Georgetown to Play Appalachian State on Dec. 12 at Verizon

The WATAUGA DEMOCRAT is reporting that the vaunted Appalachian State Mountaineers will stop by the Verizon Center for a Sunday soiree on December 12th.

For those that don't remember, Appalachian State is famous for beating the Michigan Wolverines football team on a blocked field goal in 2007. The Mountaineers are coached by 30 year old Jason Capel, a former North Carolina forward and brother of Jeff Capel, a former Dukie who is now coach of Oklahoma.

Other than those tidbits, I got nothing for you. Just wait for Sleeping with the Enemy.

This is better than playing Mount St. Mary's, right? I think? Is this thing on?

Do you have the Wat-Dem

on your RSS feed or something? Perhaps you still get home delivery.

Are we playing WV at home this year? And are App State likely to invade in similar numbers/levels of annoyingness?

I am now living for Dec 12.

This is actually a very good OOC pick up for the schedule.
App st. won 24 games last year and finished 92nd in the RPI. They return their star player and 2 other starters. If they can keep that RPI above 100 it will count as a solid victory come tourney time. I also have a friend who went there so it’s always nice to be able to rub a win in a friend’s face.
