[igo4uni]

wow

[UDChE89]

RU needs a stop here.

Is Rutgers playing? Richmond's UR.. xlolx xlolx xlolx

[TheValleyRaider]

Nice catch there, well placed ball

[Griswold]

1st down....Mountaineers!

[lizrdgizrd]

What year is Corman? ANyone know?

[FCS Preview]

RU needs a stop here.

RU = Rutgers

UR = Richmond

[igo4uni]

running clock.

[ButlerGSU]

Read back:

"oh wow, Richmond..."

"Nice drive by App"

Feel free to add me to your ignore if I'm keeping you from enjoying the game however.

[The Older Gentleman]

RU needs a stop here.

Better wake up the D

[igo4uni]

AE is tough.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Is Rutgers playing? Richmond's UR.. xlolx xlolx xlolx

....that would be Radford University...another Virginia school...near Virginia Tech...xnodx

[lizrdgizrd]

Holding App

[igo4uni]

holding.

[FCS Preview]

holding against App State
still 2nd down

[Aho_Old_Guy]

The most useless cheer heard in Watauga County tonight: "Defense" (clap clap) "Defense" (clap clap) "Defense" . . . .

[lizrdgizrd]

Been a pretty clean game so far.

[lizrdgizrd]

TD to Cardwell!

Way to make up for the holding!

[TheValleyRaider]

Wide open, good call at the line

[LehighFan11]

great play....perfect play action

[igo4uni]

that may be the game.

[AlphaSigMD]

Any word on attendance tonight?

[The Older Gentleman]

Oye.

[ButlerGSU]

App's offense might just be too much for Richmond, wow they are good.

[FCSFAN]

ASU leads UR 49-35 10:11 4Q

[VT Wildcat Fan53]

Who in FCS is better than Armanti?

[igo4uni]

Can Richmond come back??

[lizrdgizrd]

that may be the game.

Still lots of time. This isn't last year's Mountaineers. xnonox

[AshevilleApp]

Courman is a junior I think

[igo4uni]

Any word on attendance tonight?

lots.

[LehighFan11]

Who in FCS is better than Armanti?

Who in the FBS is better than Armanti? Heisman!

[igo4uni]

Still lots of time. This isn't last year's Mountaineers. xnonox

sorry.

[GannonFan]

Could be it for the Spiders - not scoring on the last 2 offensive possessions might've doomed them - can't not score this late in the game in an offensive shootout.

[ERASU2113]

Edwards stats:
13-15, 169 yds, 2 TDs
30 carries, 281 yds, 4 Tds

[appstate38]

This may have been covered, but you are looking at the front runner for the Walter Payton award next year. Look out FCS, We have Armanti for 2 more years.

[AlphaSigMD]

Well, it looks full...very very good for a spontaneous night game...

[FCSFAN]

84 points in 50 minutes, means 16 points to go

[bobbythekidd]

Read back:

"oh wow, Richmond..."

"Nice drive by App"

Feel free to add me to your ignore if I'm keeping you from enjoying the game however.
Nope, I went back and looked at your post history. You are not quite the doucebag I accused you of. Sorry about that.:o

I take it back.

[LehighFan11]

84 points in 50 minutes, means 16 points to go

Richmond could use all of those 16

[Cranium716]

Richmond's defense might as well take a nap on the field. They look exhausted!

[lizrdgizrd]

Nice to see our kick return coverage is getting better.

[appstate38]

Back to doing a good job of Containing Hightower

[B&G]

Announcer couldn't even do a game recap b/c he's too distracted by Heisman interviews.

[FCS Preview]

Nice gain for hightower.

[lizrdgizrd]

Nice run Hightower!

[SeattleGriz]

Huh. Richmond has gone to the Montana plan of being predictable on offense. I am betting they run on first down.

[igo4uni]

Here comes RU

[FCS Preview]

jussttt a bit outside

[lizrdgizrd]

Overthrown pass.

