The GSC showed up in their road games this past weekend and showed out with big wins!
Delta State, West Florida, and West Georgia all traveled to higher seeds from other conferences and beat them at home. Pretty impressive.
The Statesmen went up big and then saw a flourish of the highly-touted Bowie State offense who came back to lead the game. DSU got enough offense going to finish out the battle with a 10-point win. West Georgia overcame a couple of turnovers and looked very good against CIAA Champs Virginia State handing them their first defeat of the year by 26 points while West Florida went up to North Carolina and shut out the SAC Champions, defeating Wingate 31-0 and secured their first playoff win ever.
These victories really validate the decision of the committee to put four Gulf South teams into the playoffs and could potentially help the GSC in future years if similar situations happen.
Here we go again.Can I come over and play?But, they have an advantage!
My pick: West Georgia by 4
So We Meet Again
My pick: Tigers by 7
