Looks good except #4 E. Washington should have dropped a spot or 2 and so should Illinois St. Didn't realize FU had 3 backs that averaged 10 yards per carry.

8 of the 25 ranked FCS teams played within 14 points of FBS teams last week. It would be good if we would do as well as any of those 8 when we go to Georgia State Saturday.

COACHES rank 11th !!! Also of note another way it pays to start w higher rank is that in stats poll we were the last team to benefit from Wofford and JSU losing - IE we were 19th and now 17th and Wofford and JSU are now, 18 and 19. Had we been 23rd to start we wouldn’t have benefited from Wofford losing

we are 11 /13 /17 in various polls -great

Definitely an advantage to start in the poll. Example Colgate has one blowout loss to an FCS and one blowout to an FBS team being outscored 82-21 and still in the top 25. lol. Don't understand Nichols getting blown out by a mediocre FBS team and moving up.

About Us

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
