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

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.

Tight game that will come down to turnovers. Wofford is just a lil better and wins by 2

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.
