[New Article]Official This ain't Russia prediction thread
This is a blog post. To read the original post, please click here »
Call it whatever you want it this point, but don’t call it a comeback. Indeed, Appalachian football has been here for years, and despite an eighteen game hiatus from dominant football, the Mountaineers are definitely back. There were plenty of doubters, and plenty of believers, but there is not a soul alive who thought the Mountaineers would have gone from 1-5 to where they are at this point. One game stands between the Mountaineers and a top three finish in their first year of FBS transition in the Sun Belt and a winning record. It has been over thirty years since the Mountaineers had back to back losing seasons, dating all the way back to the 1981-82 seasons. Last weeks win over the kings of the Sun Belt, Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns ensured at worst, a break even record. Has 6-5 ever felt so good? It has not. There is no way. Never has a team knocked off Arkansas State and Lafayette in back to back weekends on the road. Scott Satterfield has accomplished the feat twice, defeating the two in consecutive games, the only coach to do it, but even the head coach one-upped himself with his team full of road warriors. We have all been witness to some big time wins over the years by the Mountaineers. But rarely has a Mountaineer team surprised me with their play as much as this team has in the past five weeks. Anyone can win a few games in a row with luck, but the Mountaineers have had none bounce their way. This has been the most dominating stretch of football I have seen by any Mountaineer team. The only moment that could make it better is by sending the seniors off with one last win.

Idaho has an abysmal record, but they have played fairly well at times. That O-line is huge. Passing game is stout. Ok, that's about as much sugar as I can spread. As App fans we have been witness to few games that we should have won and didn't and I don't want this to be the next. This team is on a roll and they will take this seriously, they better.

Re: [New Article]Official This ain't Russia prediction threa
tough to think that they will be mentally ready for this game, traveling across country on Thanksgiving weekend, 1-9 record, playing a team you have no history with. Still, Idaho passing game scares me, got to put pressure on the qb, they only have a chance if they turn this into a high scoring game, they will score, just not near enough. App 45 Idaho 31

Looks like no bowl game this year, so we need to make the best of this last home game. Need a big home win for our 11 Seniors on this "rivalry weekend". Our new rivals from Idaho look to have a good passing game (23rd ranked in FBS/281 Yards per game according to ESPN). They have scored a lot of points in some games this year and put up 24 on The Stink. They give up a lot of points too though. Updated weather forecast looks to be nice weather also. Should be a high scoring game I think.

Appy....its one of the many shorter versions of Appalachian. I not a fan that whines and complains over Appy and the alternate pronunciation of Appalachian. I embrace it. I don't care what anyone calls us, why? Cause that means they are talking about us. I didn't correct a single Ohio State fan for calling us Appalayshun State.the day after the big game in Cleveland. I was simply happy they had a reason to be talking about us.
Lastly I have been predicting us using Appy for the past 3-4 weeks and its turned out just fine, not messing with a good thing.
Appalachian State, Better than your school since 1899!!!!
