Good. It takes them off the SoCon radar, and we have a bruiser of a schedule ourselves.

Now what to do about Elon, Appy, Woffy, and Sammy?

I believe Presbyterian is not D-1 (correct me if I am wrong) so that means Furman needs 7 wins in 8 games to qualify for a possible playoff birth. Very tough! Sorry Paladin fans, I don't mean to say that Missouri or Auburn aren't winnable games but I am going with the odds here.

Presbyterian is DI. They're a transitional team that should be playoff eligible in 2011 I believe.

PC is D1 now I think. Wofford also has two FBS games in 2009 South Florida and Wisconsin.

I would call Mizzou "winnable," though it would take quite a bit to pull off.

Auburn is not only "no," but "[bleep] no."

Yes , Wofford is playing both these schools. Times are lean in Spartanburg so we are trying to do whatever we can to make some extra Johnny (Cash) :D .
