Furman football heads to Orlando this weekend

furmanFacing the toughest season opening three-game slate in its 33-year history as a member of the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), Furman will look to break thru into the win column this Saturday when it tackles the Central Florida Knights in a 6:04 p.m. contest at Bright House Networks Stadium in Orlando, Fla. Coverage will begin Saturday on 101.7 WGOG and the Furman IMG Sports Network with the Paladin Pre-Game Show at 5:00 PM.

The Paladins (0-2), dropped a season opening, 38-35 verdict to Coastal Carolina, who are currently ranked No. 1 in this week’s FCS Coaches Poll, and were overwhelmed, 42-3, last Saturday at Virginia Tech, and will attempt to scratch in the win column against the Knights (0-2), who have also struggled in the season’s first games.
