Country singer Luke Combs, who attended App State, will serve as the guest picker. 

Quote

The show decided to go to Boone because App State is the story of the week in college football,” "GameDay" producer Drew Gallagher said. “Of all the games and possible sites for the show on Saturday, App State’s current relevance as a giant killer combined with a passionate, college football-crazed fan base made the decision a no-brainer.

One day I will move back to the Boone area and live off the side of a mountain.  My time in Boone was the most favorite, fun times of my life.  fuging love that place. 

Was born there, spent a big part of my life there, just a really tough place to make a living.

Would love to go to Boone for this..I am 45 min away...but will be a traffic nightmare.  I can only imagine what it was like for the UNC game.  The roads in that area not designed for this stuff.

Check out goggle maps, it shows the traffic and a life saver for time.

This is awesome for Boone but you couldn't drag me to Boone tomorrow with an 18 wheeler and a logging chain. I'll be waist deep in either the South Toe or Wilson Creek, haven't decided on which.

Yeah it would be great if I still lived in that area but there's no chance in hell I'm going up there and trying to arrange lodging and everything else and I sure as fug wouldn't go up and try and leave the same day. Talk about nightmare traffic

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
