How Many Bids Will SoCon Get?

Looks like a 2-bid league right now. Wofford and Furman will both have strong arguments if they can take care of business. Realistically 3 teams have a chance.

Furman - Beat VMI and Point and you're in. Win over Wofford too and you'll get a first round bye.
Wofford - Beat Mercer AND either Furman or Citadel and you're in.
Citadel - Win out, beat UTC and Wofford, and you're in.

I could see all 3 getting in if Citadel wins out, Wofford beats Furman, and all three win the rest of their other games.

I agree that in this scenario the SoCon could easily get three, but any scenario that doesn't involve Furman winning the conference and getting the auto-bid is one I'm not interested in. My deepest apologies to the other schools and the league office.

Given our League representative's failure to effectively advocate for Furman's inclusion last year, I think no apology is owed. Let's win out. The other folks can worry about their situation.
