Ithaca and Cortland set a D3 record Saturday with 45K people in attendance for their game at the Giants/Jets stadium. Many thoughts emerge ... when’s the last FCS game that’s drawn that much? Probably Ivy League since a few have giant stadiums. Also, how did they secure an nfl stadium and how did they draw so many fans? Honestly not sure if Furman would hit 45K total for the year including Point game plus 2 playoff games. And I don’t think Furman is the outlier. I’m sure many in FCS would have that dubious claim. A bummer.

GoPaladins.com is the latest iteration of The Unofficial Furman Football Page. Launched in August of 1996, The UFFP welcomes fans of all FCS football teams - and fans of the more inferior sports, too - for discussion, cameraderie, and even the occasional smack talk.

For example, Furman has nearly twice as many Southern Conference football championships as the next best SoCon member, and over three times as many as The Citadel....which is why they must carry our luggage
