I'm reminded of a comment my wife made last year as we were walking out after the crazy UNC game. She said "that was a good game". I said it was a terrible game but entertaining to watch. Yesterday was entertaining if nothing else. We might have some Big12 type games in the last month.

They may have this past week given their half a dozen turnovers but I look for them to bring it Saturday.If we can hang on to the ball we can out score them...I think.It is a rivalry game , anything can happen I suppose.

A friend, that goes to all of the App games with me, and I have a saying about this team. " We always get our entertainment dollars worth". The game doesn't always go our way but they are never boring. ESPN needs to be playing this up. They could really build the SBC right now. The whole league is putting up great games.

It has been a long time in which I went to an App game and was sure of the outcome after the first half.

I used to kind of hate those games where we led by 3-4 scores at the half because I knew the second half would consist of nothing but up the gut runs, vanilla or play calls, not running up the score and lots of substitutions (great for those guys but boring). I'd take one of those App ass kickings now. While games are certainly not boring they are bad for the heart.

Run the score up, playing not to lose is playing to lose. 9/24/22 Dukes 3/Mountaineers 28, Final Score Dukes 32/Mountaineers 28. Most painful game ever watched at Kidd Brewer. I'm ready for a boring game also.

Villanova hurt me personally as I grew up close to the university and bragged about App State football for years only to lose at home ...... Villanova football is JV in Philly.

Their star player ended up playing baseball and we couldn't stop him at all... so sad
