Re: High Point in Hickory

High Points net rating was 87. The highest rated Sunbelt team is Marshall at 118. That was a big win. This team is fun to pull for. I hope they can keep having fun.....winning.

Re: At ECU

Worst part of 16 team leagues. Mathematically you should expect to win once every 16 years.

Re: At ECU

I attended the game. The 'feel' in Minges was that App took control in the first 5 minutes and never relinquished it. ECU made a run start of the 2nd but App held them off and killed it out. The Pirate faithful got a little rowdy during their run but settled back down. We were the better team and i...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

They should be mad that Alabama got in...not Miami. Alabama had three losses. By the way...i agree with the CFP......i thought they nailed the selections. Alabama's third loss is to a top 5 team in an extra game that Miami didn't have to play. I can't stand Bama, but they had multiple wins over ran...

Re: Birmingham Bowl

I don't know about the contract, but I do think a lot of work was put in by the SBC and ESPN to make these bowl games happen.

Re: Birmingham Bowl

What if that team is good enough to make the playoff the next year? Womp. Womp. I was specifically thinking about ND when I said an opt-out should include a ban the following year, not the handful of 5-7 schools ahead of us in the APR. You wanna go home and cry because you didn't make the playoffs?...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

It is going to expand to 16 and a 16 team NIT. This is where it is headed. G6 conference champs automatic in the NIT. It will be worded as such.

CFP to rated 16 teams in the country. NIT all conference champs not making the CFP and the next 17-25 ratings.

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

Miami will get in if the ACC champ is left out. I think Alabama is in trouble. They wont leave out Notre Dame.

Re: Let's pile on Gillin!!!!!

As someone limited to TV only for watching the games, my focus would be to ask Gillin to increase the quality of the equipment and watchability. I'm an old(er) head and like hearing DJ and Avery. It's like comfort food. But the wide angles and sometimes blurry picture quality is so noticeable compa...

Re: Let's pile on Gillin!!!!!

This thread has gone off the rails...so...I will take it off the rails some more. If we are going to go into debt we should go into debt and build a medical school. It will be by far our best return on investment and it should happen in Hickory. We could easily replace Wake Forest. We need the facil...

Hoping for receivers that can catch the ball.
I would prefer some receivers that can block....hopefully we go back to a run heavy game.

Re: Let's pile on Gillin!!!!!

Move the APPSTATE singing of the Alma Mater to 30minutes before kickoff instead of hyping up the crowd to destroy it at the last second with the singing of "Cherished Vision" Apps Alma Mater. Or better yet play it at the end of the game by the band.

Let's pile on Gillin!!!!!

With the season over.... I am sure Gillin needs a list of things to work on. No better place than Yosef Cabin members to make him a list. I will start. There is no reason for there not to be a gate/entry before the game at the top of the hill in front of the old Quinn Center to enter the game for fa...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

I have been saying for years...this is where the money is going to get too heavy to ignore. Sunbelt and ACC have a $BIG$ reason to make sure JMU and Virginia win their conference championship game. IE Conference refs calling the game in a slanted way for the conference who pay their salary. JMU in t...

Re: UNCA in Asheville

This team sucks offensively, no flow, can’t shoot, free throws embarrassing percentage. Should not be getting dominated by these mid majors. We are getting dominated by these mid majors because we are low majors. I bet we fare pretty well in the Sunbelt. Sad to say but the conference is not good in...

Re: Hanging on for 26

In the new world, I would recruit 1st string and 2nd string "football" players and then I would recruit the best athletes (Fast, strong or big....hopefully all of those) at that point and try to TEACH them football during the year. Hopefully by the time you start having injuries to your 1st and 2nd ...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

Agree that Miami should get a bid if an ACC is required to get a bid. UVA had a relatively easy nonconference schedule. Miami played ND and Florida (even if a down year fur Florida) So winning the conference should take a backseat to Miami beating notre dame in September? The point of the thread is...

Re: FB vs the fake ASU Saturday at 2:30

We are just not good. When we were winning I was worried we were going to get ECU in a bowl game to sell a lot of tickets. ECU would beat us by 50 this year. I hope DLO can turn it around next year. If you cant run (not throw) a play to get 1 yard when the game is on the line....you really don't des...
