The Rock is Blue

[asutrnr81]

All things #AppState have been covered up.

Field modified slightly. (Block A and end zones remain).

No welcome to the rock motivational video and entrance

No logos that could be covered...

Now that is not to say some #AppState fan couldn't help loosen the banners.

Can't keep us from being loud and making it a "home" game!

Go Apps

Stupid... plain and simple. We earned “Home Field Advantage”

However if these are the rules. Why can’t Louisiana give us their intro video to play for them. Why can’t we ring the 3rd down bell on both sides, etc. GO APPS!!

"All of the ticket revenue will go back to the conference, Keene said, and be distributed to the 10 football-playing institutions."

[AppStateMtneer]

Get that powder ready and shoot the gun off for each point on each App State score then! They can't stop that!

I know A5 conferences play actual neutral site games but do any other conferences (AAC, CUSA, MAC & MWC) have these same "neutral" rules for the home team's stadium?

Not fond of the SBC distribution either. Other SBC programs should not be making equal money (I realize it's not a lot) off the backs of App fans.

It doesnt matter.... the Rock is like a cold and loud "witch" this time of year, you can put a Sunbelt mask on her, but she is still going to be a cold and loud "witch"!

ULL, WELCOME TO THE ROCK!

[/\PP ST/\TE GRAD 09]

Dint understand the point of home field advantage, when the conference has to put their own touch on it. Are the Sun Belt logos not enough? It's just stupid, just like in the FCS days playing the bell on our own third downs. Just stupid.

I could not agree more. We earned home field. This isn’t a neutral site bowl game. Stupid!

The temporary SB banners will look cheap and trashy. Is that what the conference really wants on national TV?
As far as the 3rd down etc—-Marching Mountaineers can rock. Hope they are ready to blast it.

[Appstate88]

Waste of precious Sunbelt money. Pack the Rock! Loud and Proud Mountaineers! Loud and Proud.

Can we bring our own signs?

[DaphneUrquhart]

Can we bring our own signs?

Yes! They're even having a poster contest. Contest rules can be found on Twitter I'm sure.

I don’t mind it personally. I was just at the Sun Belt Volleyball Championship Game and the whole gym at Georgia State was covered in Sun Belt banners. For me it was a constant reminder that this isn’t just another game it’s a championship and it actually kind of hyped it up. I feel like it’ll do the same for the football game. We still keep the block A midfield and the crowd will be cheering for App which is the main thing.

[appaneer1984]

Just gives us more incentive to be loud loud LOUD!!!

[zim262]

Just like during the days of the FCS playoff games at home when everything was supposed to be neutral and was NCAA branded. Forget the decorations and just show up loud and proud!!!

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

Will the announcer be required to say "and it's another Ragin Cajun FIRST DOWN"? I mean, if they get any first downs.

[T-Dog]

Both teams will have th same type of entrance with fireworks.


App is the home team, but this game is hosted by the Sun Belt Conference.
