I can see it now, the "new MAC" adds Montana, Georgia Southern and Appy State and becomes the Big 16. Wow, I can hardly wait!

Most people know of Appy State from their win over Michigan, but for me they'll always be famous for two things-

1. Their articulate students- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj3iNxZ8Dww

and

2. The greatest recruiting video of all time- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVENWl8uBeg

MY STATE. MY TEAM.

They'd instantly be a contender for the MAC crown every year.

Can somebody hit a pull up jumper for me?.....

Haha....that just reminds me of the Mike Polk "Hastily Made Cleveland Tourism Video"

In all seriousness though, they would be one of the top teams in the MAC within a few years, if not immediately. They have some pretty impressive facilities including (drum-roll please) an indoor practice facility. They also recently updated their stadium to include luxury boxes. They averaged nearly 25,000 in attendance last year which I believe would put them at second in the conference. Would be a good add in football but I don't know about other sports.

We better get them while they're HOT! HOT! HOT!
