Re: Big news coming soon?
We WILL NOT schedule another game for this year - other than a Sun Belt Championship & Bowl game.

Agree. I don't know asu66, but been around long enough to know he doesn't blow smoke to mess with us.appst89 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 8:42 amI don't know of anything myself, but I can tell you without any doubt that Chuck (asu66) does not just blow smoke.ComebackShack wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 8:31 amIs anyone in the know aware of news coming down the pipe?

Re: Big news coming soon?
For sure, no way.
1. The only way we would have is during these up coming weeks by moving the Ark State game around. and obviously that's not gonna happen.
2. AppState is way too invested in making the Sun Belt championship right now.

^^^This^^^
With regards to scheduling an extra game, it would have to be contingent upon either team (App or opponent) not making their respective conference championship. As for actually scheduling an extra game for Dec. 1st, I believe it's good business to have a fall back plan if App fails to make the Sun Belt Championship.

What is the point of the OP other than to say "I know something you don't"?

But not very good business for the other school to schedule a make-up game against a team that will probably wind up canceling.

Re: Big news coming soon?
I was only speaking in terms of App as I don't really care about any other program's business. There is still a lot of season to be played and a number of variables that go into making the championship. I like what I've seen so far and the expectation is a championship run, however a few key injuries can change App's trajectory.EastHallApp wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 9:19 amBut not very good business for the other school to schedule a make-up game against a team that will probably wind up canceling.
Whether an additional OOC game even happens, IMO there should be behind the scene discussions as a back-up and I have full faith that DG has a plan.

Re: Big news coming soon?
I too would guess a future year P5 home and home. No way we should schedule something on Dec 1.

Re: Big news coming soon?
I think it would be a smart move to schedule something, but I don't see anyone agreeing. If we nail something down, we either play for the SB championship or possibly play a regional P5 on 12/1. Win win for App. If VT or UNC schedule us and we play for the SB, they are Christmas shopping on 12/1. I don't see anyone out there willing to first, play App, second agree to play App with the likelihood that game will be cancelled.
It's got to be a future H&H.

Re: Big news coming soon?
I'd rather play a Sun Belt title game or not at all on Dec. 1.
If anything is scheduled for Dec. 1, a back-up date down the line should be included in the deal.

Re: Big news coming soon?
Could we play a game Dec 8, same day as the Army-Navy game? Or is that too close to bowl season and bad form since that's the only game that day?

Re: Big news coming soon?
Tech lost a home game like we did and in light of the ODU loss they aren't likely interested in coming to Boone.

Re: Big news coming soon?
What are you talking about? We have played VT before. We traveled to Blacksburg, VA in September 1979 and played VT in a close game but ultimately came up short 32-41.StorminASU wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 7:58 amThis is the Mandela effect at work clearly because we've never played VT. A potential game with them would be interesting though since we've never met on the field.appgrad2010 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 7:23 amFinally? We played them a handful of years ago.87ASUgrad wrote: ↑Wed Oct 03, 2018 7:16 amI wish it could be that, but I doubt it.

anything to do with this???
That date (1Dec18) conflicts with the first annual Sunbelt Conference Football Championship game date. Hopefully being played in beautiful Boone, NC.
Why post if information won't be revealed? Makes no sense. Just tell us!
Come on, people!
