This came out Nov 30th, but it's nice seeing something that's outside of App's backyard.

Nice article. If you know the "journalist" that wrote it, please let him know that it is a "moot " point, not " mute".

"The going has been tougher since that last national championship. App State never made it past the second round of the playoffs after usually getting a first-round bye for winning its conference championship or at least a share of it."

Last time I checked our loss at Montana in 2009 was a semi-final game, but I agree with the OP, and I appreciate his enthusiasm for APP football.

Worst loss ever in my opinion and it was the semi final. We should have won that one and another NC.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I see that word misused so much! The sad thing is that college graduates are the most guilty!

Well I don't like being a member of the grammar police because I make many unintentional grammatical errors with my posts. However, I find these errors egregious when committed by journalist which should no better and the editing staff that proofs the article.
