The first App was the game where Hud “jumped the shark”. They came in here and handed it to us. The inability to close the deal (outright title) isn’t the main thing that turns people off UL football, but it is a bitter pill for some. It’s more like Lucy pulling the football out on Charlie Brown.
So yeah, this game isn’t for a championship, but it sure is a meaningful step with a win.
38-34. Cajuns pull it out.
35-27 Cajuns

I'm no expert, but I truly believe this defense is the best we have seen and are getting better each week. In my opinion what everyone is missing is we will control the clock with our run game therefore keeping App's offense off the field. Hard to score if you don't have ball. Now we can't turn the ball over giving them a short field. Also we need to score touchdowns not field goals.
Just my non-professional opinion.

Do huh?
This year's App. State's offense may be the best we've ever had. Short field, long field, no matter. Our field goal kicker has had few chances. It has been a problem sometimes that we score too quickly. Quick strikes means the D is on the field longer, which runs up the D's stats. In all 4 wins, App. State never won the time of possession stat. Whatever problems App. might have Wed. night, it won't be on offense. And, as I said earlier, I think App's D will surprise you. Cannot wait to see your O-line. You all got lots of love from ESPN for your big-uglies.
Man, I doubt I will get much done at work tomorrow. Cannot WAIT to get down there!!
AppAlum, I was told by your fanbase last year that last year's squad was the best it ever had. I disagreed with that opinion. I'm befuddled that so many educated football fans think your current QB is Tim Tebow reincarnated. I think he is an average thrower of the football, does not read the field very well and can't "out athlete" most LBs in our league. What I do see is that he can manage an offense and run right over defenders. App's scheme has beaten a lot of people (I'm assuming you guys are still zone blocking on the OL) over the years in this league, exploiting defensive laziness and hitting homeruns with play makers and disciplined decision makers in the backfield.
