Grayson McCall has had App's number. Sure it's Chadwell's scheme but App didn't have an issue with Chadwell before McCall came along.Bootsy wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2023 12:13 pmYou sound quite certain that App would beat LU.

I think Liberty is our only shot at a top 25 team in a bowl game.

Would rather have Boise State there, UCF in the Gasparilla, WVU in Birmingham, Iowa State in Memphis, etc.
But of course App would get stuck with Liberty. That's been par for the course in bowls thus far. Beating a Top 25 Liberty does nothing for App. It won't get you ranked. It'll be a blip on sports news. And it'll be another game against a C-USA school.
Time for something else other than the MAC and C-USA.
We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Liberty would be a tough bunch to beat if we drew a bowl game against them.

Liberty’s defense has holes, but that Chadwell/Korn offense is dynamic.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
He totally lucked out this year. He did have a good game, so credit where credit is due, but we played a couple of weeks before the light went off for App's D. If we had played later in the season, App wins by 2 or 3 scores. We were a fumble away from the win even before the light came on.ericsaid wrote: ↑Fri Dec 01, 2023 5:54 pmGrayson McCall has had App's number.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
Yeah, I know. I was just responding to the idea that it was all Chadwell. We saw what Chadwell without McCall was at Coastal. App never got the luxury that JMU got two years in a row.Yosef84 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 02, 2023 8:53 amHe totally lucked out this year.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
It certainly seems that way. After the NMSU game I really feel like App could run for 250 to 300 yards on them.

Loosing the starter hurt them last night. They could have won that game with him.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
Chadwell has a QB now that is on par with McCall. If we played LU in a bowl, it would probably look like those 1980’s Holiday Bowl games where 95% of plays were passes and the total score was consistently >90 pts.ericsaid wrote: ↑Sat Dec 02, 2023 9:13 amYeah, I know.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
Their game with Toledo was a good one. If their Defense played like it did in the MAC championship game....gonna be another LONG night. Their points per game scoring and allowing are just about identical to Troy's.

They aren't anywhere near as good as Troy. I'd expect us to win that one and be favored.

Just saw 247 has us in MB against Ohio. Updated on front page article about 30 minutes ago.

Hope it's not true. Would like APP to play Miami OH instead

To be fair we are an 8-5 Sun Belt team. I’m just glad to be bowling.

Re: Congrats - Bowl Eligible
The Sun Belt is the best G5 league and it's not even close.
Furthermore, what does that say about GSU if App needs to be downgraded from the Cure?
