This week's Purple & Gold football picks (10-20-18)




It's week #8 in the SoCon, and time to pick this weeks' games.

This week, we have 5 games scheduled, 4 conference games and 1 non-conference game for Saturday









Saturday, 10-20-18

The Citadel (1-4, 1-3 SoCon)  at  VMI (0-6, 0-5 SoCon) 1:30 pm ESPN3
The Bulldogs travel to Lexington for the military football classic game. The Keydets are hoping to make their season with this one game win, but, unfortunately, their losing streak does not end this week. Bulldogs win, 35 - 28.


ETSU (6-1, 4-0 SoCon)  at  Wofford (4-2, 3-1 SoCon) 1:30 pm ESPN+
The Bucs travel to Sparkle City hoping to hold on to first place in the conference race. This is the game that shows us which team is the pretender. In the end, the dogs come out the winner, 31 - 21.


Samford (3-4, 2-2 SoCon)  at  Furman (2-3, 2-1 SoCon) 2:00 pm ESPN+
The Bulldogs are in Traveler's Rest this weekend, hoping to continue their 2 game win streak, and add another conference game loss to Furman's record. Home field advantage plays a big role in this game, as the Paladins pull out a close win, 28 - 24 over the Bulldogs.


Western Carolina (3-3, 1-3 SoCon)  at  Mercer (3-3, 2-1 SoCon) 4:00 pm ESPN+
The Cats are in Macon this weekend, where the Cats are 1-1 in games against the Bears. While the Bears are a 3 point favorite against Western, the Cats finally put an entire game together, and upset Mercer by a final score of 35-28.
