Furman hits 37 yard FG... Fu 10 Apps 7

Scott Beckler nails a 37-yard field goal to put Furman up 10-7 early in the second half.

[thirdgendin]

Appalachian scores another TD on a Richardson run, making it 14-10 Mountaineers with 8:28 remaining in the 2nd quarter.

Williams is 11-for-11 today, I believe. Second straight year he has killed us.

[thirdgendin]

Furman stalls again inside the 20, and Beckler misses a 32-yard field goal. Still 14-10 ASU with just over 5 minutes left in the first half.

App decides to go for it on 4th and 14 from the Furman 30 in the last few seconds of the half, but Williams is sacked. Furman takes a knee and a 16-14 lead into the lockerrom at half.

[GaSouthern]

we won another socon game so this game is huge as far as our fate.

[thirdgendin]

The Paladins have taken the second half kickoff and driven down to the Appalachian red zone again. 3rd and 6 at the ASU 17.

[thirdgendin]

Incomplete pass. Beckler lines up for another field goal...34-yard attempt is GOOD!

[ChiefGSU275]

I am watching on CSS, and I am not impressed with App. States defense. Furman is running all over them.

[BlackSaturday]

GoAsu.com seems to be down....forced to listen to the FU crew... Apps up 31-26

[Tod]

How much time left? Who has the ball and where?

[BlackSaturday]

[BlackSaturday]

[GSUhooligan]

GO FOR TWO BOBBY!!!!

(at least this time it makes sense)

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

GO FOR 2!!

[BlackSaturday]

2 point conversion is good.... 34-31 FU 33 secs left.

[Pantherpower]

I know the whole go for two story, but you still should in this situation.

[blur2005]

Talk about a famous play, that 2 pt conversion...

[BlackSaturday]

Last second fg blocked FU wins 34-31.

[blur2005]

Man, that sucks.

[blur2005]

I was hoping there would be ANOTHER 34-34 OT game. Check out Illinois St. - WKU.

[Hansel]

Furman has shown a knack for winning close games this year

[Eaglegus2]

Furman wins!!!!!!!!!


34 - 31

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

ASU's run D had better shape up before next week :D

Still thought ASU looked pretty good, Furman is definitly no pushover, especially at home. Reminds me of our loss at FU last year.

*EDIT* Still can't decide who I wanted to win this one...ASU now has a conference loss, but I think ASU will be more fired up for us now that they have one conference loss.

[ChiefGSU275]

I just didnt know who to pull for. Yeah i know, a Furman win helps GSU out, but it still makes me wanna puke to see all those purple wearing nutcases happy. Blech.

[thirdgendin]

YYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!!

[fuEMO]

I like the last two minutes of the game — Ingle Time. Helluva game APPS. I thought for a while that a win for APP was destiny 2 tipped catches, one for a touchdown. APP can't bitch and moan about not playing well. And APP don't die, show up for Black Saturday and kick the Eagles asses.

[rokamortis]

Congrats Paladins!

[BlackSaturday]

Congrats Furman! Good luck the rest of the year.

[FUwolfpacker]

Good luck to you guys too BlackSaturday. Richie Williams is something special. I think you guys have to find another playmaker though because he was pretty much your only offense today (dropped passes by WR's and TE's).

It was an amazing game. Both sides were loud. I still can't believe that ASU doesn't bring anymore than they do. I'd say they had around 1500-2000 people counting the band, but you would think you guys would bring closer to 4000. Anyways....as a Senior at Furman, today's win makes being at the last 3 crushing losses a little less painful.

I'll quit rambling now. Good luck in Boone next week against GSU and for the rest of the season.
