The WrApp-Up: The Citadel

47-21.  That’s more like it.  A thrashing of a SoCon opponent and Armanti racking up yardage.  Don’t let the name of the opponent and its history against us fool you.  The Citadel is an improved team (don’t forget that they were ranked No. 12 in the nation coming into Saturday’s game).  With several new pieces [...]

540 yards of offense – that’s the [...]

The WrApp-Up: LSU

Ouch. That one hurt. Saturday’s game really showed the difference between FBS and FCS. I think the real difference was the strength and speed of LSU – we just couldn’t match them. It’s a tough one to take as I thought we would do a bit better but we’ll just move [...]

The WrApp-Up: Last season

Once we get into the 2008 campaign, the weekly WrApp-Up will look at the previous Appalachian game.  And since the last App game was the national championship game in Delaware, we’ll take a trip back to review that wonderful night in Chattanooga.

Even though I was in the stands for that game, [...]
