11 Points...*sigh*

Well, I'm super bummed about the lost this weekend. This one hurts big since it was a SunBelt game. I've seen a lot of social media, message board, Twitter, etc. posts about this being a "bad team." We have lost our 3 games by a total of 11 points. 1 pt loss to Wake 3 pt loss to UMass 7 pt loss to U...

Re: '17 APP Football - IF WE KNEW THEN WHAT WE KNOW NOW ---

I wouldn't have expected that Stringer's absence would hurt us more than Meador's absence but I believe Stringer being out has hurt us more than just about any other single player. I still think we are capable of winning the last three games but having him back on D would be a HUGE lift! I totally ...

Re: Thursday night Gumroots

Man! Who wouldn't want to come up to the Boone on an electric Thursday night against our biggest rival with an almost guaranteed crispness to the air?!!!

I've been in the stands for each game and they have all been exciting (except for Savannah St).

Come on App Nation!

But first, BEAT 'MON-ROE!

We may not have a killer instinct, but...

We seem to have a lot of belief and just flat out find a way to win. I feel like for one reason or another (ie- youth, injuries, *gulp* a bad call or two) we aren't quite playing to our ability. And, so far, that's okay. We're 5-2, right were we all thought we would be (if we're being honest). This ...

I also felt like it was quieter. Maybe some of the students will help to self police it. I love Appalachian, I want the Rock to ROCK, but let's not sink to childish vulgar language...to me that's like saying a comedian is hilarious just because they can use the F word with good timing...it's like a ...

I am honored to be in class of BS 1967 and MA 68. It is great to be a Mountaineer!!!!!!!!! My dad was on the field before the game too - class of 67! Go App! He's got an "ASU" degree, not App Teachers College. I thought 66 was the last year for being a teachers college. Was that announced incorrect...

Re: Student section Yelling "You Suck @ssholes" on kickoffs - PLEASE STOP

No one thinks saying "asshole" is all that bad in and of itself, but the chant contributes to and shapes our game day culture. Georgia Southern didn't just wake up one day and become the ECU of Georgia. These things snowball over time and I would hate to be like either of those schools. The chant i...

Re: Student section Yelling "You Suck @ssholes" on kickoffs - PLEASE STOP

I’d rather have them chant this every game than to have a single student thrown out for doing so. They don’t even bleep out “ass” on tv. Y’all need to chill out. I think there's a big difference between "@ss" and "@ssholes" Maybe they flash up "BOOM, LET'S GO APP STATE!" and if that turns into Boom...

Student section Yelling "You Suck @ssholes" on kickoffs - PLEASE STOP

Seriously. This is the crap that kills a good brand. I feel like we have a good brand of "you don't want to play there because it's loud and their fans are engaged as the 12th man." It seems like a lot of teams that come to App want to try to take us out of the game early. This is GOOD! What we don'...

I think we found our identity (positive)

I like most on here are SUPER bummed about the outcome of the game Saturday. In such a close game, 2-3 plays caused us to lose by 1 vs winning by 7-10+. The past is the past. We can't change it now. What I'm most excited about is that we seemed to have found our identity against a good (probably not...

Re: FromWSJ

That article was hard to follow. Sounds like this one fan cost us the game (not). I don't feel like Wake really "came alive" in the second half. We pretty much bottled them up all day, they just made a few plays when they needed to and we made a few mistakes that really cost us.

Re: N Mex St

If you'd asked me Saturday night, I would have a different answer, but I think we got our mojo back. If not for a few mental mistakes, we beat wake by 7-10 points. I think we've got that chip on our shoulder back. I also think it's time to throw to set up the run. Our offense looked as good as they ...

Re: Rubino concern

Being a kicker is like being a goalie in soccer. Make the big play, you're the hero, don't make the big play, you're a loser. I honestly think Rubino is fine. He's a freakin' sophomore!!! That kid has been put in so many big situations in his short career. I really wish our line could have held wake...

Re: IT'S THE WAKE FOREST GAME ---

Wolford is average at best. He hasn't played a good defense yet. I think his WRs are MUCH better at getting separation than he is an amazing QB. He's honestly a lot like Lamb, he's not going to kill you like AE would, but he can beat you with his feet and get the ball to playmakers. This is the best...
