That's awesome!

And there you go....

Once again, Gillin and company knock it out of the park.

The game against Texas A&M provides nothing more than a pay check, 99.9% of the time. At any rate, with a home game against UNC in 2022, will make for a long offseason after 2021.

Home - North Carolina, Akron
Away - Marshall, Texas A&M

I'm assuming the A&M game will be scheduled for September 10th?

I'm not sure that I understand the desire for this game. I believe a H/H with a G5 such as Houston would provide an in for the Texas market as well as a solid home game. The game against Texas A&M provides nothing more than a pay check, 99.9% of the time.

We have to have money games. This is a very good money game.

There are home and homes in the works that will be good as well.

These two things are not mutually exclusive.

Nice! That is definitely a stadium/atmosphere I have wanted to see in person.

Yes, and we're no longer listing Akron: http://www.appstatesports.com/news/2018 ... as-am.aspx

And I'm with you - it's a paycheck, and likely a large one. Otherwise this one doesn't do much for me. Maybe Jimbo will flame out and A&M will be beatable.

With two P5s on one schedule we have another opportunity to capitalize on a better strength of schedule than most years and get ranked, similar to 2016 (UT & UM) and 2017 (UGA & WF).

It’s a winnable game in a fertile recruiting ground and a novel matchup that I haven’t seen or conceived of before.

This is more exciting to me than the Clemson announcement, but not as much as any P5 or compelling G5 matchup at KBS.

A&M fans on reddit have had some funny reactions so far:

"Well lets just chalk it up as a L until it happens"

"Kill me now"

"Michigan fans, any advice for playing these guys?"
(in response) "As a Tennessee fan, I will be eternally grateful to Michigan for losing to App State. If they hadn't, people would probably remember App State taking #9 Tennessee to overtime in 2016"

So when are we playing Akron now? Is that game cancelled?

And that paycheck is of the utmost importance to this program.

Eric - shutup.

This is a bucket list stadium, if you get a chance to play at the horseshoe, big house, rose bowl, home of the 12th man, etc. you do it.

Great job Doug and Co.

[Boone Goon]

Already making plans to go to this one!!!

Friday night yell is supposed to be an awesome experience. Can’t wait!

On the other thread I had said I wanted: 1) marque stadium or 2) drivable. This is most definitely a marque stadium/program.

Not mentioned in the release: a $1,500,000 payout, by far the largest in our history.

[Stonewall]

Any body.Any time. Any where.

Wow! Now that's a paycheck! Glad to see somebody new on the schedule. It's a historic place and will give us some great pub. This one os a really nice get.

Anybody know what the difference in traveling costs, say to Wake Forest vs Texas A&M would be? Not factoring in possible payouts, just costs. And the number traveling?

[SpeedkingATL]

Another bucket list stadium road trip. Should be fun! Certainly can't hurt recruiting.
