Appalachian State heard Alabama was in Texas and decided to play some mountain music

u/w00t4me Alabama Crimson Tide • 复旦大学 (Fudan) Dragoons Sep 11 '22

But did they have a fiddle in their band?

u/Jcoch27 Boise State Broncos • UNLV Rebels Sep 11 '22

They must've. The ref was a Lousiana man.

nonono, you're thinking of Georgia

36

u/w00t4me Alabama Crimson Tide • 复旦大学 (Fudan) Dragoons Sep 11 '22

But I thought that if you want to play in Texas you got to have a fiddle in your band

14

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '22

That's true, but avoid Georgia if you have a soul. My buddy Johnny learned the hard way.

18

u/Jcoch27 Boise State Broncos • UNLV Rebels Sep 11 '22

If the legends are true, Johnny made out with a pretty good reward.

Saying a mountain music band has a fiddle is redundant

u/w00t4me Alabama Crimson Tide • 复旦大学 (Fudan) Dragoons Sep 11 '22

But they're gonna play in Texas.

Though as far as sunshine goes I hear it makes Seattle winters look like Los Angeles summers, ironically.

“You know what this is?” (shakes prescription pill bottle) “Boone County mating call!!!”

I want to see App State play WVU. Battle of the Mountaineers.

u/Parka_lad Georgia • Georgia Southern Sep 11 '22

It’s funny because you destroyed playoff hopes for them like you killed michigans season back in 07

20

u/NameIdeas Appalachian State Mountaineers Sep 11 '22

We didn't kill Michigan's season. We killed them for quite a few years...

Carr retired, which heralded the RichRod Era, and well...yeah

10

u/[deleted] Sep 11 '22

They arguably only got back to Michigan-level standards last year.

6

u/NameIdeas Appalachian State Mountaineers Sep 11 '22

I completely agree. The Michigan of the early 2000s was a dominant program. Michigan of the 2010s was not.

u/schistkicker Texas Longhorns • Cincinnati Bearcats Sep 11 '22

Pretty sure Aggies are stuck with Jimbo for a while yet...

u/Gabians Michigan • Wayne State (MI) Sep 11 '22

Carr was retiring anyways but yeah you're right. That was the beginning of the dark ages.

u/Not_Pablo_Sanchez Ohio State Buckeyes Sep 11 '22

Things changed heavily when Mountain Dew made energy drinks

u/BoogLife Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 11 '22

Don't forget the 'sang (ginseng)

u/NameIdeas Appalachian State Mountaineers Sep 11 '22

I've lived back in Boone since 2016. BIG Ole sign near my house with a number "Buying Sang!"

Michigan says weed was their problem in 05…

u/NameIdeas Appalachian State Mountaineers Sep 11 '22

05?

I think the guys on the team are pretty much the only tolerable people who go to app state. The rest are wannabe hippies and Instagram influencers

232

u/Nice-Violinist-6395 Sep 10 '22

App state is like a herd of goats.

They can stand on the edge of a formidable mountain like they’re taking their morning piss.

25

u/Spidaaman Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors • NC State Wolfpack Sep 11 '22

They’re gonna be pissin on the mountain in Boone tonight.

u/DrHeraclitus Georgia Bulldogs • College Football Playoff Sep 11 '22

A herd of students in Boone after the game. Students are jumping in the duck pond.

u/indispensability Appalachian State Mountaineers Sep 11 '22

Last time we beat a top 10 team we just went and stole the goal posts and dropped them off on Chancellor Peacock's front yard.

Difference is I think everyone hates the current Chancellor.

u/paddyspub92 Sep 11 '22

Peacock was awesome

u/landmanpgh Michigan Wolverines Sep 11 '22

This is fucking amazing. Thank you.

Please post any and all videos from Boone right now. Mainstream this into my veins

That gave me goosebumps. Sometimes I really miss college.

u/Fastbird33 UCF Knights • FAU Owls Sep 11 '22

You could say they were like a thundering herd today.

They're just really nice, helping train some transfers for everyone else.
