On an off subject comment but not worth a thread. Your football team is a good (Great) marketing tool. I did not know where Lindenwood was and now I will be following them to see how their season turns out. I was impressed with their swagger, grit and determination. They took blow after blow (big nasty hits on the quarterback and running backs and receivers) and kept getting up. Reminded me of the App old days. I hope they make a run in the playoffs.

I can only speak for myself, but the Lions gained my respect on Saturday.

18-14 App's. Ugly game but 3-0. bye will be helpful before Boise. If Charlotte and the first quarter team shows up we have better than 50/50 to win that game. I might be delusional but I feel that.

Over the last 5 or so years I wonder what the win rate is for G5 v G5 when going cross country. These games are pretty not that frequent
At one point we had never won a game plyed west of the Mississippi River. Is this still the case?
First one was Ark St. 2014.

Non SBC I'm not sure off the top of my head. I know we have won SBC games west of the miss.

I like that better. I think we are going to walk a mile or so from our hotel to the game.

Interesting things going on. Official line is USM -1.5. SP+ has us by like 8 points. FPI favors us.

Feel like this spread has some value but I don’t bet on my own team. The public overreacting to the Lindenwood game (I am too, but realize a lot of this came down to drops and a really strange touchdown catch from them and a questionable touchdown based on a questionable fumble).

I think we win this one comfortably.

Don't forget 4 TOs and a poor effort to look cool non TD

I think we have a much better effort to win

Interesting that ESPN's book has USM -1.5. Wonder if most folks stay away from this game or if a heavy majority of the money comes in on USM?

I know the competition hasn’t been great, but having the #2 rusher in the country shows promise.

Oldest known? Have we not explored the depth of college football ages yet?
