Ah… the Triple-Option National Championship Game. Whoever can best execute the devil's offense will likely earn a relaxing, all-expenses paid vacation to… well, they'll have to go to Alabama. The Citadel did win the first meeting, but that result was fluky in some ways. Wofford outrushed the Bulldogs by more than 100 yards and it was actually 3 lost fumbles did them in. Despite that, however, the Terriers have the better turnover margin on the year. They also have noticeably better run defense and perhaps the best special teams in the nation, which actually makes me favor them to win this week's rematch in Charleston. The Citadel has shown a real knack for winning close games this year, though, so it's basically a coin flip.

Here's my assessment of the matchups & my pick for the game:

• • • Quarterbacks -- (push)
      
      Running Backs - The Citadel
      
      Receivers/TEs - Wofford
      
      Offensive Line - The Citadel
      
      
      Defensive Line - Wofford
      
      Linebackers --- The Citadel
      
      Secondary ---- (push)
      
      
      Kicking ------ Wofford
      
      Punting ------ Wofford
      
      Return Teams - (push)

Just because they're overweight doesn't mean they're bad. This message board takes a strong stance against fat shaming!

Being overweight in football in no way implies fat. As far as being bad, the game speaks for itself.

Wofford won 17-3.
