They don’t have many transfers and we do. That will make a big difference.

Ga Southern 35
App State-17

GASO 42
US 17

I'll still enjoy watching, but this is an exhibition game at best given the state of our roster.

I'm proud of our guys for picking up this game, and I think the players we will have out there are going to realize this is their big shot to show what they can do. But there's a reason they were 2s or deeper on the depth chart this year, and it sounds like Southern is playing a lot of their 1s. So my expectations are low, but I do feel that if a blowout loss happens, it will be due to talent disparity and not lack of effort. In this game, that's all you can ask for.

I agree with this. I don't think our players who showed up would come just to give little effort so I do expect to see them play hard. I hope that if it is just lack of talent and executing that our fans won't be upset if we are blown out. The only way I will be upset is if we are in position to win and Loggains makes some really dumb calls that hurts the players. I don't have high expectations for this game at all on our end just due to the fact we are going to be without so many key players. We were already 5-7 and this is not even that same team.

After taking an L already to GS this season and what appears to be a depleted roster, App is likely to struggle on both sides of the ball. Not sure App will get it done but I'd consider holding the Eagles under 40 and App scoring more than 20 a decent showing.

App - 13
GS - 38

Now if the majority of App's starters who are in the portal suit up, my prediction changes.

App - 34
GS - 31

I have GS -2 from the early lines right now.

Tempted to take us with the + right now, but not sure we have enough talent to put up a fight. Hope so, but not sure.

Going in I would have taken GSU with as many as 14 points before I would have hesitated if I was a gambler. It is looking like it might have been safe to take them at 17-20 range.

[biggie]

I should have put way more on that -2 I got.

Embarrassment.
