"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.

i am not worried about app st because i know our team will be prepaired.

what gets to me is the people that really think it is going to be a close game.

I hear people say this and it kinda gets me.

It doesn't matter what the people on this message board think about Appy St and what they can do.

Rest assured Les and the boys aren't overlooking this team. That's who counts come next Saturday. Not SFP and his 673,000 posts or TheFranchise or anybody else.

They lost to Wofford and Georgia Southern last year. How do you explain that? Congrats to them for pulling off a huge upset, but let's not get crazy thinking they can play with the big boys.

It won't be the typical 50+ point Div 1-AA blowout, but it'll be a comfortable win. Something like 42-14.

They weren't ranked, they were in the "Also receiving votes" category. However, that was going into week 3 (two weeks after scUM), because the AP didn't allow people to vote for them until then. So who knows if they would've been ranked in week 2, right after they beat Michigan.

They're AA, and lost a game to an AA team last year. They're a good AA team no doubt, but the win against Mich last year was a fluke. If LSU doesn't win this game by four touchdowns I think it says more about LSU's team than Appy St.

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.
