Furman vs Mercer - we cannot take Mercer for granted. I hope that we come to play.

Sammy vs UTC - with Jake Stephens return
(21 points and 10 rebounds tonight against VMI) , I would consider this game a toss up.

UNCG vs Wofford - I would favor UNCG, but I would not be surprised if Wofford pulls an upset.

Western vs ETSU - a toss up in my opinion.

Should be lots of good basketball.

Go Furman !!

No reason to take MU lightly, All we could do to beat them at home last week. 3 of their starters played 20 minutes or less tonight, the other 2 only 21 and 26 so no fatigue factor at all. They had a nice warmup tonight which gives them an edge.

On paper I favor we have the biggest advantage over any other team in the other matchups BUT zig you come and aren’t ready to play you may lose. That would be pretty horrific.

We played well in the biggest game of the year last week so I expect the same.

Not surprised that UTC beat Sammy.
UTC is a different team with Stephens.
UTC was up by 18 , but then fell behind by 1.
Almost an incredible win by Sammy.
Marshall played great . I think Ques was either hurt or sick in the 2nd half. Sammy will be tough next year with Glover and Marshall.
