For the past 15 years, anytime App State was mentioned - "oh watch out for them. I remember when they beat Michigan."

Guess for 15 years more that'll be our name instead.

You're welcome Michigan.

Not sure I agree. The Michigan win was more impressive and noteworthy. Our program is not nearly as good, nor as storied, as the Wolverines.

Somebody just called in to Louie's call in show and said: I bet we can get the App State coaching staff for about half what we're paying ours.

No, Michigan was ranked #5 and was a legitimate Top 10 team when the Mountaineers defeated them.

We were just an overrated #6 team who will now be a footnote in the 2022 season history books.

App St will be the answer to "who was the only team to beat Texas A&M en route to a college football national championship in 2022?"

Michigan's loss was worse due to these facts that:

In 2007:

  • Michigan entered the preseason as ranked #5 in Division I-FBS and a favorite to go to the BCS Division I-FBS national title (Note: App State was a replacement for Hawaii who was ranked #23 in Division FBS). After their loss to App State, the best outcome was the 2008 Rose Bowl via winning the B1G title.
  • App State entered the preseason as ranked #1 in Division I-FCS as the two-time defending Division I-FCS national champs and a favorite to defend the Division I-FCS national title again. After their win to Michigan, they went on to become the three-time Division I-FCS national champs.
In 2022:

  • TAMU entered this game as ranked #6 in Division I-FBS and a favorite to go to the CFP Division I-FBS playoff. After our loss to App State, the best outcome we have at this point is the Sugar Bowl via winning the SEC title.
  • App State entered this game as unranked in Division I-FBS and a favorite to win the Sun Belt title. If they win the Sun Belt title with no more losses they can possibly secure an auto-bid to the Cotton Bowl if they are the highest-ranked G5 conference champ.
