Game Thread 12/14: App State vs Delaware

[93henfan]

Congrats to all the faithful App State fans. Enjoy your moment in the sun. You are true champions. You have overcome the incompetence of the MEAC crew and shown that you won this game fair and square.

Congrats on the 3-peat Mountaineer fans!

[appstate38]

Time to get Trey in the game!!!!

[FCS Preview]

Congratulations Delaware on a great season.

Congratulations Appalachian State on third consecutive National Championship!


sig updated, too...

[Purple For Life]

Well, you have a good team there in Northern Iowa that unfortunately can't win the big game. I understand your frustrations, but it must really suck never to have won a championship, so you're forgiven. Good luck next year.

xrolleyesx Gee, and your team isn't winning one this year either. Give it up. You are done.

Congrats on the 3-peat Mountaineer fans!

I highly doubt the refs accounted for the 4 TD difference in the score.....Deleware is just not playing up to par....

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

Congrats on the 3-Peat.....

[mrklean]

Congrats App. St.

[TheValleyRaider]

ASU kicks off, taken at the 8, returned to the 25. 1st and 10 Blue Hens

42-14 ASU
5:56 4th

[Rob Iola]

Just flat out better athletes, better coaching, and better execution - very very impressive - how'd these guys lose 2 games?

[patssle]

How many starting seniors on App?

[thirdgendin]

Just flat out better athletes, better coaching, and better execution - very very impressive - how'd these guys lose 2 games?

Conference teams are much more accustomed to the ASU scheme. Non-conference teams seem to not know what hit them!

[Rob Iola]

Shame for Flacco and Cuff - they've played their hearts out - Flacco in particular has a very bright future in the NFL.

[lizrdgizrd]

Just flat out better athletes, better coaching, and better execution - very very impressive - how'd these guys lose 2 games?
The UM distraction + AE injury probably had something to do with it. xnodx

Not to mention Jayson Foster. xeekx

[thirdgendin]

Yikes, please take the mic off of the ASU players on the sideline.

[Aho_Old_Guy]

I went out to eat at a restaurant in Newark. The waitress I had had been married 3 times but she was still a virgin. I couldn't believe it.

She said her first husband was a OB/GYN and all he wanted to do was look at it. Her second husband was a psychiatrist and all he wanted to do was talk about it.

Her third husband was a Delaware fan. All he could say was . . .

"Wait until next year"

[HI54UNI]

Congrats to Coach Moore and ASU on the win.

Props to Delaware on a great season.

[lizrdgizrd]

Man I wish I could have been at this game. xnonono2x

[patssle]

Ha nice sign...been Lynched.

[thirdgendin]

Congrats to ASU and Coach Moore - amazing run you guys have had.

[TheValleyRaider]

4th down coming for the Hens near midfield, they'll keep pushing, going for it. Flacco goes for it all, too far. Turnover on Downs. 1st and 10 ASU at their 47

42-14 ASU
3:38 4th

[patssle]

HAHAHA another TD

[thirdgendin]

Go Trey Elder!!

[LehighFan11]

OMG TREY ELDER!!!!!!!!!!!

[HI54UNI]

TD Trey Elder

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

TD ASU xlolx

Is GSU's record of 59 points in the NC game in jeopardy?


Nah...

[lizrdgizrd]

HOLY CRAP! ELDER WITH THE TD!!!!!!

[APPALACHIANstate]

YEAH, TREY ELDER!!!

[FCS Preview]

Stupid celebration penalties...let them celebrate..

[appstate38]

Trey can run too!!!
Way to go out MAN

[Bettina90]

Need some ASU player interviews.

[TheValleyRaider]

Now there's a cap-off. Trey Elder takes the snap and takes it to the house. TOUCHDOWN Elder! Taunting penalty again, but no one cares. PAT is GOOD

49-14 ASU
3:29 4th

[HI54UNI]

Nice way for Elder to end his career.

[NativeAppy]

Thank You Trey!

