RE: GAMEDAY THREAD: App State at Tennessee 7:30pm et SEC Network
Moral Victories are tough
Having said that I couldn't be more proud of the players out on the field tonight. That forced fumble in overtime at the goal line showed incredible determination even though the results went the other way. We can point fingers all we want, but that doesn't change anything. We just played the #9 team in the country to overtime and had a solid shot to win late in the 4th quarter. These guys will learn from their mistakes and move on to ODU.
I'm sure App State gained respect from everyone in the country after tonight.

And you would only want App to lose to make sure Seminole continues to come back up your disdain for anything related to App State being successful. What you fail to discuss is that the top teams, or any teams, in the belt doing well (winning) out of conference games bodes well for every member.
I also remember your score prediction, which is more likely what you were "hoping" for, however I won't post it here.

Moral victory? pfft. App got beat on a crazy play that will be part of the lore of every Mountaineer fan. There is no comfort in out-coaching your opponent, exposing their weakness and losing on a big play pass that was well defended followed by a what the heck was that scoring play in OT. Only those of us without skin in the game can walk away thinking good game instead of I'm gonna be sick.
App had a great game plan and Tennessee better figure out how to fix the things App exposed or they will have a rough year.

Before this gets started, lets be clear. There were a bunch of AState fans rooting for Tennessee tonight. For us, this was a catch-22. There's not a ton of love lost when it comes to App in Jonesboro, but we also hate the SEC with a passion. Many took the opportunity to root for App State, believing what's good for the Sun Belt is good for Arkansas State. At the same time, there are groups of fans who are very concerned that we might share a league title with App, and want to be nationally recognized as the Sun Belt's best team. App beating Tennessee would hurt our chances there.
What you saw was a decent number who settled on a hard fought close loss, giving App a defeat, but at the same time giving the proper respect for the league.
There's nothing wrong with that, and let me be clear, no one is trolling by mentioning this. Wolf Bird honestly was cheering for a close App loss tonight, and was honestly worried that Tennessee might run you over. We're happy that didn't happen, and offer mad props to you for staying with them.

A win is better for the Sun Belt Conference and it's members. To post on this board that you're hoping for an OOC loss for a conference mate is perplexing to someone that truly loves their alma mater. I suspect Wolfbird doesn't have one.

Still unreasonable. Pull for a close loss due to an end of season scenario that isn't certain to occur, especially considering the way you played when App came to Jonesboro, except this time you get Southern. Make no mistake, I will be pulling for an Arkansas State blowout loss tomorrow. It just makes App's loss look better, and the Belt received enough credit for the way tonight's game was played.
No hard feelings?

Lamb could've gained a first down in overtime, he could've clocked it on third down instead of lining up to run a play etc. It isn't all clock management by the coaches as they called the game to keep it close and put App in a position to win at the end.
