This trailer made me wonder…do we have a deal with Wyoming to come play in Boone in the future? Wasn’t sure if the original deal for last season was a one-time deal or a home and home.
They came to Boone on 2015(I think). Last year was our return game. It got pushed back from the original date.
Thanks for this info. I guess that was one of the home games I had to miss. Watched the game on TV last year and heard good things about the Laramie area from folks who went.
We had a blast in Laramie. It was all great except for how the game turned out.

Does anyone know if our video crew plans to include the App clips from the trailer in our pre-game video package? The pre-game video before the team runs out always gets a pop but you hear it get louder for example when the Michigan kick block comes up. I think the video game trailer clips would as well with the students and video gamers in the stands.

I imagine anything that EA Sports wanted to include in their game Appalachian provided it. Appalachian would not have won all those video awards without being as thorough as they have been. I just hope anything, "Roll Neer's," makes it through. https://www.hcpress.com/app-state/roll- ... -that.html

If memory serves me, it was said that App was one of 15 schools chosen to be a part of the marketing of the game, but no one was real sure what all of that entailed or would be at that time. I was told they were asked to provide lots of photos, graphics, and bio like information, which was probably all the schools in the game. Like today, I guess we will all know as it comes out. Cool stuff and Big Time for App!
Joey Jones told me that they have been sending them stuff over the last two years. He said he could remember everything. He said the Hi-Hi-Hiyikas and Play Me That Mountain Music were sent.
Hopefully EA Sports is/has loaded up on uniform combinations. That was always a cool feature with the previous games.
I wanna say I read somewhere most schools get three combinations with some schools like Oregon getting a few more.

I pre-ordered at Gamestop in early March. I am surprised it has taken many this long to pre-order. :lol:

Was watching some of the other trailers for the game.
This one shows the players running out on the field and the video board at 30 seconds.
App on Defense at home at 47 seconds.
Shows a James Burton TE as previously at App St in the portal at 3:27

I've got to applaud EA Sports for giving the various G5 schools some love with these videos.

So much to unpack for me personally with this recent video, as I will be playing this game A LOT. Should I modify the conferences to be more realigned regionally? Bring the Pac 12 back? Should I start off as offensive or defensive coordinator for App?

After watching that it is going to be a lot of work to do dynasty. Things have changed a lot from those blobs on the field in the 80s/90s.

If one does not own a current gen game system and the last system predates any backwards compatibility (Wii, PS2) which system should one purchase?

Is there any talk of NCAA Basketball or NCAA Baseball, which were the other NCAA sports I am aware of over the years.

PS6 or Xbox X Series. I have not heard of any talk regarding the baseball or basketball games. I don't think they sell enough copies that EA Sports would see them as a worthwhile project. You have to remember with all the added costs of having to start from scratch and paying the athletes to be in the game that there is no reason to make a game that won't sell but maybe 1/5 the amount of copies as football.

So no thoughts on PS5 or Xbox?

I have the Gamecube version of the NCAA basketball game and purchased a PS2 second-hand the week they finally stopped selling the PS2 in Japan so I could grab a copy of the NCAA baseball game. Both are fun for what they are. But I also understand the need for demand. And just like TV ratings I am sure football is THE driving force compared to other college sports. In the two mentioned cases I purchased both well after they were on the market so the systems were much cheaper. I am not sure I want to wait this time around.

I was under impression that the Xbox won't play the CFB game. I have never played PS5 but if you are getting a console you might as well get the newest you can so it will be compatible with newer games a lot longer. Unless you are just buying to play this year's game and don't plan on buying new games over the next several years.

I bought NCAA basketball game when it was last out but I have heard some say that it does not have nearly the distribution as football so they probably won't do one this time. For the record, if they made one I would buy it.

According to the Wikipedia page for the game, PS5, Xbox X/S are the two platforms. I would get a Switch if they would put the game on that platform. The Wii version had graphics that were not so great but they worked good enough for me.

I grew up on the Atari VCS, so I can live with a bit less than PS5 if the gameplay is there.

Thanks for the advice.
