I was 1-3 this past week, pushing my overall record to 44-11. With one week to go until the playoffs, the heat is on for a couple of teams to get themselves in the playoffs. Based on what I have seen, here's what I have to this point. The numbers in parenthesis indicate the number of wins they need against DI teams to be considered for the playoffs.
1) Georgia Southern (Autobid) - Wins their first SoCon title in some time.
2) Appalachian State (IN) - Retains possession of the Jug for one more year.
3) Wofford (1 of 1) - Needs to win on the road to punch their ticket.
4) Furman (1 of 1) - Has some tough sledding down in the Swamp.
5) Chattanooga (Eliminated) - Can they get their revenge this week?
6) Samford (Eliminated) - Last second play was enough.
7) Elon (Eliminated) - Wonder what Shuman would say this week.
8) The Citadel (Eliminated) - Tough loss at home against Samford.
9) Western Carolina (Eliminated) - Wagner's still head coach?
Predictions
The Citadel 14 @ South Carolina 42 - Gamecocks too much for Bulldogs.
Samford 10 @ Auburn 41 - Tigers get back to their winning ways.
Furman 13 @ Florida 49 - Furman's undefeated vs. Florida? Not after this week.
Georgia Southern 24 @ Alabama 45 - Tide rolls in this one.
Coastal Carolina 35 @ Western Carolina 21 - Chanticleers end their season on a winning note.
Wofford 21 @ Chattanooga 24 (Upset Special) - Coleman's back and the Terriers are in trouble.
Appalachian State 42, Elon 28 - Mountaineers win in an effort to secure a first-round home game.
