Nice of Sammy to get their entire fanbase in that pic. The couple on the right epitomize a snobby private school.

However they should win this game.

Good luck! . . . I'm picking The Vermin as my **Playoff Surprise* team this year.

Just don't beat Appalachian to do it

In the FCS Huddle: Sports Network Week 1 Preview

Furman Paladins (0-0) at Samford Bulldogs (0-0), 4:30 p.m. (Charter/CSN Sport Southeast)

Series record: Furman leads, 8-6

Last meeting: Samford 26, Furman 21 (Oct. 8. 2011)

What to know: Last year, Samford snapped a seven-game series losing streak to capture its first victory over Furman since 1969. The Bulldogs finished in the middle of the conference with a record of 4-4. Running back Fabian Truss and fellow junior wide receiver Kelsey Pope played exceptionally as sophomores last year.

First and foremost, both teams will have to replace experienced quarterbacks that had a large part in their success. Samford lost Dustin Taliaferro (2,301 yards, 14 TD) while Furman lost Chris Forcier (2,265 yards, 23 TD). Both losses hurt equally because each team is trying to progress with a steady signal- caller.

The Paladins have only kicked off the season versus a Southern Conference foe once since 1975. In coach Bruce Fowler's first season, Furman won games against Wofford, Appalachian State and Chattanooga, but lost critical home games versus Samford and Elon. The Bulldogs added Memphis transfer Andy Summerlin, who was 45-of-94 for 469 yards in five games for the Tigers, including two starts.

It's a high-risk, high-reward scenario in Week 1 and that's what SoCon football is all about.

Prediction: Furman 26, Samford 21

It'll be close. Furman wins by a field goal or less.
