My time was Furman and Marshall and the birth of the GaS. The Stink has become the best rivalry by definition. The Whee thing has always been a result of their own envy for us simply put and it still exist to this day. I think WC and JMU were born from the Obnoxious family with a distant cousin Marshall. WC being the envious step child and JMU being the privileged underachieving oldest child😁
KICK ASS!!!

I consider Marshall the best football rivalry we've had in my time. WCU died a pretty quick death by the early 90s , on our side , not theirs certainly. Southern fielded the role by default.Looking ahead to something bigger and better , hopefully in the not to distant future.
I agree and I still hate Marshall. The eagles got into our conference around the time I was graduating so that rivalry didn't exist during my student years but clearly they are our biggest rival based on the history of our teams.
I'm with you. I was at App during Marshall's last years in the SoCon and I still hate Marshall probably as much if not more than Ga Southern. I don't remember much caring about the Eagles until the Turds had gone on to cheat in the MAC.
I still hate Marshall. Don’t keep up with them but always smile when I hear they lose. I would find it hard to ever pull for them, even if it would benefit App.

As a former band kid, I was much more impressed with the HS bands than the kitty cats park and bark show

10 Charter Bus loads went. When has our band performed with those numbers and with as much recognition? Hell, we didn't even take our full band to South Cackalina.

10 buss loads of mediocrity and over hype. They can’t perform a show without an electronic background. I’m good with not being western Carolina.

I was at App '04-'10. IMO, GSUck & the Purple Pansies (Furman) were the most hated. Especially after the '05-'06 season when Furman beat us during the season but us upsetting them in the playoff semifinals. But no matter what, I never hated Western a bit. Even when they beat us for the 1st time in 74883 years back in '04. I never disliked them. Maybe b/c they suck so much? Even now lol.

Nowadays, I can't stand GSUck. I know Charlotte doesn't like us so we may have started something new. Especially after beating them back to back in football & last week in basketball.
