Battle of North vs. South- Tournament Style

REGULAR SEASON
South 27, North 21

TOURNAMENT
North 3, South 1

TOTAL
South 28, North 24

ANALYSIS
We'll know more after tomorrow's games. There are three North vs. South battles tomorrow. Appalachian State-Wofford, Chattanooga-Furman, and Elon-College of Charleston are the three match-ups. The South could be ahead 4-3 at the end of the day tomorrow for sure. Still, today just showed again why the North is not quite as far behind as you might think from the South. Furman dominated Samford, but Elon beat The Citadel handily. UNC-Greensboro handled Davidson relatively easily, and Appalachian State did not exactly have a tight battle with Georgia Southern. The North outscored the South by 13 points. The North five seed beat the South four seed for the second time this year, showing that the North may be a touch closer to the South than people think. The 28-24 mark for the South is just a 53.8% winning percentage- hardly worth bragging loudly about. Like I said, tomorrow could change everything if the South wins three games, which they are more than capable of.
