Get out of here with that Appstatefanjme.

Also, considering our record against "big time" BCS opponents recently nobody is scared to play us. Last time we kept it (legitimately) close was ECU 2009 29-24. Otherwise we've been getting spanked for more than a decade. And no, I didn't forget about Michigan.

Hopefully we can start a new trend this year.

Just looked at his 11 posts. Apparently he's a 14-year-old fan.

Makes sense now. Sorry, buddy.

The Tar Heels are scared, one could easily make the argument, but I don't think any other schools are scared... Yet.

Give the kid a break. He's 14, and although his video work is definitely amateur I appreciate his love for Appalachian State at such a young age. He was wrong with his post and will learn to know facts before you post for the big boys to see.

If this kid really is only 14, I Love the passion! I'm sure by now he figured out that post was probably not a good idea & will be better for it. I have a soft spot for all our young mountaineer faithful, again, love the passion!

Yeah. If he's 14, he deserves a big pass. Glad to have you, and feel free to ask questions.

Now here's the real embarrassment to our university. Why don't you stick to whining about how your beloved JMU lost their coach to Texas State?

Is he not the one posting the videos over the last few months?

Let's not run him off. He asked an honest question.

Both Chapel Hill and Duke have scheduled future home and home's with Charlotte. I bet both see it as a de-fact home game for their Charlotte-area alums. They wouldn't get such a warm welcome in Boone from most people.

At least with NC State scheduling home and home's with Troy, South Alabama and ODU, they're looking at recruiting. There's no recruiting edge in scheduling App. But then again, there's none in scheduling ECU either.

Dey scurr'd.

Much to easy to be a Wal-mart fan of the ACC teams. We need to do our very best to encourage and make anyone feel at home on this message board that reaches out to App, young or old, but especially the young.

Also, drop the BCS reference and use P5 instead...

We scared them more than most of the ACC teams on their schedule. We actually game them 3 quarters of competative football.

You're not going to make us feel bad just two months after an 11-win FBS season, tiny little man.

Our 14-year-old fan is more of a man than you.

I think we should use my moniker of Prig5.

prig
priɡ/
noun
a self-righteously moralistic person who behaves as if superior to others.

Does that not sum up the majority of those schools (though there are some exceptions at every school)? I think so.