[FCSFAN]

Announcer couldn't even do a game recap b/c he's too distracted by Heisman interviews.that really sucked the big one

[FCS Preview]

run stuffed
3rd and long

[lizrdgizrd]

Nice job by the D line so far on the run game. xnodx

[GannonFan]

Being behind all night and not having a good enough pass game is killing Richmond's running game - Appy's got 8 in the box almost all night.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Here comes RU

It's UR.....not RUxnodx

[lizrdgizrd]

INT! Lynch!

[GannonFan]

ballgame

[LehighFan11]

LYNCH

[thirdgendin]

Lynch does it. Ball game.

[TheValleyRaider]

Of course it was Lynch

[Griswold]

LYNCH

[FCS Preview]

intercepted by Cory Lynch!

[FCSFAN]

INT Lynch, the ultimate ballhog!

[AlphaSigMD]

Corey Lynch! COREY LYNCH!!!

[Aho_Old_Guy]

Even giving up 35 points ASU has played great defense . . .

[appstate38]

Corey Lynch.... That's a WRAP!

[ButlerGSU]

That sealed the deal, pack your bags App fans.

[GoldandBlack]

Now that interception just might be the stake in the heart.......

[igo4uni]

not good for RU

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Corey Lynch finally does something this game!

[GannonFan]

I'm not sure he could throw it somewhere with more black shirts - yikes

[Cranium716]

Who the hell is Richmond's left tackle? That's the second time in three plays that he just stood there as the DE ran by him!

[tralfangar]

undefeated when he gets a pick

[lizrdgizrd]

Lynch should be drafted by the Panthers. xnodx

[SeattleGriz]

Huh. Shotgun formation on 3rd down...and a pass. I would have never guessed.

[thirdgendin]

Lynch has an amazing knack for finding the ball. One of the best I've ever seen.

[AlphaSigMD]

Wow! Here we go boys...don't let up on the gas...go for the win, go for the victory!

[FCSFAN]

UR needs a break now to get back into one score territory

[bobbythekidd]

Lynch is my other brother that was separated at birth.:D

[igo4uni]

It's UR.....not RUxnodx

Ok.

[VT Wildcat Fan53]

The final nail?

[igo4uni]

UR needs a break now to get back into one score territory

yup.

[Nebuta]

Poor decision on that pass. Looked like 3 were around the WR

[appstate38]

Lynch is my other brother that was separated at birth.:D

YOU WISH!!!!xlolx xrotatehx xlolx

[AlphaSigMD]

Lynch should be drafted by the Panthers. xnodx

Well they took hoover from WCU...

[lizrdgizrd]

Still lots of time on the clock. We need another score to put it away.

[FCS Preview]

another first down carry by Richardson

[igo4uni]

Still lots of time on the clock. We need another score to put it away.

we'll see.

[FCS Preview]

Edwards would have had the TD if he didn't look back...

[lizrdgizrd]

34 yards for Edwards.

[AlphaSigMD]

Another Record for Armanti!

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

AE.....AE....AE.......

[igo4uni]

AE is a stud.

[lizrdgizrd]

313 Yards for the game.

[TheValleyRaider]

Great run by Edwards, Richmond has no answer for ASU's offense

At least not that I've seen in this game

[thirdgendin]

313 Yards for the game.

20 more to tie AP.

[Griswold]

RUN ARMANTI RUN...313 yards xbowx

[eagle1]

I will be the first to say it.... Armanti Edwards for Heismann. Go Eagles!!!

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Armanti Edwards needs 19 yards to break Adrian Peterson's record for rushing yards in a game xnutsx xnutsx.

[lizrdgizrd]

Aside from that one dive by Armanti, both teams have been playing like professionals tonight. xthumbsupx

[AshevilleApp]

300+ yds for AE

[bobbythekidd]

15 or so more yards and AE sets the new record for rushing yards in a playoff game.

[igo4uni]

I will be the first to say it.... Armanti Edwards for Heismann. Go Eagles!!!

Sure, why not??

