App State Schedules Savannah State 2017, Elon 2021
http://www.fbschedules.com/2016/10/appal...elon-2021/
Akron pushed back App State's home game against them from next year to 2022. App replaced them with Savannah State. Meh. You get who you can get in that situation.
As for the Elon game, I'm probably one of the very few App State fans who's glad to see them come back to Boone in five years. I married a lovely lady from Elon, so I never harbored the disdain for the Phoenix that most Mountaineer fans did for them (even though they did sometimes play pretty dirty). Besides, if we're going to play FCS teams, we might as well play former SoCon & in-state opponents.

Dad went to Elon and ended up an App fan. Hope to make it up the mountain even though almost everyone at Elon from the SoCon days are gone; unless Riddle comes back as a coach.

I'm happy to host any of our old conference mates in Boone for one of our "tune-up" games. Would love to see Western more often honestly. Nothing wrong with remembering where you came from. And quite frankly, there is some good football in the SOCON/CAA conferences. FCS or not.

Still marks a boring side to our scheduling I've started to not be used to, do occasionally need to play an FCS I guess, Elon will be nice, Savannah State is a joke.

Plenty of programs much more important than us have played Savannah State. C'mon dude, we aren't nearly as hot of **** as you pretend we are.

I'm just saying that Savannah State is a joke because they are and thats honest truth. We blew them out when were FCS nonetheless now.

If its between half of the G5 and Wake Forest Ill take a pick of half of the G5. Elon is trying to schedule Wake Forest for homecoming.

Maybe so, but Wake Forest is a huge draw for our fans. This used to be an annual game.

I get it but they are P5 in name only. Smart move as they will sell out a home game as well with your fans on the return trip. GT is just not bad enough yet to come to Statesboro, they still have decent attendance.

To be fair, Wake is 5-2 right now and will almost certainly be bowling this year. Hell, they've been to the Orange Bowl in the last ten years.

Possible they have Army, Boston College and UVA....horrid schedule this year.
Their history is awful. I though they might be one of those team that were good back in the day but...why do they even football? Only one double digit winning season ever and only two seasons better than 9 wins since 1888.....how is that even possible?
