Losses to East Tennessee State, UNC Greensboro and Mercer came next, then a win over VMI. In 27 games that made for a 17-10 record for the Paladins.

In the East Tennessee State rematch on Wednesday the Paladins were all tied up as they left the floor in the first half 34-34. Furman faded from there on a 44-35 deficit and ended up losing on their home court 78-69 as the game finished up.

Furman Paladins @ Wofford Terriers Betting Trends: February 21, 2026

Why the Wofford Terriers will win

  • The home team has won each of Wofford’s last four games.
  • Furman has lost each of its last four night games against non-AP-ranked opponents.

Why the Furman Paladins will win

  • The road team has won three of Furman’s last four games.

Furman vs Wofford Prediction

I’ll lean toward Furman but you could make a case either way. The Paladins had a rough second half in their home loss to a good East Tennessee State team this week, eventually hitting just 35 percent from the field and 18.2 percent (6-of-33) from outside. Furman is just 1-4 in their last five games, scoring fewer than 70 points in three of those losses. The Paladins need a good showing this weekend.

Back on January 17 in the last meeting between these teams, the Paladins took a tough loss 74-70 at home. Furman managed to shoot a decent 43.9 percent from the field in that one but also gave up 50 percent shooting on the other side. The Paladins added a 44-26 deficit on points in the paint and had 12 turnovers to Wofford’s six. Furman really needs to tighten up for the road rematch but I think they’ve got a good shot.

Andrew Jett's Pick: Furman Paladins +1
