SAC Football Week 10 Roundup

Week 10 of SAC football is in the books, leaving just one Saturday of games left to determine the conference championship. Get a recap of all of this week's action here.

Lenoir-Rhyne and Mars Hill are currently tied atop the SAC at 5-1, and can each clinch at least a share of the league title with a win next weekend. Wingate is still alive as well, although it must win next week and hope that both L-R and MHC lose, which would create three-way tie for the SAC championship.
