Also don't get the App hate but I'm not old enough to have experienced when this was a "rivalry". App is a fun place to attend football games, the people are fun to be around, they throw good tailgates, and play good football. I'd much rather them be the second best team in NC behind us (to echo TF) rather than Duke, UNC, or NCSU.
I don't know if the ranking is overzealous for them. They have a lot of returning talent but with a new coach (that was an underwhelming hire imo) they could suffer. Especially if they switch their defense from a 3-4 to a 4-3.
When we played App every year in Our stadium, App fans were the absolute worst. Worse than VT fans. NC State bad. We should have never re scheduled App. A win against them will never improve our resume and anytime they beat us just improves their standing and helps them in NC recruiting. The rest of you u will see this suckage when they pack our place. Nice payday for us, but otherwise no benefit.
