If our guys come out fired up and ready for many to play the last game they will ever play in KBS, then we win by a bunch. If they come out like in Troy and some others flat then it will be a close one.

I’m sorry y’all, but I just can’t take this game seriously this year. Obviously I hope we beat them by a million, but this game will not be close. The Stink is BAD this year. This isn’t a case of having some bad luck but they can still put up yards. This isn’t a situation where they can put it together and pull out a win. I genuinely think App’s 2nd string could beat Southern handily.
Troy and South Alabama were worth some hand wringing, Southern is not.
And because of that, I’m so happy to see App absolutely destroy the Stink this year.

No offense but this game should be taken very seriously. Its our Iron Bowl, you can throw out the record books in this game. And don't shoot me for calling it our iron bowl. We need an official name for this series.

I think this should be Black Saturday. I know there's been other games designated in the past as Black Saturday but when we play Southern...it should always be Black Saturday henceforward. And we need to beat the brakes off them gumroots.

TIGMA site has been promoting Beat Ga So black short and long sleeve t-shirt. Given the expected temperature on Saturday, my heavy coat is black. Every cold home game is Black Saturday for me.

And Yes there needs to be a name for the game.. maybe...The Toilet Plunger Game..lol

What I really want to see is Huesman get some real playing time. The guy has earned that much. Give him a half. Let him be the QB he could have been at a lot of other places. He probably knows enough to call his own plays. This is probably his very last chance to really play. What a great thankyou to him for being the man he is.

We cannot rest anyone. If we are up by 60 in the 4th quarter my expectation is that Brice airs it out to Sutton to make it 66.

The Stunk ruined our perfect season with their stench. All the seniors on this team missed out on a Cotton Bowl experience because the gum roots decided their broken clock just happened to be right that day.

Beat them so badly that they have to fire the new coach they just hired. Embarrass this bum ass school off the field.

2019 shouldn't have been a contest and we all know what happened. 2007 shouldn't have been a contest, but they ended the longest home winning streak in the country. App should never take an opponent lightly, especially Georgia Southern. EVER

Yeah this the game that it records are thrown out of the books. Both teams/fans want nothing more to embarrass the other. While I do agree I don’t want anyone to get hurt before the rematch with Louisiana and the bowl game, we have to come ready, no matter how bad southern is this year or any year. They want nothing more than to ruin our momentum going into the sunbelt championship and to put another L in our column.

Wouldn't be surprised if Stink players try to hurt some of our players on purpose...after all these years, nothing from that gang of puddin' heads would surprise me

Rest? What for? Are our players tired? If any of them are told they are going to sit out for rest I expect they’ll be so pissed off they’ll enter the transfer portal. Rest? That’s the most ridiculous idea I’ve ever heard. If we were playing Lenoir Rhyne maybe the ones dinged up could sit a spell. But we are playing a conference game against a hated rival and nobody wants to sit out.
