Hey Cline... this "gofundme thing," as you put it so dismissively, has raised nearly 17k in only a few days.

The App defense has few weaknesses. One of them is the propensity to give up big plays.

Since WKU is a big play offense, App's D could play lights out and it would still only take WKU a handful of plays to rack up serious points.

Regardless, if App's offense has a slow start, folks are liable to get itchy.

Going to need the safetys to play the best pass coverage they've played all year for this game.

They also beat Marshall 53-21. The same team that we needed a 4th quarter comeback against to survive by 1 point.
How do you compare a game where Wells plays 1.5 qtrs against WKU vs a full game against App?
Wells is a mediocre QB. He doesn't equal 32 extra points in half a game. WKU offense is absolutely for real. This will be the best team App has played in a bowl game and its not even close.

Well when he is the starting QB for the team playing for the division championship and he goes out in the first half and in your opinion, he is mediocre, what do you think they have at QB behind him?

Wells also threw for 3433 yds - rating of 142.5 and averaged 248 yds per game
To me, that is not Mediocre

Again some facts on Wells

By comparison
Chase was #23
Levi Lewis was #46
McCall was #54
and Sam Howell was #37

I'm considering making the trip to Boca for the bowl game. But, I'm curious to know which side of the stadium will be our side? I'd like to make sure the tickets I buy are on our side of the field. Any help is appreciated.

You can buy the, through the school. If you are a Yosef Club member, you can buy them online. Or you can call and order from the ticket office.

There is no option to select your seat on Apps website. All seats are one price and are assigned to you. That's not what I want. I want to pick my own seats, but ensure that I'm on our sideline. Any suggestions?

Maybe call the ticket office and ask? The seats are being assigned by Yosef points I believe. Although I suspect that you will be free to move about the stadium come game time.

Guess who is number 1 by over 1,000 yards???

Agree with you regarding Wells. If your offense can't stay on the field and keep drives going, you play right into WKU's hands. Marshall was up 14-3 when Wells went out.

The weather for Saturday isn’t looking to promising for a throwing team.

Possibly. Field is natural turf I think. Plus 40% chance of showers during the day with SE winds 12 mph. Maybe WXAPP has more accurate info.