[Aho_Old_Guy]

Who had 105 on the over / under ???

[ButlerGSU]

So who will meet App in Nooga next Friday?

[Cranium716]

UR's defense looks like they don't even care anymore. xsmhx

[FCSFAN]

that's the game!

[FCS Preview]

TD APPALACHIAN STATE!!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Another TD to Cardwell!

[The Older Gentleman]

Good night.

[igo4uni]

game over.

[eagle1]

and the dude can pass. Go Eagles!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Ok, I think I'll call the game here.

[AlphaSigMD]

WOW! 7 TD's for AE. Unreal.

[FCS Preview]

Start the bus, Richmond....

[TheValleyRaider]

So, if ASU wins the coinflip to be the home team, will they still choose to wear their white unis, a la the Steelers in the last Super Bowl?

[igo4uni]

So who will meet App in Nooga next Friday?

SIU.

[GoldandBlack]

http://mikespeaksout.blogs.com/mikespeaksout/images/fat_lady_sings.jpg

[FCSFAN]

ASU leads UR 55-35 PAT blocked 5:27 4Q

[AshevilleApp]

Cardwell second TD!!!

[brownbear]

So, if ASU wins the coinflip to be the home team, will they still choose to wear their white unis, a la the Steelers in the last Super Bowl?

Is ASU in white tonight?

[thirdgendin]

ASU leads UR 56-35 5:27 4Q

55-35. PAT was blocked.

[VT Wildcat Fan53]

Congrats Armanti, Lynch, Coach Moore, .... Good luck next week. Let's hope you are facing off against Delaware. Great game, great crowd, .....

[ButlerGSU]

Is ASU in white tonight?

No, all black.

[McNeese_beat]

I don't know if anybody's ever said this but...


Armanti Edwards is purdy dang good....xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx xbowx

[bobbythekidd]

and the dude can pass. Go Eagles!!!
I expect to hear this many times in '08.

[thirdgendin]

Armanti has 495 total yards and 7 TDs tonight. Maybe the best individual performance I've seen.

[LehighFan11]

So, if ASU wins the coinflip to be the home team, will they still choose to wear their white unis, a la the Steelers in the last Super Bowl?

Nah they have to go black on blacks

[AlphaSigMD]

ASU will be the visitors regardless. They are the guarenteed sellout

[SeattleGriz]

55-35. PAT was blocked.

WHEEE! Victory!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

There's Peacock!

[FCSFAN]

there's Peacock with the trophies again

[ButlerGSU]

Nope, I went back and looked at your post history. You are not quite the doucebag I accused you of. Sorry about that.:o

I take it back.

We all make mistakes.

[appstate38]

Alright Guys.... Let's get Trey some snaps for his last home game.

[eagle1]

As an EWU fan, I don't feel too bad now since App seems to be in control. Maybe it is the Hefeiwiezen (Sp) that I have been drinking but I am sure its that the Mountaineers are that good. Go Eagles!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

What? We missed the PAT?

[FCS Preview]

the quarterback is toast...

[lizrdgizrd]

Now we know why Jerry sticks around and keeps winning. He gets cake if he does!

[appstate38]

Now the question.... Can Delaware or SIU score enough points to keep up!

[spelunker64]

Nice job App

[FCS Preview]

pass complete
clock continues to run

[bodoyle]

there's Peacock with the trophies again

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.

[FCS Preview]

3:50 to go in the game

Congatulations, Appalachian State Mountianeers.

[tralfangar]

24,140!!!

[appstate38]

Time for the GOAL POSTS!

[lizrdgizrd]

This is the win I asked for last week. xnodx

[unicat87]

Now the question.... Can Delaware or SIU score enough points to keep up!

Nope! Congrats to the Apps! -unicat87

[FCS Preview]

I was hoping to get up to 1000 posts during this game.
going to be close now...

[AlphaSigMD]

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.

Hey, lay off the peacock. He's one of the best things going for our school. When you win 2 championships, your chancellor can carry them around all he wants.

