    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    Correction - #20 WCU. I would lean more towards the AGS ranking over STATS or the Coaches any day.

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I do agree with this. I know we are all doing a "right now" kind of take on things, and have all kinds of arguments for our teams (as we should). In the end, as one of the other posters said, right...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    Then let's go with this hypothetical. We schedule Davidson and Stetson that year instead of Mars Hill and one of the SEC teams. We are now 8-3 and no doubt are in over a 6-5 team. Would that schedule...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I think 6 are required, and 7 are preferred. This has been argued elsewhere, but would WCU those 2 years been better because they scheduled and beat Pioneer teams? I'd argue we would have been the...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I don't have a problem with the teams you picked in the top 5 - only the order. I see your rationalization, but I would say that your anomaly is kind of a big one. No team other than the one has...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    After that weird 5-4 season, we didn't have another winning season until 2014 when we had back-to-back 7 win seasons (and didn't make the playoffs either time).

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I default back to basically almost all publicity is good publicity. That effort led to Mercer showing up on the front-page of the sports section of USA Today. If even only a blip-on the radar,...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    As you often hear, any publicity is good publicity. My daughter is at FAU, and I can tell you a coach like Lane Kiffen (or look at Harbaugh at Michigan) believe having your school talked about and...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    Posted in other thread, too. If Wofford loses to Samford and WCU and Samford win-out in conference, we end up with a 3 way tie. But way too much very tough football left to consider it right now. ...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I'd say win the next 2 and you are in. Furman would be 5-3 at that point, and can easily point to the failed 2-pt conversion, an FBS loss, and the last-second FG by a now-ranked Elon as your only...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    1. Wofford - by the slimmest of margins over WCU right now
    2. WCU - by the same slimmest of margins over Samford right now
    3. Samford - Will be really interesting if they keep winning and beat...

    Re: Socon

    As one of my Cat-brethren already posted, I agree that playing Mars Hill or similar to me is pretty much the same (or even better competition) than some of the other non-scholly schools. But in a...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    In 2015 WCU was 7-4, had 2 SoCon losses, and only other losses were to SEC schools - Western did not make the playoffs. In 2017, I am really scared that same kind of scenario could play out. If we...

    Re: Socon Week 7 pick em and power rankings

    I know there is a long way to go, but given that so many teams have to play each other between the most likely playoff contenders (Wofford, WCU, Samford, Furman) and the guys who still have outside...
