good post sir.

Wait, what?

You lost to us two weeks ago. And then South Alabama. That math isn't adding up.

Wait, what?

Your reading comprehension skills aren't adding up. What you're saying has nothing to do with the post you quoted.

Man go away. You look so petty.

Wait, a GSU fan calling other fans petty? That's hilarious.

So ULL lays an egg against Ga State, L. Tech, and now App state but they are to be considered a marquee win? Oh they did win the auto conference championship title with a win against Ark State. Wait, Ark state just took up the orifices by the Apps states.

I think you have to include Liberty in this discussion. My vote goes to them.

I'f we're including outside competition i'll put my vote for Navy on the 52-19 win.

And you'd probably be right since their star QB returned from injury.

App was definitely the better team today than Ga southern...

GS's signature win was over a team most posters were voting 6th in the power rankings before they beat stAte on Thur.

no brainer..
APP should be rated higher than GS right now.

If App is so good then GS's signature win was over App. GS beat App by 3 TD's and is undefeated in the league. Case closed.

FIFY

"from an unbiased observer." my TXST loyalty has nothing to do with it.

I and any other TXST fan would admit that we have been wildly inconsistent this year... so subtle jabs at our program aren't going to hurt my feelings. Moreover, I wasn't aware that I had to root for a top 25 team before I can share my opinions on football.

I don't believe GS has proven itself. I believe app has... get over it.

I vote for Navy too. They have more SBC wins than some teams in this conference.

I'm calling for a rematch!

Means nothing, Ole Miss beat #1 Alabama and are losing to a terrible Arkansas team.. Its not how teams begin the year but end them. Not saying they are better, but they have improved since the beginning of the year.

Why is this thread even a thing?

Yes, people tried to ignore the fact that ULL needed a last minute TD drive to beat Ga St. We saw today people are giving them the benefit of the doubt based on previous seasons.

Probably because all other arguing threads got closed?

I'm going to play the App fan game now:

"Glad everybody can see what we have had to deal with for years. You beat a team by three touchdowns and somehow that means you didn't really beat them. Is delusional the right word here?"

this is true.

I, as a fan, have absolutely loved being in the Sun Belt this year. Every away game I've gone to has been nothing but a blast and I couldn't be happier with the warm welcome the Apps received this year.

I just wish we had a way to determine this on the gridiron.... oh wait.

Full season - GS
Power Ranking - App

I'd rather have had the season GS had, but I wouldn't trade for the next couple of years. App loses four players that get minutes, GS loses 4 Oline starters and quite a bit on their two deep.

I'm going to give you my opinion anyways. Right now you guys are probably the best team in the league.

Of course, we had the better season. See you next year.

This ^

This is the truth right now, in a power poll App State is #1....that doesn't mean they are in the standings. Yes I wish we got Ga Southern later in the year like usual, we likely beat them. However, we get them when we did and they beat us. Nothing can change how bad our year started nor can anything change how good it eventually turned out. No team in the SBC wants to play this App team RIGHT NOW, earlier in the year everyone wanted a piece.

Playing a lot of youth is paying off late this season and you will be full force next year.