[lizrdgizrd]

Penalty on that one? For running to the end zone? xconfusedx

[LehighFan11]

Stupid celebration penalties...let them celebrate..

Totally agree...CONGRATS APP

[patssle]

Here come the fans...

[HI54UNI]

This 3:29 is going to last forever.

[lizrdgizrd]

Moron fans! There's still 3 minutes to go. xnonono2x

[Bettina90]

WTF are the ASU fans doing? Too stupid to know the GD game is not over yet?

[HI54UNI]

TD UD

[LehighFan11]

THIS IS GETTING UGLY

[patssle]

What a crazy ending.

[Bettina90]

Somewhere, Miss Teen South Carolina is laughing.

[lizrdgizrd]

TD UD. Bad throw for that. xnonono2x

[FCS Preview]

Onsides kick?

[TheValleyRaider]

Appalachian State to kickoff from their 7 1/2 yard line from the penalties. Kick is taken at the 25, and Duncan takes it all the way, TOUCHDOWN Hens!

Duncan earns himself a Taunting penalty, and Keeler has to be restrained by the officals from running too far on the field to address him

PAT is GOOD

42-21 ASU
3:18 4th

[Purple For Life]

Congrats to all the faithful App State fans. Enjoy your moment in the sun. You are true champions. You have overcome the incompetence of the MEAC crew and shown that you won this game fair and square.

Congrats on the 3-peat Mountaineer fans!

OWNED: AND WAY TO HIT A COP, REAL CLASSY!!!!!!

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

WOW.......Thanks guys.......making everyone look bad...........

[TCisMYhero]

UNI SIGN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HI54UNI]

What kind of crappy security to they have in Chatty? This is ridiculous.

[Panthers_Blue]

Get these damn fans back in the seats

[lizrdgizrd]

You stupid fans get back in the dang stands! xmadx

[LehighFan11]

I hope this doesn't get ugly...please dont end it like this app

[patssle]

Game is over...who gives a damn about the fans.

[Panthers_Blue]

It was like this last week when App beat Richmond

[lizrdgizrd]

Refs YOU NEED TO STOP THE GAME AND GET CONTROL.

[gokats85]

C'mon guys, act like you've been there before, STAY IN THE DAMN STANDS!

[AshevilleApp]

App fans need to act like they've been there before.....

[TheValleyRaider]

Hens kicking off from their own 15, but ASU takes their last TimeOut first

[Panthers_Blue]

What about the safety of all the players, staff, coaches and everyone else working the sidelines

[Bettina90]

What the hell is wrong with the ASU fans? "Moron Fan Sideline Theory" Phd candidates?

[AshevilleApp]

Night Game = Lots of tailgating = lots of drunks

[lizrdgizrd]

This is embarrassing.

[mtgrizfan4life]

Kudos to APP STATE, and Kudos to Delewares coach for chewing ass of the punk that threw the ball at the fans. APP STATE fans, you are about to cost your team, wait until the game is officially over to CELEBRATE!!!!!! I hope a fan does not get their ass kicked by a player or a fan is not stupid enough to rub this into anyone associated with Deleware.

[patssle]

The fans do this in Boone. They obviously have done this before and know how to act.

[slycat]

app st fans are embarrassing. show some class. too bad they arent as good as the team.

congrats to the app st team. and to the classy app st fans still in their seats.

[Pageoner]

LOL @ him hitting the pig!

[thirdgendin]

Wow, this is crazy. I can guarantee that NO ONE will ever be allowed to sit on the hill again in Chattanooga.

"The precedent has been set in Boone."

[TheValleyRaider]

Now the kickoff comes. Taken by ASU at the 25, returned to the 40. 1st and 10 Mountaineers

49-21 ASU
3:11 4th

[NYJMUSupporter]

What a classlass group of fans!!! You should be ashamed! Way to tarnish your championship! Bush league!

[TCisMYhero]

I hope the UD players can get off of the field without an incident.

