GREENVILLE, S.C. — The Palmetto State has its share of top-notch
football teams at the FCS level.
While the attention of most college football fans in the state will be centered on Saturday's matchup between No. 6 Clemson and No. 10 South Carolina, three state schools — Coastal Carolina, Furman and South Carolina State — will be playing in the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.
The South Carolina trio are the most of any state in the country.
"I think it's pretty remarkable for a state our size to have that representation," Furman coach Bruce Fowler said.
And at least one South Carolina entry will be moving into the round of 16: Fowler's Southern Conference co-champion Paladins (7-5) play at South Carolina State (9-3), which tied the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference crown this season.