[ButlerGSU]

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.

I don't know if I'd go that far but I know we'd never see President Grube doing that.

[appstate38]

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.

While I will agree that I get tried of seeing him walking around with the trophies, I can say that I have never seen any other Chancellor be this excited about his football team. Don't hate just enjoy the ride.

[lizrdgizrd]

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.
Sorry, but our Chancellor supports our football team. You tell me when he starts taunting the other team and I'll change my mind. xrolleyesx

[FCSFAN]

Armanti leads UR 55-35 3:45 4Q

Trey's turn

[spelunker64]

Armanti leads UR 55-35 3:45 4Q

Trey's turn

Isn't that the truth

[FCS Preview]

Trey Elder in the game

[bodoyle]

Sorry, but our Chancellor supports our football team. You tell me when he starts taunting the other team and I'll change my mind. xrolleyesx

having the students carry you around gloating about your 2 titles is classless in my book.

[LehighFan11]

Armanti couldn't of had any better of a game. Congrats to App St and AE. Good Luck next wk!

[lizrdgizrd]

Elder with a nice run!

[Griswold]

Is ASU in white tonight?

No but they've worn all white the last two years in Chattanooga!

[bodoyle]

Hey, lay off the peacock. He's one of the best things going for our school. When you win 2 championships, your chancellor can carry them around all he wants.

I would be embarrassed if DeCenzo did that at CCU and he would get a phone call from me.

[AlphaSigMD]

Sorry, but our Chancellor supports our football team. You tell me when he starts taunting the other team and I'll change my mind. xrolleyesx

Exactly. Screw ESPN for trying to sling mud.

He has more spirit than any chancellor I've ever seen, and he's not content to sit in the ivory tower. He is down with the students and he shows he really cares about whats happening in the student body.

[lizrdgizrd]

having the students carry you around gloating about your 2 titles is classless in my book.
He's not gloating, he's cheering! I know you don't understand the difference, but it's there.

[FCSFAN]

"Proud as a peacock" isn't that a line from a HOT song?

[lizrdgizrd]

I would be embarrassed if DeCenzo did that at CCU and he would get a phone call from me.
And he'd care just as much as Peacock does about your opinion. xtwocentsx

[LehighFan11]

thank god espn calleout the chancellor. thats ridiculous. immature and cocky. atleast espn got 1 thing right tonight.

your an idoit. its great to see him supporting his school.

[FCSFAN]

RICHMOND RECOVERS A FUMBLE!!!!!!!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Did Moore fumble?

[mtgrizfan4life]

WOW, APP State is IMPRESSIVE, and Edwards is on a level of his own, even compared to BCS! There is no way in the world our Defense would hold App State under 35, under 40 would be an accomplishment. There is no way App State loses with a healthy Edwards!!! Congrats App State on 3 in a row!

[FCSFAN]

UR backups in too

[spelunker64]

RICHMOND RECOVERS A FUMBLE!!!!!!!!!

Comeback...xrolleyesx xsmhx

[AlphaSigMD]

I would be embarrassed if DeCenzo did that at CCU and he would get a phone call from me.

You'd rather your chancellor was cold and distant? You'd rather him sit in the box somewhere with the big money givers than be on the field.

Well, if thats the kind of environment you'd like to have, then you are welcome to it, but find just the way were are.

[FCS Preview]

dropped pass by hightower

[lizrdgizrd]

Richmond is a class act through and through. Great game!

[FCS Preview]

another flag

getting very sloppy here at the end

[FCSFAN]

... There is no way App State loses with a healthy Edwards...Well don't tell JMU that!

[AlphaSigMD]

WOW, APP State is IMPRESSIVE, and Edwards is on a level of his own, even compared to BCS! There is no way in the world our Defense would hold App State under 35, under 40 would be an accomplishment. There is no way App State loses with a healthy Edwards!!! Congrats App State on 3 in a row!

Not ready to give it to us yet, even though we played well tonight, we still have a way to go to get a 3rd NC.

