I know we have work to do but my eyeball test with Memphis and Tulsa tells me that App is a top tier G5. We made a very good team look ordinary last night. These guys don't look like world beaters. We have great coaching, depth, team speed and playmakers.

Great coaching means great adjustments! I have seen that enough this season to tell you we have great coaching

As much as I loved Coach Moore and especially when Dale Jones was DC and to some extent when Wiley was here, how many times did we fail to make adjustments in-game or at half time? Week after week after week after week.

The problem with the rankings is the focus on offensive production and beating P5's. Memphis beat an SEC team sure, but Ole Miss is reeling and they did it at home. Houston beat a ho hum Louisville team. Toledo is probably the best G5 team this year, but they beat an SEC team on the road that will likely battle Auburn for last place in the west.

App is 6-1. Our lone loss was to a top 5 team. We are a top 10-15 defense and a top 25 offense. We are balanced and good. It's too bad nobody is noticing.

Just keep winning. People will eventually take notice. The Ark St game is our next opportunity for national exposure, but need to take care of Troy 1st.

The cream will rise to the top.

Memphis is a really good team, but their D is awful. They gave up 42 to a bad Tulsa team who Monroe played tight.

We have been (for at least 15-20 years) 22 scholarships away from being as competitive as most FBS teams.

I would agree with that statement.

I'm watching this Clemson/Miami game and it's got all the makings of another Clemson beat down. If this game mirrors the 41-10 game we had against them or worse, does that make our stock rise any in terms of our loss being not as bad as Miami? Or does the Sun Belt affiliation just null and void that?

It might if Miami was a top 25 team.

21-0 and its still the first quarter, could get ugly. I guess if it goes that way we can at least say we fared better than The U.

Hooray moral victories!

We are going to fare better than a lot of teams. Clemson is going to need to win, and win big, from here on out to get a playoff spot. Oddly enough, if we go 11-1, we might help out Clemson more than they help us.

Also watching the UNChyphenHarrisburg/Southern Mississippi game. Maybe it's the USM uniforms, but I am having a flashback to the dark...minutes (seconds) of Appalachian football. It's definitely train-wreck television.

Amazing how far we have come. We completely destroy USM and Liberty now.

USM looks like crap and they still are putting a whooping on UNCc. Can't believe we lost to those scrubs last year.

Clemson beating Miami 42-0 at half.

We really didn't play nearly as badly as the U! Just let it get sideways in the second quarter. Clemson won't lose until the final 4.

if we had the Matics of 2015, we win that game by 9 points minimum

Goes without saying that with a little better fortune in the kicking game we go 9-3 last season and the talk of a "turnaround" is not as big a deal.