ASU fans are a complete embarassment to all of Division II football. that's what we freaking look like right now. Worse than a damn highschool game. EMBARASSING. Please let us move up so we don't have to be assosiated with this embarassment

[slycat]

The fans do this in Boone. They obviously have done this before and know how to act.

thats no excuse.

[minuteman65]

That's embarrassing. And this is coming from a guy who goes to a school that rioted after losing last year's championship...

[Panthers_Blue]

When he hit the cop, was the cop kind of going after him?

Dear Appy State Fans on the Field right now:

You are stereotyped as hillbillies. Don't act like it. You are damaging the reputation of your own university.

PS: Is Miss South Carolina down there right now?

[NYJMUSupporter]

The university should be ashamed! Conduct yourself with some dignity! Your university is a joke!

[JMU-MRD-DAD]

TAKE A KNEE........CMON.......

[lizrdgizrd]

Trey is playing hard out there!

[patssle]

Why is this embarassing? The fans are standing ont he sidelines wiaitng for the game to end being good natured. I don't see them rushing the field or rushing the Deleware bench.

There are stands, fences, and walls for a reason.

game over...

CONGRATS, ASU!

[TheValleyRaider]

ASU running out the clock, this should finish it off

Delaware 21

Congratulations Appalachian State Mountaineers, 2007 Division I National Champions! xhurrayx xhurrayx xhurrayx

[gokats85]

Game over, now hopefully no one gets hurt.

[MCCat]

Country come to town!! WOW...talk about looking "low rent!"

[LehighFan11]

CONGRATS ON A 3 PEAT....everyone else get off App St ..its their fans..ur school would do the same thing if they just won 3 straight NCs....sit back and enjoy greatness...dont hate

[AshevilleApp]

The university should be ashamed! Conduct yourself with some dignity! Your university is a joke!

Yes, Yes, and you should take back that last statement...that's my f'in alma mater. Making a blanket statement about a college from the reaction of a small minority of its fans from one sport is BUSH LEAGUE in itself

[slycat]

congrats on the title app st.

[gsu6trophies]

CLASSLESS HILLBILLIES

[cats2506]

ASU won and would have had they not had the ref on their side, too bad their team and fans didnt show a little class.

[Bettina90]

Wow. ASU winning a lot of fans tonight. Michigan seems like a long time ago.

[lizrdgizrd]

ESPN couldn't switch away from it any faster than they did! xlolx

[AshevilleApp]

At least our players aren't criminals. xwhistlex

Beat me to it, I was floored when I read that....

Yeah, you can't tell me everyone that is ragging on App State for being "classless" wouldn't do the same damn thing in their position. Sheesh! Sour grapes.

FYI: I've had my fun, now I'm done. Off to Crapsville!

[NYJMUSupporter]

Good they wanted to cut away from the embarrassment that is the APP state fans. Bush league!!! I feel bad for Jerry Moore. He is a class act. Too bad the fans do not emulate the coach!

[AshevilleApp]

From the darlings of the media world to classless hillbillies.....man life's tough on the top ;)

[GrizzlyBill]

All they had to do was stop plat in the game until the fans cleared the field.

Call official TO and get the coaches together at midfield and make the fans leave the level of the playing field before play can resume.

[WildcatFan]

Storming the field on your home turf is one thing. Standing on the sidelines with over 3 minutes to play is not cool. Who would have been sued if one of those fans was plowed over. And what gives you the right to tear down the goal posts at a field that you are a guest at. Hopefully no one gets killed. Ridiculous.

[Mountaineer]

From the darlings of the media world to classless hillbillies.....man life's tough on the top ;)

xlolx xlolx xthumbsupx

[lizrdgizrd]

To the haters: Our university is not the same as a small number of our drunken fans. You can believe that we are embarrassed by the behavior of those folks or not but it won't change the fact that we don't like that behavior either. Hate all you want, but we're still the first 3 time champions EVER.

