Remember Appalachian State?

[Mick Belker]

-They are on ESPN tonight.
-They host South Alabama.
-They are gettin' their ass kicked.
-The 'Boo-birds' are out in Boone.
-The highlight of this event was the student mud slide onto the field.
-28-7 halftime, with a last second App St TD pass.
-Hard to watch such a storied program fall to this depth.
**FBS since 2014.

They've done pretty damn well previous years.

 

[Griz Addict]

Also South Alabama seems to be pretty dang good this year.

 

[EverettGriz]

Uhhh, they've had pretty damn good success at the FBS level. Makes me jealous.


That said, boy I can't wait for our annual matchups with mercyhurst, Morehead and central Washington.

 

[Mick Belker]

Four min into 3rd, 34-7, getting chippy, announcers term, and mine.
App St failing at arm tackling.

And it’s gotta them where? Bowl games? Ain’t nobody care about that

That's a tough loss for the Moutaineers.

Hey, I remember one year when The Griz were up like 24 to 7 against some nobody cares about team, and got absolutely boat raced in the 2nd half of the game and lost...

Uhhhhh, far more people care about bowl games than a mythical fcs "national" championship.

Look, we love the fcs playoffs. But we need to realize what they are: single A level. We love em; no one else even knows they exist. It's like Eugene vs Lethbridge in A baseball. Cool for those involved. Absolutely meaningless for anyone else

Who cares what everyone else thinks? How would that impact your enjoyment of watching your team win it all?

Are you even old enough to have lived such enjoyment?

 

[get'em_griz]

App State has been very good since they moved up to the FBS. They beat #6 Texas A&M just 2 years ago...

And now we just hear about it.

And now we just hear about it.

Have you been living under a rock?

 

[Mick Belker]

The game is on ESPS-U for those who 'missed' it last night. The only thing missing is last night's shock factor.

Certainly NOT mythical...

The championship is earned by clawing through the bracket...

FBS had a mythical "national championship" until just a few years ago.

Doesn't take away from your larger point.

Clawing through a bunch of teams that 99% of the world never heard of.
