This week's Purple & Gold football picks (9-8-18)





It's week #2 in the SoCon, and time to pick Saturday's games.

This week, we have 2 conference games and four out-of-conference games.





Chattanooga (1-0, 0-0 Southern) at The Citadel (0-1, 0-1 Southern)
The home-standing Bulldogs use that home-field advantage for a four-point win over a disappointed Mocs team.  Final score 21-17 Bulldogs

VMI (0-1, 0-0 Southern) at Wofford (1-0, 1-0 Southern)
The Terriers continue their homestand, as well as, their winning streak as they roll over the visiting Keydets.  Final score 35-14 Terriers

ETSU (1-0) at Tennessee (0-1)
The Bucs travel to Knoxville, take a lickin', pick up a check and return to Johnson City, a little embarrassed at the final score.  Final score 49-7 Vols

Furman (0-1) at Elon (0-1)
The Paladins want to avoid that 0-2 start at all costs as they travel to visit Elon and remember last season's 3 point loss on the road. The Paladins get a little revenge.  Final score 28-24 Furman

Jacksonville (1-0) at Mercer (0-1)
The Bears open their home schedule hoping to gain back a little respect after last week's bashing at the hands of the Memphis Tigers. The Bears succeed as they roll over the Dolphins. Final score 35-7

Samford (1-0) at Florida State (0-1)
The Bulldogs get the same feeling as the Dolphins, as they pick up a much larger check on their way back home to Homewood.  Final score 42-14
