Not trying to be an APP fan that takes over the board or anything but i am doing a speech tomorrow in my class on why ASU is the best football team in the state of NC. I have some pretty good arguments right now and am wondering if anybody can help me think of some more stuff. Put down what ever you think of... I can use anything. Thanks in advance

Because it's not like App hoops is getting a lot of attention?

they are the only ones winning national titles in football?

Combined the 5 FBS schools in NC over the last three years are basically a joke? with the exception of that flukey Wake thing a few years ago.

Walk in the room and tape a picture of Lloyd Carr to the board. Then, with a black marker, write 28<31 on the board, and sit down. This should provide all of the analysis to prove your argument... xlolx

You are right

I know around the country they may not understand, but if you are a believer,which I am, Coach Moore and the teams faith in what can happen if you believe is a cornerstone to the team.

I don't know if this helps, but I've always been a big fan of daisy chains:

In 2007:

Appalachian State defeated Western Carolina, Elon, Gardner-Webb, and Lenior-Rhyne

Appalachian State > Michigan > Florida > Florida State > Boston College > Wake Forest > NC State > North Carolina > Duke

Does that help?

Couldn't this be classified as cheating? You are looking over the shoulders of your fellow AGSers. Better hope the professor is not reading the board. xthumbsupx

No, but the perils of Internet Crawlers means that in 2 days time, he can search for some keywords in google and this thread will be in the results. Just gotta be careful

It'd be better if you speech was about App State being the best team in North Carolina in 2007.

The 2008 team won't have Jackson or Lynch. Makes it a tougher argument.

But in 2007 App State was the only North Carolina football program that beat a team that finished in the AP and or the Coaches Poll FBS top 25.

Also, App State finished 2007 as the highest rated North Carolina football team by Sagarin. That in itself doesn't make the case, but it's part of it.

Wake Forest was 29th, Appalachian State was 34th in the AP Poll, but that's considering it's an FBS poll where most voters probably would refuse to ever rank an FCS team.

UNC, NC State, and Duke are nowhere to be found in the polls.

Very true about many voters probably refusing to vote for a FCS team. It surprised me that UNI also received votes at some point because of that.
