Southern Conference
The Southern Conference is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first postseason college basketball tournament (1921), to tackling the issue of freshman eligibility (1922), to developing women's championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the 3-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer.www.soconsports.com

Maurice DraytonGUEST
The good thing is everything that we want is still in front of us.
Maurice DraytonGUEST
Our league, the Southern Conference, is a tough league, and we cannibalize ourselves.
Maurice DraytonGUEST
It would be very hard for a Southern Conference opponent to go through this league undefeated.
Maurice DraytonGUEST
So we just got to worry about the task in front of us, handle that task, and keep moving, and then everything else will handle itself.
Brian GiffenHOST
All right, well, right here we will take a break.
10 MINS LATER
Lucas FerreiraGUEST
And, you know, there's those G6 schools too, but we'll
Brian GiffenHOST
see.
Brian GiffenHOST
How much do you guys collaborate with other programs around the conference? Obviously, I mean, back during the Southern Conference baseball tournament, you were up there working, you know, a camera position on the television production that they did from the tournament up there.
Nathan McCrearyHOST
Running back Ben Crosdale bolted for a 47-yard game-winning touchdown with 47 seconds remaining to lift Furman 20 to 13 upset over number 14 Mercer at Five Star Stadium.
Nathan McCrearyHOST
The win snapped Mercer's 11, excuse me, 12 game Southern conference win streak.
Nathan McCrearyHOST
And, uh, they were, it was, it was, uh, Furman trailing 13-10 in the fourth quarter.
Nathan McCrearyHOST
They tied the game in a 43-yard field goal by Nathan Chapman with 4:53 left, setting up that Joshua Travers 42-yard punt return after forcing a Mercer punt.
Gerald HodgesGUEST
And it's a large room right now, and they do want to keep them together because, you know, the – Sunbelt, it follows the SEC protocols on the officiating.
Gerald HodgesGUEST
In fact, that's where we get a lot of our younger officials up through the Sunbelt and the SOCON.
Gerald HodgesGUEST
But I think at some point that I could foresee it happening.
John WilkersonHOST
So as we saw Tennessee accumulate 14 penalties in its performance at Georgia Tech, there was one stretch where it was particularly punished, and that was it's the live ball foul along with a dead ball foul, and that's where you can wind up with a 10- or 15-yard penalty that gets also followed by, in this instance, it was half the distance to the goal because of the chunk that came before it, but you can wind up with two penalties enforced on the same play, right?
Blake ThorntonHOST
I'm not trying to put them down.
Blake ThorntonHOST
I'm just saying when you- that is the difference between, you know, Southern Conference and Big 12.
Blake ThorntonHOST
We saw it on the field, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Blake ThorntonHOST
S- I'm not, it's not bashing.
Anthony PagnottaHOST
Not bad.
Anthony PagnottaHOST
They were picked to finish third in the SOCON in the preseason poll.
Anthony PagnottaHOST
I got to be honest, I don't really know a lot about Campbell, so I can't tell you if that was a damaging loss or not to those thoughts.
Anthony PagnottaHOST
But one thing that I did find interesting about Will Healy's group, which is a name that you should know if you're in the local area.
Zach McKinnellHOST
Gotta be.
Zach McKinnellHOST
We can't play offense in the Southern Conference.
Zach McKinnellHOST
If you were a fan of offensive football, this was a thing of nightmares for you.
Zach McKinnellHOST
Jalen King throws four interceptions.
Steve WestHOST
They used to be in the Transamerica Conference.
Steve WestHOST
I think they're in the Big South or the Southern Conference now.
Steve WestHOST
That's what I know about Campbell.
Buck BelueHOST
I know something about Florida as far as the new offensive coordinator, the quarterback, really high on both of those guys.
Hunter BaileyGUEST
But the second half, dude, the Citadel just made ridiculous adjustments, I guess.
Hunter BaileyGUEST
They had a SOCON Player of the Year quarterback, this guy.
Hunter BaileyGUEST
uh, Quinton, I can't think blank on his last name right now.
Hunter BaileyGUEST
He exits the game with an injury.
Colby DantHOST
He's invited us up there a bunch.
Colby DantHOST
I actually thought this could be their year to get the SoCon.
Colby DantHOST
After watching that game, now I get it, Campbell's not in the SOCON, but I'm out on Western Carolina.
Colby DantHOST
Campbell, I actually think, might be a player with the six-killer kid.
47 MINS LATER
Colby DantHOST
Lay the 34.5.
Colby DantHOST
This one hasn't moved, by the way, so there's that.
Colby DantHOST
Next up, we jump over to a great matchup there in the SoCon.
Colby DantHOST
Historically, it goes back to 1914.
Ron JacksonHOST
You know, I, I'm looking at it another way.
Ron JacksonHOST
Uh, it kind of fires up the, uh, Southern Conference.
Ron JacksonHOST
So tho- those guys have, uh, competing territories.
Ron JacksonHOST
I mean, uh, Tennessee Tech's in middle Tennessee.
