SoCon Week 3

[The Jackal]

I know everyone likes to dump on Wofford, but their defense isn’t awful. Hopefully their offense is still figuring it out when we play.

VMI getting beat by Cornell. I don’t know what that tells me.

VMI is wearing white helmets, joining Samford, Mercer, ETSU, UTC, and the Citadel in copying Furmans look.

Currently WCU is struggling with PC 14-7 midway second.

I watched most of the first half. VMI was very ineffective in the first on the ground - only 5 yards rushing. VMI was OK passing the ball but not great. Cornell got more pressure on the QB. In general, Cornell's defensive line was better than VMI's offensive line. Cornell was 7 of 9 in the first half at converting 3rd down plays, VMI was 1 for 6.

Or so. Make it ok in end

Currently WCU is struggling with PC 14-7 midway second.

WCU leads 21-7 late in the first half. They have outrushed PC 140-15. Not much of a struggle.

Late push by VMI to cut the lead to 28-16. VMI has the ball back but only 1 minute left.

VMI scores again to make it 28-22 but there were only 5 seconds left. Cornell recovers onside kick to hold onto the win. The backup QB for VMI lead them to over 250 yards in the 4th quarter. A couple of huge turnovers for VMI were keys to the game.

Y. Last year Woff D was horrible. This year they are just left out to dry by their O. Or lack O. I hope the o stink when we play them. Now is the time to play Woff.

I mean, they've lost 13 in a row and they look worse now than they did last year. So, not sure there's a bad time to play them right now.

Looks like they've taken their forum down too.

Cornell was picked to finish last in the Ivy pre-season poll.

[The Jackal]

The citadel and Mercer are tied right about half time.

Not sure if the Citadel is any good. They look small and slow.

Man I hope we win tonight. Just from what I’ve seen through three weeks, I think it’s Furman and UTC that look the best so far.

[The Jackal]

Mercer came on late to beat the Citadel 17-0.

WCU over PC 77-21

Samford in a tight one with Tenn Tech.

UTC blowing out North Alabama 41-14

[The Jackal]

North Greenville gets a blowout win - 41-19 over Mississippi College.

Friend of the program, Corey Watkins, rushed for 165. Good for him.
