That makes for a decent team, but not a national champion.
BTW is App State head and shoulders above the rest of the others in the Champions division?
Anyway as a bit of a OSU fan that was fun to see.

I don't remember talking about Boise...and they are division I anyway.
No, Appalachian State is not head and shoulders above the rest. There are probably half a dozen programs right there in any given year. These teams rarely get the opportunity to play the big dogs and this is exactly why. There is little to gain for Michigan by beating ASU...but they lost a bunch.
It's nice to see it happen. There are plenty of I-AA players in the NFL right now.
