    Furman on one of the most impressive runs in recent memory if not EVER
    Playing in the Southern Conference tourney tomorrow vs Wofford.

    This is a bottom 50 team with only 6 regular season wins against D1 opponents all year. They have won 3 in a row in the conference tourney.

    THEY HAVE NOT WON 3 GAMES IN A ROW AGAINST D1 OPPONENTS SINCE FEB 2011...

    IF THEY WERE TO WIN TOMORROW v WOFFORD THEY WOULD BE THE WORST TEAM TO MAKE THE TOURNAMENT IN AT LEAST 15 YEARS (which is as far back as the data I am using goes). TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THEY WOULD BE AMONG THE WORST TEAMS EVER TO MAKE THE TOURNAMENT

    I cannot remember a team this bad making such an impressive run at the end of the year.

    While I think Wofford will (and should) beat the hell out of them, I am rooting for them. This is crazy.

        Mercer blew a 38-27 lead with about 13 minutes to go today. Cost be $215. I figured Furman only had one upset in them. Didnt think they could get two in a row.

        I'm going huge on Wofford. Furman is still garbage. Somehow Mercer managed to shoot 28% for the game tonight and lost.

          Is that a thing? Or a person? Brandy is badass. I think.

          I once went to some hipster ass restaurant that served "Jellyfish Slaw". It was weird. It appears they still serve it.

          Yeah I am also thinking about loading up on Wofford. Line will be steep because Wofford is way better than any other team in the Southern. There run thus far has been, well, as mentioned, unprecedentedly improbable.

          Sucks about your $215. You made the right call. It sums up why betting college basketball is such a nightmare.

            Did some research.

            Only teams this bad ever to make the tournament have been the 94/95 FIU Panthers & the 98/99 Florida A&M Rattlers.

            Hard to tell which teams are worse. Both teams won more D1 regular season games than Furman. A&M came out of the abysmal MEAC so they are probably the worst team ever.

            Would love to see Furman as a 16 seed at +40 vs Kentucky.

            I guess they would have to survive the play-in game which seems rather unlikely. Both teams mentioned above made it prior to the introduction of the 68 team field.

                This is insane. They have gone back and fourth with Wofford for 20 minutes. Was not expecting that.

                YOU CAN DO IT FURMAN

                  Furman hasn't been a relevant like this since he planted the bloody glove on OJ.

                              Wofford has to cover this. Furman shoot out their asses the whole game. They are down 52-47 and that is with making 7-10 threes.

                                Thru 75% of the game.

                                Furman:

                                FGs - 60% (21-35)
                                3pts - 75% (9-12)
                                FTs - 88% (7-8)

                                Not sure how a team as bad as Furman can play this well.

                                And thats with Furman's best player getting hurt and not even playing for most of the game.

                                      Im looking for different things in my basketball than my porn.

                                      A good story is much more valuable in one than the other.

                                        Does South Carolina have good schools?

                                        Were talking about the first state to secede from the Union here guys.

                                              If Wofford misses a 1-1 here, Furman should go for the 3 and the win.

                                                  Furman is probably screwed. Down 3. Wofford will foul them and wont let them shoot a 3
