Cure bowl vs Miami (OH)

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

This might have been posted elsewhere but, which of our players are not playing in Saturday's game due to entering the portal?

Nate was not listed on depth chart. Not sure about Deshaun Davis or Milan Tucker but remember seeing that Tucker was playing in the bowl game.

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

Just double checked, Nate and Deshaun are not on the depth chart. Milan Tucker is on it. Seth Williams also listed as backup Center. I don’t think there are any other transfers that were on the two deep.

Miami QB Smith not on their depth chart, so 3rd string QB will have the start. One of their WRs also in the portal and not on depth chart. This might be a situation where our defense has a chance to outscored their offense.

Think they're offense struggle previously, so should be interesting how our D does. Seems like just a matter of if our offense can score against their good D.

"Seems like just a matter of if our offense can score against their good D."

Depends on if an offensive lineman calls the plays or not.

[T-Dog]

Looks like App is the home team.

We have played on ABC numerous times. However , not a “ national broadcast”.

What were the prior games?

[Stonewall]

Citadel, Furman , WCU , ECU …now that I’m thinking about it the 76 ECU game may have been national

[TheMoody1]

I remember Furman in 1980.

I remember one at Western, think it was 1978 (maybe77). regional telecast. They were good and supposed to beat us. We stomped their ass.

Weather not looking good for Saturday down here. Current forecast is about 100% chance rain,15 mph wind gusting to 20
from 9-10am through midnight. About two inches worth spread out over the period. Shouldn't bee heavy most of the time. Temps right at 70.

Just realized this game will be played on natural grass. Hoping the forecast is wrong, but if it holds the playing conditions are gonna deteriorate quickly.

Need a quick start.

GO APPS!!

What's a quick start? I'm not familiar with this concept.

1976 @ ECU was national ABC. I was not scheduled to travel but since it was our first big TV game I wasn't going to miss it. I and a couple managers drove all day for the game, then back home afterwards. The Furman game in Conrad 1980 was a disaster and I was there too with my future bride. It was cold to begin with and by half-time the field was white and the whole second half the turf was slicker than owl snot. The Brown to Beasley connection was definitely negated and we lost. Coach Brakefield's successor was the coach; I don't like to type or say his name.

39-13 in Cullowhee. We spoiled a conference championship and Tangerine Bowl invitation.

I want to say it was a week night game. Perhaps Thanksgiving. Memories not quite clear.

[appfanz]

Thanksgiving it was.

[Stonewall]

And I think Robbie Price went out with a knee injury…we were toast at that point.

You are correct, it was a Thanksgiving night game.

[scatman77]

Correct again. He had a recurring MCL sprain which we heavily taped. This was way before good hinged knee braces. He got it hit in the 2nd quarter and was out the rest of the game. Up until that point it was our game to lose.
