BDMU's ranking and prognostications for Week 3
1. El Cid - 2-0 in the conference. Don't know why more people don't have them here. 2 conference wins 2 weeks into the season gets you the top spot. Want #1? Go beat the Bellhops
2. UTC - Shut outs are shut outs. But Shorter and PC? Meh. We'll know more after Saturday.
3. Samford - Good OOC road win. Offense looks formidable.
4. Mercer - 1 point loss to the current leader. And I'm a homer. So suck it.
5. Furman - 5 point loss to the current leader, hence just behind the 1 point loss to the current leader team. Saturday will reveal quite a bit
6. Wofford - shut down TTU team that drilled Austin Peay. Just a gut ranking for me here. Prolly won't know until Oct 1.
7. WCU - No idea and prolly won't know until Oct. 1
8. VMI - Surprised they stuggled with Morehead. Will know more Oct 1.
9. ETSU - KSU win was shocking after 40 point loss last year and being a 26 point underdog. But this is their default spot until I see something in a conference game.
It also occurs to me that Oct. 1 is going to be a big fun weekend in the SoCon.
WCU vs ETSU (@ Bristol) - Cats roll in front of a zillion empty seats. Maybe a bunch of people will turn up thinking there's a race.
Chatt @ Furman - UPSET SPECIAL - The
Paladins bite, scratch, and claw their way to some kind of ugly win. Low scoring affair.
TTU @ Mercer - I'll never pick against the Bears. (See #4 above) Mercer wins. MAUL 'EM!
The Citadel @ Gardner-Webb - Bulldogs win by a bunch. The ones with the luggage.
Johnson C. Smith @ Wofford - Mr. Smith Goes To The Woodshed. RatDogs roll.
