Yet more people showed up to see us play D2's than have to see you guys so far this year. I'm pretty sure that game against Duke this week will also help increase the excitement as well moving forward.

How about UTSA, FAU, FIU etc than Xavier, Temple, Richmond etc? I mean I can pick the bottom games and games of interest from each conference too. The A10 had what 4 or 5 NCAA bids last year? I'd say their would be more in the A10 if you want to compare.
My point was you might want to hold off and see how your fans respond to supporting the program with this new conference schedule before you talk trash because as much as you pooped on the A10 at times they did put some ranked teams and such in your arena to sell fans on.

Notice I said beat. If it takes losing to a team to build excitement for your program then you are lost. Just another L in the books if you ask me. Now if you could have won then you could say something.

There wasn't any "chest-thumping" before you posted about vomiting at the thought of playing us (which is ironic as a first year program who's been playing D3 schools).
However, we will defend ourselves when insulted.
You have one fan saying App would help sell out any CUSA East stadium, another ragging MT fans for attendance, and another already saying you are going to put a hurting on USM. No chest thumping or insulting at all.
Hahahaha....that's some funny sh!t right there. Last time they came to Huntington they "might" have brought 150 fans tops.

Loser has to re-nickname their stadium. There can be only one rock.

Good one, good to see captain obvious has arrived. Were you mad the Tarheel's basketball lost the other night? App football struggled this year and now Tarheel basketball, its going to be a rough sports year for you guys.
App state is having a rough patch, that is correct. Don't be a silly safety school and say we're a quidditch school though.

No re-nicknaming anything IMO. The real "Rock" was built in 1932 in Hattiesburg Mississippi.

76 is going to be really pissed when App announces a home and home with Marshall in the next five years.
