PREDICTED ORDER OF FINISH
1) Georgia Southern 11-3, 7-1; lost in semifinals of playoffs
Platform: The defending SoCon champs have loads of team speed on both sides of the ball, and the schedule works in their favor with App State and Wofford visiting Statesboro. After losing the past two years in the playoff semis, this could be the year the Eagles break through.
2) Wofford 8-4, 6-2; reached the FCS playoffs
Platform: The Terriers may have the best team in the league, but it’s hard to see them beating both Georgia Southern and Appalachian State on the road. If they win the SoCon, they definitely will have earned it.
3) Appalachian State 8-4, 6-2; reached the FCS playoffs
