In a game that will probably knock the loser out of contention for an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, the Bears travel to Spartanburg to meet the Terriers. With identical 2-2 conference records, this is a critical game for both teams. The Terriers once again win hat home, 27-14 over the Bears.

With both teams looking for their second conference win of the season, the Paladins travel Lexington to face the Keydets of VMI. In a hard fought battle, the home field advantage tips the scale for the Keydets, as VMI picks up a 7 point victory, 21-14 over Furman.
ETSU (3-4, 1-4 Southern) at The Citadel (7-0, 5-0 Southern) 2:00 pm - Watch on ESPN3
The Bulldogs continue their winning ways this weekend as the Bucs make their first visit to Charleston since rejoining the Southern Conference. Look for a 21 point win by the Citadel, 35-14

The #8 nationally ranked Mocs visit Cullowhee on Saturday, just in time for Homecoming. It's been a while since the Catamounts have beaten a top 10 ranked foe, and unfortunately, that streak does not change this weekend. The Mocs stay on course in their streak of wins over the Cats, taking home a 35-21 win over Western.
