Week three and opening weekend in the SAC brought some outstanding football and gives week four something to live up to. More important than football, as week four gets ready to kick off, is the severe weather hitting the southeastern US right now from Hurricane Helene.

The non-conference part of the schedule is now over, and we finally get into cross-divisional play in the SAC. I’m excited for some old SAC rivalries being renewed for the first time since 2021 this week, such as two of the founding members of the conference in Lenoir-Rhyne and Mars Hill.

Everybody has a game under their belts now, but we still don't know much about some of the SAC schools here in 2024. It's also nearly impossible to know how good a team is going to be two weeks into the season....well....unless you've watched defending national champion Harding already.

Opening weekend gave us some fireworks in the SAC, but unfortunately three of the four games were blowouts. Delta State led 10-7 at half before the Statesmen exploded in the 2nd half, winning by 31 at Mars Hill.

Week 0 is here and while there are just four games on the South Atlantic Conference slate this week heading into Labor Day weekend, all four have potential to be excellent appetizers for the weeks ahead. Three of the four matchups are first ever meetings, while one is an in-state rivalry between teams looking to make a big leap in 2024.

We are down to the nitty gritty of the 2023 D2 football season. And while the excitement builds for the conclusion of this phenomenal roller coaster season, it also begins to dawn that the ride to McKinney, Texas is almost over.

We are down to the elite eight in this years D2 football season. Last weekend delivered some nail-biting finishes and some more great football.

Hope everyone had a tremendous Thanksgiving and spent some time with their families. Unfortunately, none of the Thanksgiving NFL games were worthwhile.

The 2023 SAC regular season is now over, but now it’s playoff time. At the moment, my unofficial-non expert pick to win it all is Colorado Mines.

The worst week of the football season is upon us: the last weekend of regular season games.
November 2nd, 2023 8:00am
Plenty of intrigue going on in week ten of the 2023 SAC football season and it promises to be yet again another fantastic week of football. It’s the final week of divisional play, with the conference championship game representatives still undetermined. Reminder:
October 26th, 2023 6:00am
We are winding down the 2023 season, with just three weeks to go. The NCAA released their first regional rankings this past week, with two SAC schools in that original release.
October 18th, 2023 8:00am
How are we in week eight already?!?!?! This season is flying by and there is another excellent weekend of SAC football to look forward to, including the 12th annual “Gladwin Bowl”
October 11th, 2023 8:00am
It is almost about time to start talking about regional rankings and playoffs in D2, and week seven is when we start to see the contenders separate themselves from the pretenders. This week in the SAC, we continue divisional play after an exciting first weekend and break down who is still in the hunt, staying alive like the Bee Gees, living on a prayer like Bon Jovi, and who is already looking at the 2024 season.

Week Six marks the barely-over-the-halfway-point of the 2023 D2 football season and this week in the SAC, we begin divisional play. If you are in need of a reminder or are new to following the conference, here is how the divisions are set up in the SAC.
September 27th, 2023 8:00am
Week four in the SAC turned out to be quite an odd week of games, with a few being closer than expected and a few not. That is one of the many different things that makes D2 college football so different and wonderful.
September 20th, 2023 8:00am
We are already in week four of the college football season. Regional rankings will be here before you know it, along with the annual gripe-fest of playoff snubbage. The second weekend of conference play this week provides us with another great weekend of SAC football.
September 12th, 2023 4:00pm
Week 3 in the SAC brings the beginning of conference play. There should be some very intriguing matchups this week, with three games featuring schools who finished in the top three of their respective division a year ago.
September 6th, 2023 8:00am
Week one of the 2023 regular season did not disappoint. We had several very intriguing matchups and some outstanding performances by players that were not expected to be called upon.
