Stringer and Gibbs have showed up big today. True freshmen making an impact on defense today.

Was there an update on Upshaw? If there was, I missed it.

The whole team actually looked prepared today! Defense played 1000 time better. This didn't even look like the same team that has been on the field the last few weeks. Great job coaches and players!

We played to win today instead of sitting back on defense waiting on them to make a mistake. Thank you Coach Woody for letting our boys play.

It looked to me like he was hit in the nuts and since we had pretty much wrapped things up by then, he just handed it over to Cox and Fergeson.

let's hope the fanbase repays this team with a big showing for the georgia state game in two weeks. that's a game we should win. Let's have the rock jumping for that game, this team deserves it. The way they bounced back after a rough stretch is very impressive for a young team. Also says a lot about the coaching staff

listening to the postgame, Satt ain't messing around anymore. said they benched someone (assuming Gilchrist) for the 1st half b/c of the personal foul penalty on Troy's opening drive

Really nice to feel good on a Saturday again. Maybe we can build off of this.

Just got back to Atlanta. What a great game App played on both sides of the ball. O-line was smacking Troy in the mouth all day and the backs finished every run. I think the light has come on for some of these young Apps and they use this game as a springboard for the season. Loved John Law's mother leading the App.....State....cheer! :lol:

I heard the APP-STATE cheer on tv and it was loud. I also heard what sounded like a lone female voice doing the APP part. I was wondering who that was. Three cheers for her.

Cox absolutely trucked a guy on a run that was called back for a hold. Get his ball security issues sorted out and we've got one helluva 2-headed beast at RB.

Im so pumped for the players and coaches tonight! I dont care how good/bad Troy is, we needed this win in the worst way. It looked like we finally stop being cautious and came out on the attack. I was really impressed with the secondary considering we lost Ross on the first drive. I hope the guy take a couple days to enjoy it then get back to work for Ga. State in two weeks.
