I was 3-2 last week. I thought ETSU would be improved but I did not think they would be 6-1 at this point. Samford looks like someone you really don't want to play. Here's where I have after yesterday's games numbers in parenthesis indicates the number of wins needed vs. games remaining for a chance at an at-large bid).

1) East Tennessee State (2 of 4) - Won a game I thought they would win at the outset.
2) Wofford (3 of 5) - Had a disappointing effort.
3) Chattanooga (2 of 4) - Got back on track against WCU.
4) Furman (5 of 5) - Still fighting for their playoff lives.
5) Samford (OUT) - Stomped the ever living daylights out of VMI.
6) Mercer (4 of 5) - Came up short on the road.
7) Western Carolina (5 of 5) - Had no answers against Chattanooga.
8) The Citadel (OUT) - Had nothing to be ashamed of.
9) VMI (OUT) - Are who we thought they are at this point.

This Week's Games
The Citadel @ VMI - Bulldogs bring home the Silver Shako.
ETSU @ Wofford (Game of the Week) - Bucs show they belong at this level.
