What was the deal pregame? App circling for prayer when they arrived at the stadium and Georgia State comes out and there was a confrontation? Saws a little on appsports story.
Does anyone have more info ?
Go APPS!
We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

“They messed with the bull…and got the horns.”
Sounded like a desperate attempt at intimidation by Elliot and Coach Mike. Much like Elliot’s post game rant last week, an attempt to fire up and save a slowly sinking ship. Both seemed to have backfired.

Sad to say it, but were any of us here surprised by this stunt?appstate24 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 7:47 pm“They messed with the bull…and got the horns.”

Re: Pregame conflict
Pretty much. Sirignano led GSU out to "protect" their midfield logo when App State did their prayer circle around it, which
App does every game home and away. Pushes, shoves, taunts, etc. then Elliott and Sirignano and other GUs coaches pushed their players back to act like they were peacemakers.
Also, this happened more than an hour before gametime, so the refs weren't there (refs are mandated to be on the field 60 minutes before kickoff), so no penalties.
