[ego74]

Lsu Huge!!!!!!

[AssClown]

Doesn't APP State have one or two LSU transfers? They had one last season.

My school (Georgia Southern) whipped App State's ass last year AT App State.

LSU is gonna roll them. Oh and Florida is playing Hawaii.

[Father Max]

LSU will kill them. By at least 30 points.

BTW gatorpatrick, isn't Georgia Southern like 90% black? Are you a negro?

Both Armanti Edwards and their starting RB were out of that game. With a healthy team, App State dominated the playoffs and routed Delaware in the FCS National Championship Game.

Why do you know that?

[Bergs]

Because I went to an FCS school that qualified for playoffs 3 of 4 years, played App State and Delaware, I have a good friend at Delaware (which beat Navy, a bowl team), and I follow college football in general religiously.

I don't think they will win, but nobody ever thought they would beat Michigan either. I also don't think it will be a rout. Its far more interesting for the simple historical implications. Never before has the Divison I-A/BCS defending champion played the Division I-AA/FCS defending champion. Its universally been accepted that parity has increased in college football. Perhaps this will show us exactly how much.

AS will get rolled, and hard

[Farout]

.....whoever thinks Appalachian state will get "rolled" obviously hasn't seen that LSU's not even a top 5 team this next year....

where was michigan ranked? 5th. so really nobody can tell what will happen.

i believe lsu will win just by the simple idea that the AS boys will be under too much pressure for a repeat

No, its not. No, I'm not.

Armanti Edwards played the whole game (I was there). The Running Back was out. Regardless of their offensive situation, we scored 44 on them. And Jayson Foster played like the Walter Payton Award winner that he is (FCS Heisman).
