That's true why Wake won't play you guys. However, it is still tremendously difficult to compete with the FBS divison schools.


Coach Grobe stated after the 2001 game that he was not scheduling App State anymore. His statement to me was "scheduling App would be bold, but when he plays a FCS school, he wants to play his starters no more than a half...you cant do that with App State"

From Jim Grobe's Lips:

"It’s too big a game for us, you know, to be honest with you, David. I’m being as honest as I possibly can. I know one time Coach Moore asked me, you know, he had kinda heard that maybe we thought the game had some bad blood to it, you know, that is was maybe some sinister reason for not wanting to play and I said ‘Coach, honesty, I don’t want to get my butt beat by you, you know. And that’s the honest truth."
