. Love the win but, as Jackal or someone said upthread, they were missing JAY PERSON and their qb and starting CB. and etc etc. And it showed. That was half the team …. Person was a BEAST. Best D Player In conference BY FAR. With him it’s a game. Without we are far better. He’s the type guy that in this new portal NIL world might have been gone a year or two earlier

Hardly counts? We throttled them in Greenville. By the same token, we played them in Chattanooga with Person on the field and we played most of the game with a backup QB and beat them anyway.

Remember, many of the dudes they were "missing" in the playoffs are guys that they are "missing" this season, too.

About Us

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
