I know Montana and ASU fans have been looking forward to this playoff matchup for a few years now.

This game will be boring. I'm more excited for Villanova/W&M, even though that might be a bore itself. Montana will just destroy Appy, especially in Missoula. No fun...

It's going to be a great game, no doubt about it. A game away from Chattanooga, I just don't think Edwards and company will be denied. I'm just proud of the team, what a game, I've got no voice left.

Personally, this is a dream matchup for both schools, and a lot on the line at that! Game of the year in FCS, IMO.

I'm sorry sir, but you are insane.

We just took down the team that destroyed most of the vaunted CAA this season. ASU/Griz should be a great game - we travel well, but I doubt well enough to make a dent in Wa-Griz. I think we showed we can win on the road against good teams knocking out Elon and Richmond away. It looks like Armanti is at least 85%, so I like our chances.

This game will be awesome and what a great atmosphere, will probably rival the UMass game...

I wouldn't. It'll be in the 20s or 30s, barely windbreaker weather.

Would have REALLY sucked to not get a chance to face Edwards just once in his career.

Like I said when the bracket came out, game of the decade for me.

I'm too drunk to think rationally right now, but I did mention ticket prices to Missoula to some friends earlier.

Let's see what tomorrow brings. I know my wife will be in China, so maybe you and I could hold hands and sing kumbaya during the flight out!

You gotta admit...
The SMACK factor alone will go on for 12 months after this game
That's the sign of a good game - after the Montana James Madison game the smack only lasted about 3 months which was about 4 month shorter than the smack after the Wofford Montana game
This game has a "SMACK FACTOR" of eleven

....only because Wofford has a small fan base and they're private, therefore more polite......

Montana and Appalachian St. have 11 semi-final appearances, 3 National runner-up finishes and 4 National titles since 2000 between themselves. ESPN would be brain-dead to put the latest CAA upstarts on prime-time over the Griz and Mountaineers. ASU brings three titles to meet UM's 118 wins into Missoula for the true "Clash of FCS Titans". By all rights, this game should've been played in Chattanooga. The winner of this showdown goes on to win the National Title against, well, whomever.........

Not the game I've been waiting for, but it will be a good game nonetheless. The other semi will be good as well. With the rematch of Will & Mary and Nova in Philly again, this game is good in that App and the Griz have not played yet. With all the support on both sites between ASU and UM, that alone should keep both sites going all week.
