Appalachian State did not lose to Citadel because of the Option, they lost to Citadel because Citadel has more disciplined players. You can have ALL the skill in the world, but the type of players it takes to run the option successfully are way different than APP's players. If App could have athleticism and discipline they would be doing a lot better. Embarrassed by the thugs we have running around in Boone-Town.

lucky this game isn't already over, offensive line is playing bad, getting dominated, Price, don't know what the hell he is doing, 5 drops!! Wofford got hosed on that last play, it was an obvious foward pass, yet, somehow, we are still in the game. Dont understand our defense, first 2 drives we are discipline, staying in our lanes, and we stopped them cold. After that, its the Cit all over again. Better score on the opening second half drive.

It had no bearing on the outcome-but how do you call the personal foul on the hit on the QB in the 4th quarter? A team that runs the option with a lot of misdirection, there's no way to know who has the ball and the QB has to be a fair target.
Otherwise congratulations to the little yapping dogs for whipping us all day on the line of scrimmage. We had our chances, but they beat us up pretty good.

Apphole, I am sorry that you thought that some of the Wofford players were classless. I did not get to go to the game- I got stuck at work (damned outage). So I can't truly comment one way or the other about what went down. But I'll have to admit that I'm not totally convinced that part of this is not just you being a sore loser. And you did post earlier that you were planning on heckling Stephon Shelton, but that's neither here nor there. If there was any taunting going on by Wofford players, coaches and/or fans, I will say that this behavior is unacceptable. As you suggested, it is not the way Ayers teaches his team to act.
As for the game, it was a very hard-fought win by the Terriers and a great way to bounce back after last week's disappointment. And when ASU plays the Eagles, I can promise you that I will be the biggest Mountaineer fan ever!

But I'll have to admit that I'm not totally convinced that part of this is not just you being a sore loser. And you did post earlier that you were planning on heckling Stephon Shelton, but that's neither here nor there. If there was any taunting going on by Wofford players, coaches and/or fans, I will say that this behavior is unacceptable. As you suggested, it is not the way Ayers teaches his team to act.
I was on the sidelines and I can say that yes, there was taunting from the Wofford bench to the fans on the east side. When your last two trips to the same venue have resulted in beatdowns, I suppose the realization that you're going to win is enough to make any sideline excited, but it certainly was out of character from typical Ayers-coached teams.
Welcome to AGS, new Wofford fans. Not sure if you know it, but you've had a pretty darn good team for awhile and didn't need a win over a young ASU squad to prove it.

Seems to be the pattern for the last 5 years... Loads of talent, no discipline.
In this case, it's loads of talent, no health.
In the past five years, it was loads of talent, no coaching.

True to form, all players from both teams did partake in the post game prayer that ASU always holds. I believe they're the first road team this season to have everyone stay on the field.
Any Terrier fans make the trip for the first time?

I actually still think a few disappointed fans might be making a mountain out of a molehill (and they already have enough mountains in Boone), but again I wasn't there so I can't say for sure. It just sounds so un-Wofford like, yet so much like overly excited 18-22 year olds getting caught up in a moment. It's tricky.

Apphole, I am sorry that you thought that some of the Wofford players were classless. I did not get to go to the game- I got stuck at work (damned outage). So I can't truly comment one way or the other about what went down. But I'll have to admit that I'm not totally convinced that part of this is not just you being a sore loser. And you did post earlier that you were planning on heckling Stephon Shelton, but that's neither here nor there. If there was any taunting going on by Wofford players, coaches and/or fans, I will say that this behavior is unacceptable. As you suggested, it is not the way Ayers teaches his team to act.
As for the game, it was a very hard-fought win by the Terriers and a great way to bounce back after last week's disappointment. And when ASU plays the Eagles, I can promise you that I will be the biggest Mountaineer fan ever!
Wouldn't surprise me if it happened. Happened at GSU in 2010, too. Hell, it even extended to the coaches that year.

Or maybe Wofford is just another college football team with college football players just like everyone else. Has that ever crossed your mind?

I have a hard time sympathizing with GSU fans on the "the other team was taunting us" argument. When you stick an extremely rowdy student body directly behind the opposing team's bench and opposing fans, give them hell for four hours, and then get upset when those players and fans give it to you on the way back out of the stadium...well, I just don't have a lot of sympathy.
Places like KBS and Paulson take pride in intimidating the other team. I just don't get out of my chair in outrage when the other team lets you know that the tactics did not work at the end of the game.

Good post. It doesn't excuse any kind of unsportsmanlike behavior on the part of a Wofford in Paulson or KBS, but it certainly helps explain it.

An ASU fan asked me at work today how much Jerry paid the refs. This is one Appy that wasn't so happy, in fact his work wasn't snappy and it was also downright crappy. I just told him to take his L like a man and stop being a sore loser. He then told me F you...original comeback. But I decided not to tell anyone of his rude language, as I figure he's gone through enough pain this weekend and he's normally a standup guy.

Running over to the sideline, raising the roof, yelling stuff, hand to the ear, the works. On every big wofford play in the second half.
I understand that you have the upper hand against THE biggest name team I'm the subdivision, but it was pretty disgraceful.
No sour grapes about the game itself, I just expected more from an Ayers program.
That's really immature. And surprising considering the sportsmanship they displayed when they came to Paulson (staying on the field for the alma mater). Then again, perhaps they were a bit more humble after being handed a loss. I'm sure their adrenaline got the best of them, but there is still no need for behavior like that. Coach Ayers probably took note and said something to the involved players though.

Maybe so, but if that's the case, so is putting 70 points on the board. While it might be alot of sour grapes, don't act like WC fans would simply ignore the same thing happening at Gibbs. Wofford isn't above a little showboating once in awhile.

players celebrating in a conference game at a venue of which they have had a hard time winning-okay
fans rushing the field from a quarterfinal victory from a program that's won 6 NCs....kind of annoying, but it's whatever.

I still wonder why police/security didn't stop those fans from rushing the field. They have never let Wofford students/fans rush the field/court at football or basketball games no matter how big of a win occurred.

I know this thread is about Wofford vs App, two teams that I don't like see losing, but after seeing some comments about rushing the field, I can't help but respond.
If the Griz beat ISU this Saturday @ Washington/Grizzly, I'm not sure that even SEAL Team 6 could stop the Grizzly faithful from rushing the field, and takin' down the goal posts!

If Jerry paid the refs, he got a lousy ROI. Just saying...
Unless you're referring to Jerry Richardson? In which case, he may have dumped them Marty Hurney's monthly salary. xnodx

If I were conspiratorially minded I'd almost believe that the string of bad calls against the Panthers Sunday were payback by the refs for Richardson's stance in the recent strike/lockout.

They were playing the Cowboys, a team that ALWAYS gets calls. The NFL jizzes all over itself when it comes to the Cowboys. They do all they can to get them in the playoffs. I hate the Cowboys, mainly because they are league darlings and because many of their fans have never been anywhere near Dallas and probably couldn't find it on a map.

+1 for the Cowboy hate, but given that the three calls were all pretty close together late in the game and arguably cost the Panthers the game (especially the phantom time out) I'm not dismissing the refs getting a little payback.
