My wife asked if Appy State fans could spell their own college.

Guess that's the solace I'll take in the beatdown.

You win a bowl game. Congrats.

The Sun Belt Conference Co-Champion just handed the MAC Conference champion its collective asses. Makes me question how strong the MAC actually is.

The MAC collectively hasn't been strong since 2003! COGS

Nice win by "APP" St since some posters are sensitive. I always cheer for your program ...you guys seem to do it the right way.

I’m almost as surprised by ASU fans’ lack of winner class in this thread as I am the score. Thought you all were better than this.

(Fwiw, I still like ASU for their win in Ann Arbor)

Very nice game APP, don't know what happened to you guys in Amherst. But assumed you'd be ready for some retribution next year when we visit you all.

Rockets WTF! 34=0 so far.

RE: ****!****TOLEDO vs. apps DGB GAME THREAD****!****
I have total and complete respect for Toledo, the program you all have built, and the fans that continue to show your program support year after year. Y'all showed out this year and I don't think anybody expected this outcome. I know I expected more and I know that you all expected more, but we can never truly predict a bowl game, as each team will always have its motives that we have no clue about. I expect y'all to be competitive (once again) next year and am positive that your team will continue to make y'all proud. Y'all can consider me a fan of your program now and I will root for you whenever you aren't playing App!

Just as a heads up: y'all might want to put a leash on whoever runs the Barstool Toledo Twitter account. Most of your program's fans have shown true class, but whoever is running that account hasn't been graceful or classy in the slightest.

The more these years go on, the more I think our northern MAC teams adopt a “just happy to be there” mentality in bowl games. Not just UT and not just this year, not picking on them. Those southern schools shake off the sun and fun and come to play.

Appalachian State is better than Toledo? Yes.

But when I see a 5 TD margin along with a goose egg for UT, something else is going on too. Frustrating for MAC fans - and certainly those traveling across the country - wanting to watch a game where all players are at full intensity.

We are collectively a pretty bad conference, sure, but something happens in late December where we really look Pop Warner.

Yep, even more appreciative of Ohio now. Probably our only win of the bowl season.

As a MAC fan, that was a disgrace. MAC teams have had coaches poached before right at bowl time, and that's a fair excuse if excuses are your thing, but this coach just signed the richest deal in league history. And the team looked nervous, frightened and slow. And to come here on and have a Rocket fan give the excuse that they just weren't interested, man that don't cut it, so I don't blame ASU fans for responding to that with a bit of deserved vitriol. You play to not get shut out, if nothing else. Anyway, congrats Mountaineers. The vast majority of UT fans would just say you simply kicked their behind.

Still need a QB though. Our backup QB’s didn’t get a lot of playing time this season.

I can remember when APP came into the Sun Belt and many people talked about how bad the Sun Belt was compared to conferences like the MAC, this game shows that not only is there little to no separation but that an 8 win Sun Belt team can dominate the MAC conference champ 11 win team, wow screw the experts right?

Thank you for understanding why we mobbed this thread. “Good game” would have been better for the offending rocket fan... especially with all the bulletin board material in the media about Toledo deserving better than App leading up to this game.

“Many people” talked about how much better the MAC is than Sun Belt? Not sure how much I’m buying that. Maybe you’re confusing us with the CUSA folks who are bigger rivals within your geography. It happens, but I don’t often see MAC fans puffing their chests out over any conference. Even the higher end FCS ones.

Bowl games are bragging rights but anyone can win one game. Ohio beat us 58-50 and a month later we beat you'll 30-27.

That said, you've earned the bragging, especially with a shut out. To be fair the MAC goes in cycles, they get very good and then their coaches are snapped up and the cycle starts all over again.
