I wouldn't be opposed to it, and purely as a basketball fan, I definitely don't love the pack-line defense/slow-paced offense combo. That said, I don't think the comparison to football works. App adopted the spread option when it was still relatively new, especially at the 1-AA level. That's why WV...

I hesitate to set a hard-and-fast number as the standard, because I'll want to look back and consider the whole picture at the end of the season. Did we get better, did the schedule turn out to be tougher/easier than expected, does it look like we're close... in short, do I think we're headed in the...

Dreading the idea that this program is going to wander into middling to bad purgatory a la the Stink the last few years. It's a program momentum killer. When we were having all the success in the Satt years and celebrating "best FBS transition ever," the previous standard for that was Marshall. The...

I didn't watch any of the game (I respect myself more than that). But Louisville is 5-0, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Liberty has a real shot to go undefeated. WKU looks to be the only decent team remaining on their schedule. How painful would that be if they made NY6 bowl?

I doubt they'd get the bid even at 13-0 with that schedule.

I'm not sure where we'd be as of today, but we certainly would have been in a strong position moving forward.

Honestly, this has to be the silliest thing we discuss. Going to Appalachian doesn't require you to be an App fan. He is friends with Mack. I think they have homes close to each other at Elk River. He is a Carolina fan. So what? How on Earth can anyone spend this much time being angry as someone wh...

To answer the original question - fantastic atmosphere. Just a great day all around. As for the students - I didn't see anything noteworthy yesterday, but truth be told, at this point at least some of them are a weekly embarrassment, and that's just what I see entering and leaving the stadium. Thank...

You're right - I actually haven't seen a single person talk about what a good passer Jose is.

https://h5.newsbreakapp.com/mp/0oQ8MpjH?cv=23.35.0.27&platform=0 Good article in Raleigh N&O. So proud is the team and fans at the game. Go App! 💛🖤🏈 I find it crappy that in one breath Brown urged NCSU and ECU to play App and in the next breath is glad he doesn't play us again. I think it sucks tha...

Funny enough, there are a lot of parallels when it comes to Clemson and App the last few years. I don't care enough to visit Clemson's message boards, but I'm pretty confident they have plenty of upset fans, and also some who mock those fans for being upset as Clemson has slipped from national titl...

NCAA is retroactively applying a rule to him that they created after he had already transferred and enrolled at UNC. I believe there is a guy at Florida State who's in a similar boat.

Vegas picks us to fight for the bottom of our division with 6.5 wins. Maybe we can prove them wrong. The ESPN FPI says we will win 11 of 12. I’m seeing 10 of 12. Wyoming and UNC are favored against us. But several games including Marshall, JMU, and Georgia State are essentially toss ups according t...

Teams release injury reports all the time. HIPAA doesn't prevent that. It's probably either a) that it's still preseason camp and they don't feel the need to publish a story on an injury to a backup running back, or b) football coaches are notoriously stingy with injury info.

yup, it sucks but when demand > supply, well economics 101 takes over Problem is that scalpers artificially manipulate supply by buying up tickets (especially the best seats) and other products in bulk before consumers get a chance. Using bots to clear out websites in seconds, bribing delivery driv...

I'm not sure that's what's going on with tickets being available for a road game. I'm sure there are actual UNC season ticket holders who are happy to sell their tix to this one for a profit (none of the ones shown are in the App sections). That said, I truly loathe full-time flippers/scalpers. Whet...

The way our RBs usually go down with injuries, Roberts may be #1 by mid season. It's already begun, from my understanding. Vague Sorry, you're right. I don't know a lot of details, and some of what I do is from the 247 premium board, so I want to be sensitive to that. It sounds like Castle may miss...
