--After the North won two road games against the South on Wednesday, there are four games between the two divisions, all of them at the North, on Saturday. What happens now? Georgia Southern heads to Samford, The Citadel goes to UNCG, Davidson heads to Chattanooga, and (in the SoCon Monster Game of the Week, with a preview coming later on today) College of Charleston travels to Elon. This is a huge night in the early season Battle of North vs. South.--It will be incredibly difficult to come up with an out of conference win on Saturday for the SoCon. Appalachian State goes to Missouri (who looks like they will be without Dixon), Furman (who has the worst RPI in the country at this point) heads to Illinois-Chicago, and Western Carolina heads to undefeated Eastern Kentucky. Ummm....doesn't look good.
--I'm really interested in all the SoCon games on Saturday. Georgia Southern has underperformed to this point, but Samford has not been good either. Which one gets the win? UNCG has really struggled, but The Citadel has not earned muh respect yet. They can earn a large measure of respect with a win in Greensboro. Davidson's trip to Chattanooga could be interesting if the Mocs play with the intensity they have been playing with. Of course, the CofC-Elon game will be previewed later on today. The second and third best teams in the SoCon? Yes, please.
Don't count the Catamounts out before the game even starts. I think the Cats will match up well with EKU.
ReplyDeleteNot counting them out, but it is going to be TOUGH on the road.
