Is it proof?

Appalachian State? For the first time ever, a non Division 1A team has pulled off a win over ranked team, and this was not only a ranked team, but one of the teams expected to be in the hunt for the BCS Championship game. Is this proof that anyone can beat anyone?

Keep in mind that Appalachian State is not just anyone. They are the 2 time defending national champions in Division 1AA. I know, I know, that's a big jump from 1AA to 1A, but still, this is a team that those who are serious enough about college football could have told you would be a tougher opponent than even some of the Big 10 teams they will face later.

But still, no one expected them to win this one. It's an exciting thing to me though because it just shows that a lot of these games coming up have a potential for an unknown to win the National Championship.

I don't think it's a joke to say that Troy could have a chance next week. Troy has been known to take on a pretty tough non conference schedule year in and year out, and has been known to pull off some upsets and some close calls. They played Arkansas tough to the end yesterday.

Personally I think it would be a blast if Troy could pull it off. Oklahoma State would be their next opponent, and being in Big 12 country that wouldn't be so bad. Or better yet, to see the title tossed about in the Sun Belt conference? It could be the kind of thing that would make the Heavyweight Football Championship that much more interesting, and maybe get some more attention to it.

Go Trojans!!!
