GAMES:


Liberty @ Coastal Carolina - If the Flames play anything like they did last weekend, the Flame could be burnt out early. Especially without their head coach. CHANTS BY 10
Kennesaw State @ Charleston Southern - As seen on CSU's Twitter, "When your back is against the wall, you tear it down!" CSU handles business this weekend because they know it's over if they don't. Back to back titles in Charleston. BUCS BY 14
Monmouth @Gardner-Webb -GWU gets it done on Senior Day. Tough day to be a road team in the Big South. DOGS BY 21
Presbyterian @ South Alabama - Money, and money only. No shot for PC. USA by 42


Power Rankings

1.Charleston Southern - Big win last weekend at Liberty in dominating fashion. Simple, win and you're in. I think they get it done and share the title and get the lone Big South playoff bid this year.
2. Liberty - Big loss last weekend. Still a notch better than the rest of the conference. With a win at CCU they are still out and I think they know that. Add Turner Gill not being there and another middle of the road Flames season is in the books.
3. GWU - This one is tough. But even at 4-6 I believe they have a better resume than 8-2 Kennesaw. Better wins and closer losses against top tier teams. Out of playoffs.
4. Kennesaw State - A big chance to make a Kennesaw STATEment and share the title in their second year of existence this weekend. Even though I don't believe they have the firepower to stick with the Bucs. Not yet at least. Out of playoffs.
5. Monmouth - Out.
6. Presbyterian - Out.

I agree with all the ones you posted. However I'm deeply concerned with my Bucs. Mostly because KSU has been playing really well lately. They're obviously a team on the rise and finding it's rythm late in the season. I think this one is a nail biter and CSU probably wins it on special teams when Hammond or Holloway break a kick return like they've done so often. CSU 31 KSU 28.

We've improved in a lot of areas, but special teams has caused heartburn for two straight years now. Most lopsided mismatch between the two teams imo. Kennesaw will have to catch some breaks to stay in this one, but I hope we do.

Surely PC cans Nichols after this season? Dude's record is horrible. No offense PC fans.

Liberty @ Coastal Carolina - I want to pick Liberty in an upset but after watching them play in person last week, they don't have the personnel to match head to head with Coastal. Coastal's OL is banged up and they have an issue at QB but their Defense is solid. If it comes down to a kicking game, Probert is a weapon but so is Granger. What the hell. FLAMES by a FG.
Kennesaw @ Charleston Southern - The BUCS need to keep the same edge as last week. Their Defense was just plain NASTY and must contain Kennesaw's potent offense and the CSU QB's need to protect ball, which has been an issue all season. CSU wins a close game.
Monmouth @ Gardner-Webb - GW wins going away as the HAWKS just are not very good and have spent most of the season on the road.
Presbyterian @ South Alabama - Name your score as the Blue Hose offense is not very talented. The big question is whether it will be a shut-out or not. My prediction SHUT-OUT

We're hoping some sort of change is made. It'll probably just end up being the OC getting canned and a new one brought in.