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

App St. is HOT HOT HOT

[FCS Preview]

keep the clock running
1:30 to go.

[bodoyle]

I have no problem with a chancellor/president supporting the athletics being down on the field etc but when you have your students carry you on the sidelines with your 2 natl title trophies during a game that isnt even for the title? that's classless.

if u win next week, carry him all the way from 'nooga to boone, but not until then.

[LehighFan11]

Here come the students

[FCS Preview]

students pouring over the wall

[lizrdgizrd]

dropped pass by hightower

That was a bad pass.

[AlphaSigMD]

but we are still the champions...even now, why not show them?

[FCSFAN]

FINAL Appalachian State 55, Richmond 35 (with :13 left)

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

A very interesting story about Coach Moore...if my SoCon rival is going to win 3 straight, at least Coach Moore will be the coach that did it.

[thirdgendin]

Great. Charging the field with :13 to go.

[lizrdgizrd]

Get off the field you morons! xnonono2x

[bodoyle]

but we are still the champions...even now, why not show them?

why live in the past?

this year has been the most difficult for you guys to get through the playoffs.

and now charging the field and taking the FG posts down when you win 2 titles in a row?????

[FCS Preview]

last play of the game

FINAL SCORE

APP STATE 55, RICHMOND 35

CONGRATULATIONS MOUNTAINEERS

11th straight playoff win. New record for consecutive wins over consecutive seasons...

[TheValleyRaider]

Least they could do is wait for the clock to actually run down

[AlphaSigMD]

Wow...don't like that...ASU on the field with time left on the board. Wow...take the goalposts, but get them after the game...

[lizrdgizrd]

I have no problem with a chancellor/president supporting the athletics being down on the field etc but when you have your students carry you on the sidelines with your 2 natl title trophies during a game that isnt even for the title? that's classless.

He's there to keep the students pumped and excited. Hate all you want, but he's no braggart.

[LehighFan11]

GO APP!

Its not the past. Its the present. And if we win next weekend, I hope he has a 3rd arm surgically implanted so he can carry a 3rd one!!!!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Let's wait till the clock runs out to tear down the goalposts, eh?

[AlphaSigMD]

Its not the past. Its the present. And if we win next weekend, I hope he has a 3rd arm surgically implanted so he can carry a 3rd one!!!!!!

Can somebody photoshop a picture of what that might look like?xlolx xlolx xlolx

[eagle1]

Congrats App State! Best of luck in the championship game. Why don't you come out to Cheney next year to play the Eagles in an out of conference game. Go Eagles!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Its not the past. Its the present. And if we win next weekend, I hope he has a 3rd arm surgically implanted so he can carry a 3rd one!!!!!!
More likely he'll have Cobb carry one around. xlolx

[bodoyle]

He's there to keep the students pumped and excited. Hate all you want, but he's no braggart.

Why do you need to get students excited about a nationally televised game, in the playoffs??

Oh no he doesnt brag....xcoolx xrolleyesx xnonono2x havig your students carry you around with title trophies in a semi final game to "get them pumped up"? riiiight

I know you like appy and that's all fine and good, but take the blinders off buddy.

[mcveyrl]

Congratulations ASU!!! I was impressed with the way Richmond came back, but App showed why they are who we thought they were (oops...can I type that now DG is trying to trademark it!!)

BTW, what is APPs goal post budget?? You would think they'd just buy the tear down kind...

[B&G]

He's gonna have a mini-me created to carry the 3rd.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Let the kids have their fun. It's what makes the college game so great. The game was over and given App States accomplishments EVERYONE should have rushed the field. Very impressive. xbowx

[FCS Preview]

Its not the past. Its the present. And if we win next weekend, I hope he has a 3rd arm surgically implanted so he can carry a 3rd one!!!!!!

That's ok with me. Go ahead.

It is well known you are anti-ASU. Glad you could find something to gripe about in this game.

