Our Southern Conference Wofford will be the last of our 258 great Value Add Basketball Game teams to debut, taking on Colonial Athletic Assocation all-time champ UNC Wilmington.
We pick the best all-time team for each conference based on
the teams in the conference NOW but then picking the best of any of those
schools of all time evern if it was before they were in the conference.
Almost all the great southern teams were once in the
Southern Conference, including Alabama
and nine other SEC schools, Duke and seven other ACC schools.
Alabama was in the Southern Conference when they travelled
to the Rose Bowl in 1926 and rallied for 20 points in the 3rd quarter to stun
Washington 20-19 for their first national title.
The first football game I ever saw was as a small child when
I watched Lou Holtz coach Davidson in their Southern Conference at William and
Mary, who would later play their rival Richmond.
Davidson left in 1988 and Richmond and William and Mary a
decade earlier - with the first two now in the Atlantic 10 and William and Mary
with today's opponent for Wofford - UNC Wilmington in the CAA.
Here is the Wofford 2019 player cards.
