As mediocre as it was, they covered the spread and we didnât. With that said, their defense bent a lot and ETSU should have scored at least twice more. We need to slow the pace, let our guys up front win the time of possession battle, and frustrate them. If we can go +2 in turnovers, this one gets real interesting.
clt says apparently you cannot use your cell phone in appy town due to no cell coverage.
you would think a school that generates the most boost mobile employees in USA would have decent service.
Donât bother streaming any games at the tailgate next week. We are basically going to a third world country.

I will be at the game and hope we play with our full potential. If we have zero mistakes I think we can hang around awhile. I expect App to eventually get things rolling and win.
Anybody familiar with game day parking at App State? We have some ladies that cannot walk very far. Looking at parking maps, could we park in the County Social Services parking lot at Poplar Grove Connector Rd. and catch the shuttle to the stadium?
I donât have any illusions that we have even a remote chance to beat Appy on their home turf.
BUTâŚ
If we didâŚI would so enjoy 2 things:
- The utter meltdown the Appyâs would have. Would LOVE to hear the excuses and see the extreme disappointment and disbelief materialize and boil over on their board. They are so in need of some humble pie and would love nothing more than for us to serve it to them piping hot.
- What it would do for our young program in recruiting, perception, excitement and momentum towards the next round of conference expansion.
It would be the greatest time to be a Niner since Rodney White & company was destroying the Memphisâ, Louisvilleâs and Cincyâs of the world.
AlasâŚjust donât think we have the horsesâŚespecially in depth.
Hope we compete and keep it somewhat respectable.
ButâŚto dream. It would be oh so epic to pull it out and witness a Healy celebration on Appyâs home turf.
i think at the top, our best guys are better than their best guys. highsmith, lemay, deluca, tucker are studs but i dont think we have the depth yet to win this game.

If you arenât a season ticket holder at app, you are pretty much screwed. Their parking situation is terrible. Iâm sorry, not trying to make things worse, but just being honest. Every appy I have spoken to this week has the parking method of âshow up and prayâ unless you are a season ticket holder. Applcart is great, but it doesnât drop that close to the stadium. If I was you I would definitely find a lot near an applcart stop though, because that will be much better for your group than walking.

Thanks Clayton!
Yeah, Claytonâs right. Parking is crap around app. I researched parking and came to the same conclusion. Weâre staying about 100 yards from an Applcart stop that takes us to a stop about 100 yards from the stadium. Hereâs the routes and schedules list. https://www.appalcart.com/bus-routes.

Their parking situation is crap but there are a couple gravel lots off Depot Street that are solid options, 10-15 minute walk.
How early do you have to get there?
App State odds opens at -21
not a betting man but i think there will be a surprise.

No go. Not tailgating. Gonna ride the Applcart.

At least âŚ3 sections full purchased through our office

Make sure to wear green, with the white out it will be very easy to pick us out on TV if weâre all head to toe in Green (although Iâm sure the App social media propagandists will claim itâs a shade of black 
)