[bodoyle]

I've never seen Ga Southern do it when they won all their titles back in the day. I never thought I would say this, but try and be more like them.

[GannonFan]

Did some kids start carrying a backup goalpost? I could've sworn I saw them walking away with a pretty sizeable one even though both goalposts on the field were still standing - that just ain't right, having extra fake goalposts out there too. :D

[appstate38]

That's ok with me. Go ahead.

Need to change that Teal to Green because all I see is just plain jealousy.

Take it to another thread, because it is not needed here. xbawlingx

[bodoyle]

It is well known you are anti-ASU. Glad you could find something to gripe about in this game.

I dont have a problem with you guys winning this game. I'm cheering for the local team (SIU) in these playoffs.

And I'm not griping about the game at all. Your chancellor gets called out on espn for doing it so it isn't just me thinking he went above and beyond.

[AlphaSigMD]

It is well known you are anti-ASU. Glad you could find something to gripe about in this game.

Its ok, i think he's just upset that his team is 0-2 against us.

[bodoyle]

Need to change that Teal to Green because all I see is just plain jealousy.

What am I jealous of? This has nothign to do with Armanti, Richardson etc. I am jealous of your chancellor?xrolleyesx

Like I said, when he starts taunting the other team I'll call him out myself. xpeacex

[FCS Preview]

I've never seen Ga Southern do it when they won all their titles back in the day. I never thought I would say this, but try and be more like them.
OTOH, GSU never made it back to defend their title for a third time either...

Appalachian State is in unchartered territory. No team has ever had a chance at a 3rd straight title.

Let them enjoy this.

[ERASU2113]

Storming the field after a semi-final win is the norm at ASU. When we do it we do it well :D

[bodoyle]

OTOH, GSU never made it back to defend their title for a third time either...

I don't have a problem with them enjoying it, but he went above and beyond. He crossed the line and I'm not the only one thinking it.

[B&G]

Its ok, i think he's just upset that his team is 0-2 against us.

Man, I'm not even bringing CCU into it. I am impressed with what they've done with the program in such a short amount of time. ESPN's announcers are not exactly the beacons of wisdom I'd be siding with on any topic. Ask any of the ASU students, they love Peacock. That's what matters.

[AlphaSigMD]

I dont have a problem with you guys winning this game. I'm cheering for the local team (SIU) in these playoffs.

And I'm not griping about the game at all. Your chancellor gets called out on espn for doing it so it isn't just me thinking he went above and beyond.

This same ESPN crew that was interviewing FBS players during the game. Its kinda obvious they don't have their finger on the pulse of the FCS school the way the Chancellor Peacock does.

They aren't allowed to judge us, and neither are you.

We all love him and that's all that matters. When you win a title you;re free to celebrate anyway you want. Those trophies are to be celebrated and shared, not to collect dust in a trophy case.

[Block-A]

Appalachian State is in unchartered territory. No team has ever had a chance at a 3rd straight title.

I agree..., but... Can't we wait 'til time runs out...?

Wait, did you know that he does this every home game? It's not like he did this just for ESPN or the playoffs.

[appstate38]

What am I jealous of? This has nothign to do with Armanti, Richardson etc. I am jealous of your chancellor?xrolleyesx

So show me where its written that the Chancellor can't be a cheerleader for his team. He isn't taunting, just enjoying watching his University mow through their opponent.

Renaming you to BOZO!:p :p xbawlingx

[bodoyle]

aplha sig: What does the divisionof FCS and FBS have to do with the chancellor? You didn't see the Gators President doing that during the bowl game did you? NEver saw Jerry Krause of the Bulls do it. Never saw steinbrenner do it. Never saw Mt Union do it. etc etc etc

That's ok. I have the fro to be bozo! :)

I dont have a problem with that. This is what our presidents welcome statement...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98sD-LNtgF4

But he didn't do that on national tv trying to "pump the students up"

So now we have to conduct ourselves like everybody else. Be an individual for crying out loud. Great job BOZO!

