The Showdown at Kidd Brewer Stadium

Advertisement
Lol.

Good on them for taking advantage of this game. It's their biggest home game so not surprised they're going all out.

All we gotta do is crush them so that they never want to play us again.
 
According to App State fans, their passing game is suspect. So a team with inferior talent and depth is going to line up and blow us off the ball for 60 minutes?

People keep talking about the Tennessee game, but they scored 13 points.

Unless we put the ball on the ground eleventy billion times, I don't see how they score more than 17-20.

Capacity at Kidd Brewer is now at 52,000.

Tomorrow it will go up another 5-10k

Next thing you know, someone will say that the game will draw near 75k. It was at 30-35k just a week ago?

Word is that it may out-draw Bristol Motor Speedway.

They'll squeeze a fan in every spot they can. Wouldn't be surprised if it hits 55k by kick off

LOL at 55k in a 23k seat HS stadium. How can they sell more tickets than they have or allow more people to attend than the fire codes would permit?

I can see our D and special teams outscoring their O.

0 points against UT for the final 2 and a half quarters and 296 total yards. They got one score on a muffed punt they recovered deep in UT territory.

Their offense and their skill talent is on par with a good South Florida HS team.

Rick needs to put points on them and make them try to play catch up with that bullshyt offense. Spread them out and gash the fck out of them and work your enormous skill advantage, which is something UT doesn't do because Dobbs sucks *** as a passer and their OC is a Schembechler disciple.

Get in one of those grind it out, phone booth, burn the clock type battles with these under-manned lumps, and you'll see something similar to the UT game.

They're also recruiting Siamese Twins to attend so they can get around the capacity issue. They're going all out.

In full disclosure, I went full ****** with my 55k comment. Thought they had much more space than 23k
 
I'm sure our team is more than a little ticked off at the disrespect'n goin' on. Any chance that CMR lays off late in the game is less then nil at this point.

Hope this ******* shows back up saturday afternoon on the boards to explain why his team took an *** whooping
 
App State's performances against P5 since the Michigan upset:

2008: LSU 41-13
2010: Florida 48-10
2011: Virginia Tech 66-13
2013: Georgia 45-6
2014: Michigan 52-14
2015: Clemson 41-10
2016: Tennessee 20-13


So the entire premise of a close battle is built around the Tennessee game, which is likely indicative of very little.

We see ranked teams sleepwalk through those type of games every year. The GOAT '01 team was only beating Troy 14-7 at the half. The next week they put up 49 points @FSU.

App St is a one-dimensional team with inferior talented across the board. Intangibles can only take you so far.

If we take this game with a modicum of seriousness, we'll win comfortably.

17-13 is still a win. App missed a FG and an extra point against Tennessee. App stayed in that game by blowing them off the ball for 60 minutes, so I have no concerns about the same thing not happening this week. Line play comes down to two things: scheme and pure raw dog talent. That raw talent took Tennessee's offensive line (admittedly porous but not unlike Miami's) to task the entire game. The offensive line played well enough for Cox to have around 150 total yards.

Georgia Southern beat Florida in 2013 without completing a pass. GUESS WHAT, you don't need a forward pass to win a game. Just line up and make sure your will and desire is stronger than the person you face, talent goes out the window.
