Wow, these men have a win streak going! Come out and support these guys. We will be there. ESPN has App State with a 55.6% to win on their matchup predictor over the UL Monroe Warhawks. #GiveEmHell

In years past this is the part of the season the basketball team wins a couple followed by a lopsided home loss in front of the largest crowd of the season.

Would love to be proven wrong!

We were known to fade during the Apke and Cantwell Eras too. Especially when the likes of ETSU and Chattanooga would come to town. For years those two teams flat out owned us.

Anyone at the game? Seems like a decent crowd. I wish I could be there.

Tenuous one point lead. 1.26 left. Forrest does a 1 on 4 fast break and gets swatted away

Would have been nice to get a blow out but it's good for the team to win one of these close ones. We've been in a lot of single digit games this year and lost the vast majority. Looks like the team is starting to believe! Keep it up, Apps!

I’ve been as critical of this team as anyone this year, but let’s give credit where it’s due. Something has obviously clicked in the last few games. These kids suddenly look like a different team. A tough stretch awaits against 6 of the top teams in the belt. Maybe we prove that we belong.

Watching the team jubilantly celebrating after the win puts things into perspective. They really want to compete and win. Us old alumni get carried away

Ok, first congratulations to the team for fighting back. As a casual b-ball observer, I’ve followed the grief that’s been given to JF. I understand the frustration... it’s been 5 yrs blah, blah, blah. In the past five years it seems he’s cobbled together like three different units in those years. I know he/ returned 4 starters from last season plus we had all this new talent. It is safe to say that this team... the first 8 or 9 players are very talented. I guess that’s the frustration that you are so talented but you’re not able to finish games. I have felt that there is so much talent that it has been harder getting the right personnel grouping at the right time. I’m glad that it seems that problem is getting resolved. I also think those close losses have given this group the experience to know how to close these tight games. It’s not magic but when we are playing stout defensively this is when we extend leads and win games. This team can shoot.
