UNCC football dumpster fire

[hotrod2001]

Looks like Charlotte might actually get a win tonight.

Who are they playing?

The Florida football juggernaut known as FIU.

Since I wrote that, FIU has now gained like 20 points and it is a 2 point game, lol. Maybe I spoke too soon.

[hapapp]

FIU up now 30-29.

[hotrod2001]

Yeah, they lost...lol.

[NoLongerLurking]

Wow...

[AppDawg]

Wake needs a game next season on 9/8. Can we but the '9ers out? Puhleaaasssse? Pretty pleeeeeaaase?!!?!!

We'd all like it, but Charlotte already has a 2018 FCS game and full schedules for a few years, so it would take some logistical gymnastics and as much as we don't like UNCC, it would deprive an in-state match-up of two public schools and take that gate away from them.

If a Wake rematch is going to happen in 2018, I think the more likely scenario would be buying out Gardner-Webb on Sept. 22 and hosting the Deacs, since App would need a sixth home game and Wake already has six home games, including what should be a big home sellout versus Notre Dame and having the game either Sept. 29 or later in the season.

Wake will probably just schedule an FCS since they don't have one.

Wake hosts ND the day of our game with G-W. Much more scheduling gymnastics would be needed to pull that one off.

Then how about this. We swap opponents with NC State.... they play Georgia State on the 8th. We should be generous and not stand in the way of pillow fight #3 from happening....

If we're honest with ourselves, there's a decent shot we'll drop off a notch next year, especially early. Might not be the best year to take another shot at an in-state P5 anyway, especially since our schedule is already finalized.

I am not sure how good we are this season. So far this year we are the only FBS team that has struggled with the Bobcats, and we lost a game to Wake we should have won. We need to step it up a notch tout de suite, or predicting a drop off for next year might end up being replaced with realistic hopes we will improve upon a disappointing 2017 season.

Fair point. I think we'll go on to a good season this year. But either way, lots of uncertainty replacing Lamb, Gossett, Nunn, and five of our defensive front seven.

[appfanjj]

Speaking of scheduling, wonder who we are talking to about games to fill in the open dates we have in 2019 and 2020? I think we have games to schedule for these years. Would like to see something interesting happen.

[wncapp78]

FIU. Nope. LOST AGAIN.

[ASU-FTW]

Bumping. UNCc lost again. 0-6

[hapapp]

I think it high time we stop reveling in other's problems. Its not like we are showing up every week and dusting people off. We have our own problems that we should focus on.

[APP93]

We want respect from N.C. State, UNC, Wake, ECU but some do not want to give it to UNCC???

App goes to Idaho this week, so the prospect of starting an in state rivalry with a school in a G5 conference should get the fan base excited. UNCC are taking their lumps now (as expected), but they will get better and when they do this will be a fun game for both schools.

How many on this board are heading to Idaho this weekend???

[ASU-FTW]

I'll let the coaches focus on resolving our problems.

In the meantime it is entertaining for me to see a college football program born with a silver spoon in their mouths, struggling so much.

[MarxistMountaineer]

Yeah I really don't get why this thread is still a thing. There's only one team I'm worried about, and it's not UNC Charlotte.

[Gonzo]

Ah, live a little. UNCC has about 15 fans, but there isn’t a more entitled group in college sports. They’ve shown us nothing but disrespect from the time they got a team.

0-6. I hope they lose every game they ever play. They truly deserve it.

[hapapp]

I didn't say you had to root for them. But if someone else's struggles are more important then have at it. I'll just be a fan of App State.

Yeah, if there's one thing this board needs, it's more bitching about App's shortcomings. That will get the team to block better and stop committing penalties for sure.
