Would be nice if we could score with the second half kickoff.

Yeah, Cronic just told the sideline reporter we have to beat Furman and the officials - without really saying it.

Hey, it’s the SoCon. Everyone has to beat the officials now and then.

No one is going to get any sympathy from Furman fans complaining about the refs.

James' ejection was probably targeting. Forcible contact to the head or neck of a definitionally defenseless player. Intent doesn't matter.

By the same token, Barton may have gotten a reprieve because the QB was jumping and spinning at the time he hit him.

Samford beats UTC. UTC had 507 yds and won the TO 2-0. Samford has wrapped up at least co-champs.

So much for that. Like I said play calling has been less than stellar. Running up the middle on third and 2 rarely works.

Knowng Cronic should have been looking for that.

Shiflett a former QB in the wildcat - why not let him throw one. Saving it for ……..

This feels like a game where if we can find the end zone one more time, we'll be in a good spot.

Their offense doesn't have a whole lot of answers right now besides throwing to #1.

My thought is you have #8 in the backfield. Don't over think it.

Admittedly, their DL is trying to submarine us on those 4th downs. That should leave someone open on a quick pass.

Amazing how much better the picture quality is on espn+ vs. channel 62.

No way that was targeting.
Yeah, not even arguable. I know Mercer fans are tired of the call going against them, but that wasn't remotely targeting.
