A looooongg time ago but the Wofford game in 2008 on Halloween was a hot start.
If I recall the Halloween game correctly, we were down 14-0 and then Armanti took over. Just sayin.
App traded TD's with Wofford until pulling away big time in the second quarter.
I’ve been to a lot of App games but that will forever be among my favorite. KBS was as rowdy as I can ever remember it being.

Celebrating All Saints Day 2008 by teaching the Terriers a Sunday School lesson was delightful.

All Saints Day is the day after Halloween aka All Hallows Eve. Just sayin.

I remember they gave out tshirts at the game. I still have mine. In somewhat of an omniscient slant, it said: App vs Wofford - Let the terror begin.

No pun intended?

I'm ready to see App curb stomp somebody. This would be a good week for it.

Listened to Josh Thomas on BGP this morning, great addition to the commentary. Also had the voice of USA on as a guest. Sounds like their dline is smaller than we've seen in the past. They used to be the heaviest in the conference.

I'm not sure about curb stomping, but I think App wins convincingly. USA has some offensive weapons, but their defense is incredibly suspect. Considering App but 21 on a quite good ECU defense, they should have no trouble scoring against South Bama.

Not sure curb stomping given short week to prepare and they had full week.
Be a nice surprise if it does occur.

Just get a win and rest up for Liberty. This has been a tough stretch for the team.

It’s always a good week for a curb stomping. I, for one, enjoy boring victories.

I'd be content with a comfortable win (2 tds or better) and crisp looking play on the field. CRISP meaning clean up the balls thrown up for grabs last week (2 INT drops by the ECU D that could have changed the game), consistent running of the football, etc. I think we win, but I don't see a blowout.

My lingering question from last year or the year before is- who is the last good team we “curb stomped”? Not sure exactly what the exact number is in terms of margin but those games have been few and far between. Would be a great question for folks. I’d lean toward beating a conference foe who is an above .500 team by 3 TD’s while dominating on defense. I don’t really expect many of those Wofford type games. If I recall they were still pretty decent that year?

GA State and Marshall last year fit that category of dominating defense + 3 TD win. Maybe Ga Southern as well but defense didn't dominate the first half. We dominated the score though by almost 30.

Only one small detail- State was 6-6 and the other 2 sub .500 so by my criteria only one of those games barely makes curb stomp territory.

If coming up for game and want to try a new food option. Daughter and I tried the new taco place on King Street (across the street from mellow mushroom)..Taco Boone
Although limited menu, it was pretty good.
