Pretty sure the Bracketbusters game against Wichita St. was on one of them.

From the App State release. None of our players were born yet the last time App State had a true home game on ESPN/2/U.

It will be the first-ever nationally televised Mountaineer game at the Holmes Center and the first nationally televised App State home game since the Mountaineers faced Davidson in February 2000, late in the program's final season at Varsity Gym.

That's awesome! I admit I looked to see if they actually sold to capacity and great to see they did.

Watching the 25th-ranked, 11-2 Auburn Tigers and am wondering where our win over them this year stacks up with our best wins in history. I can't say that I know of many wins over big teams.

I was watching the beginning of the game and can't help but see that ranking. Thought the same thing. Long way to go and they could sink or rise but have we ever beaten a legit ranked team? I think judgement needs to be reserved for JMU. Of course that game is shaping up to be a good one and they are now one of 3 undefeated teams left.

JMU down 12

Yeah, Louisiana gave them all they wanted. Meeting them when we do will be a tall order, the end of a 3 game road swing. Auburn seems legit right now and I would definitely hang my hat on that win. Funny that we don't get any love in the polls.. not saying we are under ranked really but having to see UNCW 4 spaces above us on the silly mid-major rankings is humorous.

Preseason rankings influence this stuff a little bit still. If we had beat NIU or Asheville then I believe we would be ahead of UNCW. If we have a strong January we will be in good shape. I put more stock into the ratings around Feb 1.

Auburn beat Arkansas by 30. That win will continue to look awesome.
