Send the pic of our snow covered field and current temp. to Lafayette and ULaLA might not show up.
Oh, we'll be there cupcake. Plenty of us will be there. And it's Louisiana, but you already knew that. I always found it funny that a little FCS call up fanbase thought they could disrespect it's new conference mates with the name BS. (Especially since our media guys go out of their way to pronounce your name properly, when most of the country still doesn't care enough to get it right.)
Keep whining about your precious Rock. Keep whining about what the endzones will look like. It won't matter much, because we'll be the only ones seeing the endzones. I've been reading this board (while waiting an hour between each post) and laughing my ass off. When we visited Boone, I was impressed by your fans. Very polite and welcoming. I came away thinking you people were a respectable bunch. But after 5 minutes on this board, I quickly realized I was mistaken. I guess the App St dork society is a bit different than the real life fans we met at the stadium.
GEAUX CAJUNS! Beat Appalaychan State, FCS' finest!!
You mean the FCS team that made it to the top 25 before y'all have ever even sniffed it? App is LaLa's daddy, and therefore can name him whatever we please.
Someone mentioned this was the best App St team ever.. If that's the case, I question how good you guys have really been. I wasn't impressed with App St at all, and I watched every down in person. No where near a top 25 team, as Ga Southern proved on national TV.
FTR, I thought last year was the best team you've fielded since being called up. JMO
Everyone's entitled to an opinion, but I don't think you'll get many to agree with you on last year's team being better than this year's. App sputtered through a big chunk of our games (injuries were a problem but still) losing to both UMass and ULM. No doubt that, from a perspective of the App v Cajun games, last year's team looked like more of a power house. The last 4 games is when we finally got some things rolling and they did look good. Just remember how bad last year's version of the Cajuns was playing. By your own assertion, they had given up and didn't want to be there. Hudspeth sucked and didn't have the team prepared. Napier has done a great job of getting things headed back in the right direction, but 6 weeks ago you played us one week after we lost our superstar RB and the week before we played our arch-rival on a short week's prep.
App played an incredibly conservative game last time for the reasons stated above. UL has a dangerous offense, so we played the clock management strategy. Our passing game was "off" and you still couldn't stop us. Kudos to the much maligned Cajun DBs for choosing that game to step up and play good physical ball. It seemed to be the turning point for that unit.
I don't think Saturday is a formality, but if App loses, it's a huge upset. Eyes on the prize. By the way, I don't expect ANY Louisiana fan (or player) to concede before the game is played. Teams / fans like that are pathetic, and Louisiana is not pathetic in 2018 (2017 game was). I expect a good game, but I also expect App to cover on this one.
