Celebrating CFB150, A Series: Appalachian State
No football team in the Sun Belt Conference has experienced more recent success than No. 20 Appalachian State. The 48 wins over the last four seasons include a perfect 4-0 record in bowl games and a victory in the inaugural conference championship game played last season.
But, the game for which Appalachian State is best known for came in the opening week of the 2007 season. Back then, the Mountaineers played in the Football Championship Subdivision and had won the last two national championships at that level. They began the season with a game at Michigan, which had the No. 5 ranking in the national Associated Press Top 25 poll.
