I get the sense from the players that they are feeling a heavy dose of disrespect and looking forward to proving themselves. I think the love fest over Coastal and ULLLLLLL is adding some extra juice as well. Excited to watch these guys!

GO APPS!!

Just three G5 programs, two of which are in the Sunbelt. That seem good.

Quick look had the U at 16th in the poll.

To be fair, LaLa deserves it. They have been top 25 caliber for more than one fluke, pandemic ridden season. Coastal on the other hand....

And when we have 3 W's over top 25 teams, that only helps our resume for NY6

Which top-10 team will not be ranked at the end of the season? Iowa State; UNC, maybe?

My point is that the Sun belt has become a pretty good G5 conference. We have two teams ranked. No Memphis or UCF or Bosie State. Like I am legitimately looking forward to the Lousiana Texas game. Something is building in the Belt.

I am not offended that we are 48. I don’t agree with it but understand the logic from voters based on last year and QB situation. I believe we will show we are much better.

I do believe this will be a huge motivator to come out of the gate on fire.

You know replying…”ohhh horse manure” is a lot less to the point when just saying what you feel…”bull shit!!!!”
Coastal’s love from sports writers is unbelievable but I guess APP just needs to do their work on the field!

I kind of think it’s not bad being where we are. We have 3 opponents currently ranked above us. Obviously after we beat Miami we jump big time. We just need Coastal and La to keep climbing until we play. Can’t get added respect by beating dogs ranked way below us. Just win baby

From my perspective, the issue is that there are quite a few teams to jump. For example, if there are 4 G5 teams that all lose their P5 opponent (assuming all.are playing a P5 opponent)..then they all do well in conference, we really have no chance to overtake them unless they are awesome in Sunbelt. However, it is what it is when you 9-3 and do not play a P5 team in 2020. With that said, I am very optimistic about 2021. Let Go App!!.Top 20 by end of 2021.

The only thing that shocks me isUNC ranked 9th. I don’t see it.
