1R - Elon @ Wofford

Post by Mvemjsunpx »

Elon was a playoff-caliber team the first half of the year, but they aren't now. They've survived the Malcolm Summers injury thanks to the stellar play of RB Jaylan Thomas (7.3 ypc). Their passing game, however, has gone to hell since QB Davis Cheek went down (both replacement QBs are completing 41-42% of their passes). The Phoenix D is somewhat better than Wofford's, but the Terrier D shouldn't have any trouble with an Elon offense that is now totally one-dimensional.

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


      • Quarterbacks -- Wofford

        Running Backs - Wofford

        Receivers/TEs - Elon

        Offensive Line - Wofford


        Defensive Line - Elon

        Linebackers --- (push)

        Secondary ---- Elon


        Kicking ------ Elon

        Punting ------ Wofford

        Return Teams - (push)

        Kickoffs ------ Wofford





        • Elon 13-28 Wofford

Wofford - I don't think Elon earned a spot in this year's playoff.

Elon didn’t impress me at all. I have no idea how they remained so highly ranked. Wofford, big.

Elon is now favored on 5dimes, so now's the time to bet hard if you're adventurous enough to have money in that site.

ESPN3, although it is pretty well decided.
