We all know the answer and you saw it when you did your research, that's enough for me.

If you think it is winning argument don't be lazy and shiftless and look it up.

None of which goes to the winning argument which is App has loaded up on G5 patsies and wins, AState has played stronger teams and mostly lost so the non-conference comparison is apples to oranges.

But if you think you have a winning argument, you aren't entitled to research welfare here.

You really have played stronger teams and lost! You played the second strongest team in Arkansas, UCA! Tough opponent right there, but you almost pulled it out. Maybe next time? (If you aren't too busy losing to Toledo)

They'll quiet down after losing to UMass this weekend.

Want to place a pizza bet on it? App wins, you order a pizza to my house. Umass wins, I will order a pizza to your house.

Put up or shut up.

To make that fair you'd prolly need to put up 50 pizza's to his 1. Also, this has NOTHING to do with the thread title. There is nothing wrong with fans adamantly supporting their team and even trash talking a bit, but don't be lazy...start a thread about it. I read all this crap while looking to find out more about the Convo re-naming. You guys are confusing !!! lol

Line is -3.5 for app, not -35

Hmm I wonder why the rankings have so much disparity between App and Umass? Could it be that rankings are subjective and not really indicative of who is better?

The only thing that matters to me is head to head, which isn’t happening so why bring it up this year? Are you making the argument that 2015 App was better than 2015 stAte?

I guess we could make the argument for sample size error because I would certainly argue we stomp lil fcs app 2014 8 out of 10 times.

I don't think anyone here actually thinks you'd lose to UMass.

It was a joke. Calm down grasshopper. I think App will win, but I was surprised to see that you guys are only favored by 3.5.

0-11 on third down, 240 less yards, 18 minutes TOP, that 2014?

Somehow we only lost that game by 5.

Prevent defense the last 7-8 minutes and a fumble inside the ten by us made the final score look close.

What made it look close was that it ended up being a 5 pt game.

Cool story, you guys are funny, did you actually watch the game or attend it, domination until the final few minutes.

App beat NMSU by 14 three weeks ago and that was a much closer game, scores are funny like that when you're objective.

To be fair to Saint. App tried to sit on a lead for the last 8 minutes of that one. They let us recover an onside kick in there, and played prevent.

Honestly it could have been a win for us. If I remember that game right we had an open man late that would have given us the ball inside the 15 yard line or better down 5 and the pass was dropped.

That was bizzaro year. App put up a bunch of stinkers in OOC play and lost to Liberty while we beat a Utah State team OOC that finished with 10 wins. Then App turned it on and ran through league while we struggled to deal with scholarship issues.

After the Liberty loss Satt pulled 6-7 redshirts and that made all the difference in the back half of 2014. He originally wanted to redshirt the entire class, but pressure was building.