Your chancellor can "cheerlead" all he wants. Have him sittin in the student section leading cheers...I dont care. It's not his enthuasiam that bothers me. It's his arrogance, immaturity and cockiness.

where can i get tickets??????????

Glad Peacock is not worried about impressing you. Wow he must be comfortable with who he is as a man. Not concerned about what others will think.... Unlike somebody on this board!

[seantaylor]

Is Peacock gay? He sounds like Bruno from Ali G.

You obviously dont read my posts if you think I am concerned with what others think of me.

That's actually damn funny if you think that!!xlolx xlolx xlolx

[jonmac]

You never see them at all. They're in their skybox counting their money. What a stupid thing to be discussing. It has nothing to do with you. As was said before I bet most students at Florida have never even spoken to the chancellor. An article about Peacock earlier this season stated that the writer couldn't even interview him at a local restaurant because so many students/alumni/locals kept coming up to him to speak and...gasp...he actually acknowledged them and spoke back. Just get over and pull for your team and quit looking for ways to bring us down. That most likely will happen on its own someday, I hope not though.

[Aho_Old_Guy]

Great game. Could have gone either way. Congrats to UR.

And how 'bout that ASU defense? Stepping up in the second half after those two quick scores tied the game. AE was the MVP but the "D" stood up when it counted!

Do you realize that Peacock didn't do that just because of ESPN? That's every home game, well except for that GSU game maybe. xbawlingx

If this keeps going, it could be more interesting than the 4th quarter

Jon,
I'm sure it will happen eventually, it's cyclical everywhere. I am sure your chancellor is very popular right now with the success of the football team etc. But just becuase someone is popular doesn't mean what they do is right.

Wasn't Hitler popular? CDB is popular in South Carolina, but not everything he does is right. DeCenzo is popular as well but he has screwed up too.

Take off the blinders!

[appstate38]

He would actually have to know what he was talking about. Peacock has been doing this for the last 2 years. But we can't expect him to be throughly versed in everything Appalachian.

[bodoyle]

Yes I am aware of that I've been to your place twice. ESPN simply pointed out what I've thought all along.

[ButlerGSU]

OTOH, GSU never made it back to defend their title for a third time either...

Appalachian State is in unchartered territory. No team has ever had a chance at a 3rd straight title.

Let them enjoy this.

Check your facts, we've played in 3 NC games in a row before, actually twice.

How in the world can you base your opinion by simply seeing him on ESPN have you ever talked with him and researched that opinion. Just saying, very strong words. I don't think he has ever rubbed our success in anyone's face. He is displaying the trophies, leading cheers, etc. to OUR fans. And he does this at every game, not just on ESPN.

That means you automatically loose this round, bodoyle. xlolx

Dude, that's just weak - you just compared a leader of a university who's cheering on his football team with a leader of facism who murdered millions of people. Weak. xnonono2x

[Block-A]

Armanti Edwards; 31 carries 313 yds 4TDs; 14-16 192 yds 3 TDs

Good lord, how could you ever beat that?

[eagle1]

I said it after last week and I will say it again. If App State didn't have Armanti Edwards they would be fairly mediocre on offense. He is that good. No disrespect for App State but he is the MAIN focal point of your offense. So far, no one has found a way to stop or even contain him. Best of luck App State in the Championship game and I would love to see the Mountaineers return a trip out to Cheney and take on the Eagles in the near future. Go Eagles!!!

[lizrdgizrd]

Check your facts, we've played in 3 NC games in a row before.
Did you win the first two or the last two?

[Block-A]

313 yds rushing is a D-I record for QB's....

[bodoyle]

No I didnt gannon. I compared 2 people who had/have a following and just because they have a following doesnt mean they are right.

I cna substitute Hitler with the Pope if that will m ake you feel better?

[93henfan]

Congrats to the Appysxthumbsupx See you next week, hopefully.

As I said earlier. Lead the cheers, sit with the students. I have NO PROBLEM with that whatsoever. But he crossed the line.