[appstate38]

CLASSLESS HILLBILLIES

WOW that was original

Since you have never played there. Chatty takes down the goals before that can happen. Nice try though

Who tore down the goal posts? Those are removable posts and were being taken down by the local crew. xnonono2x

[Block-A]

Yeah.

I HATE the Patriots.

Really

Haha it is starting to seem like that.

Nice red dot yah got there Betty

[speechpanther]

Students did not go for the Goalposts. That was good. If they wanted them, they could have taken them.

[LehighFan11]

haha laugh it up. You guys will get whats coming to you next year. You thought you have a bullseye on you now, wait till next year! Enjoy this one, your not going to be celebrating another for a while!

[WildcatFan]

Since you have never played there. Chatty takes down the goals before that can happen. Nice try though

Thanks for the reminder I forgot.xeekx xeekx

I stand corrected about the goal posts. This was still a very dangerous situation.

[NYJMUSupporter]

Good laugh it up! You will see! haha I cant wait until 9/20! You got lucky when we fumbled, we will not make the same mistake next year!

[lizrdgizrd]

Good laugh it up! You will see! haha I cant wait until 9/20! You got lucky when we fumbled, we will not make the same mistake next year!
Seems like we'll have an actual defensive line next season too. Might make a bit of a difference. xsmiley_wix

[Block-A]

You got lucky when we fumbled, we will not make the same mistake next year!

Maybe next time, we let you recover it. Just for the drama, y' know?

:-p

[Mountaineer]

Good laugh it up!

I am not concerned about my red dot, better to have one red dot and speak my mind then 8 greens and be afraid.

[Rob Iola]

Great game by a great team - forget the distractions, ASU was clearly playing at a different level - congratulations!

[boonegoon]

Yeah, you can't tell me everyone that is ragging on App State for being "classless" wouldn't do the same damn thing in their position. Sheesh! Sour grapes.

Seeya next season!!!

[Pantherpower]

Congrats Mountaineers. Would've liked to have seen what the Panthers could've done against you.

Yeah man you are right!!!!

And by my calculations... It should be about 12 months before we celebrate number 4... So it will be a little while. But hey we can wait.

[speechpanther]

Pains me to say it, but refs aside, I still don't think anyone was going to beat Appy State tonight.

[caribbeanhen]

I have never personally witnessed a game where the refs were clearly biased. There is no question in this one. Delaware is playing App St and the refs. This is really disgraceful for a championship game.xmadx

and you know the mob is working its way back into the sports scene;)

The Feds might want to take a closer look at this

[OB55]

App State plays at a different speed and a different level than the rest of FCS.
They would have won this game with the greatest officials working the game.
The security at this game was entirely bogus.
The management of this event was entirely bogus.
Many of the posts on this thread were entirely uncalled for.Sour grapes, here have one...

Funny, you sound just like a Delaware fan at the game who was classy enough to flip off an elderly man...

Early in the 4th Qtr
Girl: You guys suck. Your University sucks. No one cares about you. Our SAT scores are so much higher.

Man: Then why did you drive 10 hours and pay to get in? Did you think this was the Science Bowl?

Girl: Asshole. (flips the bird and sits down.... and quietly sneaks out after ASU scores another TD)

[jus10asu]

HAHAHAHAHA everyone is so bitter. All people can do is try to downplay ASU's success. Anybody else's school has no more "classy" fans than App. We just won 3 straight NC games, of course the fans are excited. The fans coming on the field were due to about 10 drunk ones who ran out there and then the people at the top of the hill started pushing the ones below. They all knew the possibility of getting ran into by a player. Talk about classy, lets throw a football at the fans because we can't contain our composure on the field. I agree the field rushing was way premature but I wanna see you in the middle of that crowd and try to stand still while you have 3000 people pushing you from behind. We did not interrupt the game on the field so get over it all you cry babies that have nothing better to do than whine about the fans. Aren't fans and cheering and getting excited about your school what makes the game of football even greater than it already is.
