Sunday, Feb 23 – Atlanta at Greenville (3:05 PM EST)

Key Implication: A win for Atlanta might provide the needed push to continue to climb up the ranks, while an upset by Greenville could trigger a turnaround and significantly shake up the south division dynamics as teams vie for every available point.
