Hopefully by now, everyone has caught their breath, recovered, processed, and everything in between, one of the wildest football games they have seen. The longer you have been an App State fan, its even wilder to think about. We have seen plenty of memorable games over the years and decades, and no matter how long your fandom has lasted, the memory of 63-61 will not soon be forgotten. However, moral victories and second place does not exist on the mountain, and the season moves on. The next opponent comes from the most powerful league in college sports. Texas A&M has one of the largest stadiums by listed capacity in the country, and people actually show up and show out in College Station. It is an intimidating venue, sandwiched between every major city in Texas, where football is king. That is exactly the kind of program that Appalachian State wants to play. To push yourself to be your best, you have to put yourself in uncomfortable situations and challenge yourself. Whether a game like this occurs in Week 1, Week 2, after an open week, or after playing another P5 game, playing the best only makes you better, win or lose. I fully expect our Mountaineers to answer that call.

There is hope with their offense sputtering again SH. But their D looks really strong. And our D, well.

Hope I’m wrong but…

We've developed an unfortunate habit of coming up just short in these types of games. The near-misses, if they ever were fun, aren't anymore.

We are on the road against a top 15 caliber team so I don't think this will be as close as last week. I could see them winning by 14-17 but I will go with them covering the spread since we don't know how the defense will look

I don't ever go to the other teams message board but glanced at theirs last night for the prediction thread. Most don't expect us to compete against their defense.

Just can't pick us to lose.

Seeing that I'm currently in 2nd place I'll used my head this week vice heart. With that said, I hope I'm wrong:

Seeing how I'm in last place I'll continue to pick with my heart. Crazy thing though, my head agrees. Never count the 'neers out.

Heart and head in disagreement. Going with my head against this elite, talented team. I would be more than happy to eat some crow if I am wrong...

I trust Dale and the coaches to get this moving in the right direction. Will the scoreboard reflect in the results…..?
