Heard DJ this morning on atm said announcement will be at noon... My guess it will be in 2017 ... just got a weird feeling... it's either Duke or WFU.

When will "It's better than what we had" no longer be good enough for App State?

They were defeated by UL-Monroe earlier this season. In two weeks we'll see how we match up, currently.

Duke would be cool but I doubt it. Based on past experience I would keep my expectations low and be happy if it turns out to be a marquee name. Any P5 is huge though.

I'll say either Wake or Ga Tech. Go Apps!

a game with Wake would shatter the attendance record. Haven't been able to get up to a game in two years. Are we still using the the bleachers on the field house endzone (on the track)? How many butts did those fill? Guessing a game with Wake (mid afternoon in good weather) could garner 35K plus.

I hope it is Wake. I loved the games back in the 80's and 90's. Easy road game to get to also for the return visit.

Hopefully we are a lot better in 2017 and Wake is still the same.

You beat me to ND. :lol:

But now I see it's Wake. Hopefully they still don't have things better by then and we do.


I'd like to see APP at ND though.
