Bo McKinney starting at RT.

Looks like we will have a dry first half at least.

Boring game to watch.
I'm old enough to remember watching Furman football on a dry day.

Wet track out there. Affecting both offenses.

WCU is trying to slow everything down and limit Furman's possessions. They've made some nice plays in the passing game, but I think we've seen what they've got. The weather impacts them just as much as it does us.

Grainger looked a little more comfortable in the passing game than last week. They also appear to be letting him run the ball a bit more, which is something I have hoped to see this season. He's a tough guy to tackle in the open field.

Great two minute offense at the end of the half.

They are stacking in the box. They saw the Citadel film. We've got to be able to find some space out there.

Sure. We aren't going to keep playing in the rain forever.

It's not *that* bad out there today. Weather is just an excuse . . . every year, there will be games with subpar conditions. If Furman is only a good team in ideal weather, they aren't a good team.

Its not an excuse. Both teams playing in the same conditions. It's still a factor.

All kinds of things are "factors." The Paladins should not be struggling against WCU like this, nor should they have gotten beaten down by Citadel at home.

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
