Just checked. Samford still hasn't announced game times for any of their home games.

I wonder what their problem is. Their first game(Aug. 23rd) is less than a month away and is on espn. Maybe they are thinking espn will want to put them on national TV again during the season, lol.

Does anyone know how in the world Samford got picked for the ESPN game? It's awesome that FCS is now getting a little love from ESPN, even if it's just this one game at the beginning of the season, but it would sure be nice if they picked some of the country's best teams since more eyes than normal will be on that game.

I sent an email to the AD at Samford. His reply stated they were waiting for a couple of game times from Alabama and Auburn so they would not be going head-to-head with them, hopefully enhancing their attendance. He implied they would be announcing some game times soon.

Makes me appreciate Furman's approach.

Yep, when Clempson and SC are playing has absolutely no effect on FU attendance. I am sure it's the same in Alabama.

I did some research for the Samford AD. On Oct. 5, Auburn is away at Florida and Alabama has a bye. Email from him this morning said the Furman game will be at 2:00 CT.

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
