Mentioned several times that Speir was an assistant at App State during the championship run.

Very sparse.

Eagles score 24 straight points to jump on top of Troy 24-10 with 1 to go before half.

Chris Burgess had a great game leading the Apps with 18 points.

My guess that first set score is a reflection of the atmosphere, our team is not accustomed to playing before such an audience.

USA will be a tough out especially down there. That big tight end will be a difficult match up. Of course, the only game that matters right now is Idaho.

Took it on the chin in game 1, 25-13. Then fell 25-20 in the next two.

Apps 35
Vandals 28

Tickets will be available after December 6 when we know which bowl we make. No way i can make December 23. The 19th is a go however. We may know before the 6th depending on what the NO Bowl wants to do. If they want UL and they don't have 6 wins before then, then it may be Dec 6 before we know. If ...

I guess in some ways this is helpful for Collins to get these meaningful snaps as he is projected to be the center next year.

In a weeks time there likely will be new or different scenarios. I would take where we are at this point in time rather than needing X number of wins to become bowl eligible. As for going 11-1, it didn't turn out to be so realistic. Now 10-2...stayed tuned!

That has little to do with our game with them. We are both different teams from that time of the season.

Hats off to the Red Wolves, they can lay claim at this point to be the Belt's best. Pretty impressive with only 1 loss on the season.

What do you suppose could happen if both Troy and UL become bowl eligible? Would they they be picked up by the local bowls? If A State wins the conference they are guaranteed a spot. Would the Cure bowl take us over Ga Southern? Suppose we drop a game or two? Interesting how the discussion has chan...

If the roles had been reversed, we would certainly claim that that was proof that we were the better team. The game wasn't as close as the final score indicated. If we played them again, we certainly are good enough to beat them. But last Thursday, the better team won the game.

Hopefully the Vandals are still a dumpster fire by the time we go to Moscow and then the week off following should be good to rest before finishing out the season. Could be worse, Texas State had like their two bye weekends within three weeks of each other at the beginning of the season. They are 2...

Vandals up 24-0 over USA in the 2nd quarter.

Take set 1 25-14

Hard to argue injuries have taken a big toll on offense, but I have yet to see a decent excuse for the defense. Ark St played with less rest than we did by a couple of hours and they had to travel. And the time of possession in this game was not very lopsided (32m vs 28m) so saying the D never got ...
