Again....Are you talking to FANS? If so, save it. We do not contribute to the outcome.

If you have evidence that the team feels this way.....Proceed

This same little Appy St team played here in 05 and the score was 24-0, not the blowout everyone thought it would be and we had first round draft picks out the arse on that team.

Don't get me wrong I'm not wanting a close game or even thinking that we won't win big but I just think it's funny that people just assume it's going to be a demolition.

Oh well, It's just Appy St" I don't think there are enough people here giving this team credit for what they have done over the last 4 or 5 years. 3 NC's in a row isn't easy at ANY level and they were ranked in the top 25 of our division last year. I'm just glad the team isn't taking Appy St as lightly as A LOT of the fans. I promise Appy St isn't thinking they aren't going to win and there coming in with some bad shite on there minds.

Don't get me wrong, I'm as confident as the next guy that we are going to win this game and look good doing it but I think we need to give them a little more credit then most are.

Their entire O-line is about 1/3 smaller than our D-line and vice versa. What do you think they are going to do, all of sudden grow bigger and stronger in 2 weeks and completely change their personnel overnight?

Its a message board for fans.

Fans talk trash.

Trash talk makes time before the game fun.

Trash talk has no effect on the teams or the outcome.
