these two schools sit about 30-some miles apart, furman in greenville and wofford in spartanburg. they have been archrivals for more than 100 years in football and basketball. but tonight, the level of play will be a little more intense than most games. in this spot terriers have a slight edge because of their deeper lineup and tournament draw. while wofford cruised to easy wins over etsu and vmi, furman played a track meet, up-tempo game game against samford on saturday, and followed that with a hard fought overtime win over conference favorite utc last night. to top it off, furman just beat wofford in spartanburg last saturday in the final game of the regular season, by burying a trey with 1 second left in regulation to complete the regular season sweep of their rival. tonight have to believe the terriers are motivated and have a little fresher legs, enough i think to avoid losing to the paladins (still my favorite nickname) for the third time this season.
