Appalachian State vs Montana

I want to see the top 2 teams in the CS duke it out on the field. I think it would be an awesome game.

[HaveFunKc]

I want to see a first in the palyoffs: the seeds winning out as picked.... That would be neat!

Not to mention - App National Champs Back-to-Back!

Hope it falls just short of that happening :smiley_wi

By 9:00 pm tomorrow Montana will have played all 3 of the other finalists in semifinal games. They will have lost to only one of them and they will need to avenge this loss. Griz/Penguins all the way.

[sdgriz24]

I want to see tha Griz vs. the guins.

[lizrdgizrd]

You know what they say, hope in one hand, crap in the other and see which one fills up first. :cool:

We will see the top 2 teams! No matter which two teams make it to the final, in our subdivision that is what defines the top two teams, no better way than a playoff!

You and I will disagree about Saturday's game, but we agree that the CS is superior for having a playoff, we don't settle things on a computer or on a ballot, we settle it on the field!!:hurray: :hurray: :nod:

Go App!

I want the Griz vs YSU for 3 reasons.

They have knocked us out the playoffs twice.

So Josh Swogger can play against some of his old friends & teammates.

I picked this matchup in Kardplayers FCS bracket pool.

[penguin8797]

I want YSU/Montana too, for the Swogger connection, and because YSU has no history or connection with UMASS. Montana seems the more interesting match for YSU, and most importantly I bet their fans are party animals like us!

Gotta get there first though

I want to see a first in the playoffs: the seeds winning out as picked...The last time the top 4 seeds made the semis the top two seeds met in the champ game... 1996.

[HaveFunKc]

Hope can be a good thing... But then reality sets in. :)

[HaveFunKc]

Oops... I thought #2 (Montana) won the NC that year over #1 Marshall?

[crunifan]

I want Youngstown and UMass.

[Grizalltheway]

Exactly. As in "we had hoped to get by YSU but, like our fans, we just got too darn cocky and overlooked them. Oh well, there's always next year"

[FlyYtown]

ytown-montana all the way.
Josh Swogger wants it too...he said so on Tuesday lol!

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

App - Montana. The two best teams in the CS this year.

[appman87]

ASU vs Montana in the final. Could be a great game in the making.

[lizrdgizrd]

There, I fixed that little error for you. :D

[LacesOut]

UMass vs. YSU is what I want to see.

[89Hen]

By 9:00 pm tomorrow Montana will have played all 3 of the other finalists in semifinal games. They will have lost to only one of them
:eyebrow: A little premature to making that statement, no?

[Walkon79]

Clearly a 1 vs 2 is what I want to see, with the Griz avenging our loss.

[Mountaineer#96]

ytown-montana all the way.
Josh Swogger wants it too...he said so on Tuesday lol!

He's just scared of the Mountaineer front 4 :nod:

[UMass922]

I want to see my team take on the defending champs.

Of course, if they play YSU instead, I could deal.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Griz vs YSU

I was there in `99 when Heppner slipped and fell on his ass during a FG to give YSU a free pass to the second round.

UMASS YSU redemption for the A-10

Thanks Ralph! :)

who deserves to go? asu/umass....who do i want to see? asu/montana because montana is more famous and would bring more excitement to the game and in many's eyes would be a bigger win for app if we did win and plus im slightly less afraid of montana

[DuckDuckGriz]

So if Montana and/or YSU win why don't they "deserve to go" ? :confused:

That was some free pass. I hope YSU gets the chance to do it again with the same result. I remember that '99 game, it was a great game to watch on TV, almost like a NC game. When did they replace the grass with the synthetic field turf?

The east coast bias of app state fans on this site is disgusting. Come Dec. 15th, you will find out how football was meant to be played.

So, do we play it how it's not meant to be played? Please, enlighten us.

I think my fellow ASU fan had a poor choice of words, BTW. Obviously, the teams that win this weekend are the ones that deserve to be there. To think otherwise would be foolish.

I voted ASU/Monty...because I think it would be the best atmosphere, and likely lead to a sell out. Plus, it would mean I would be there! :)

On top of that, my company will be assisting in the travel arrangements for the Griz if they go...and I want my owners to be happy at our Christmas party on Saturday!

[KAUMASS]

UMass vrs Appalachian-UMass shows why they have the #1 power rank in FCS.

[BuckeyeGrizzlyFan]

Grizzlies vs. Penguins

[ErkPeterson]

I don't care as long as its not App st. xlolx

[Grlz]

Appalachian State vs. Montana

1 vs 2.

[ncguitarplyr]

yeah definitly the teams that win deserve to go...i was using the word "deserve" as in best team...and as we all know even with a playoff system (far better than a bcs system) still sometimes the best teams don't get to the championship....but anyone who gets there deserves to which may or may not be the case with bcs

i personally think umass and app are the 2 best teams...both CAN be beaten by montana and youngstown state though...just like i don't think anyone would say the tennessee titans are better than the indianapolis colts but the colts got beaten by the titans
