I don't think Michigan football has ever recovered from this lol
They've had, what, one big bowl win since then? Against Houston in Hoke's first year.
Not fully lol
Three wins thank u v much. We just so beat Florida the defending national champs that season as Lloyd Carr’s grand finale when they had Tim Tebow as heisman winner at QB. And it was vs VA tech when hoke won his bowl game. Then we beat Florida again in harbaughs first season in the citrus bowl
mgoblue97 What has Harbitch done since? Any Big Ten Championships? Any Bowl wins since his first one? How many wins vs OSU?
@@scottyarbour2570 He got a winning record vs Sparty. And at least he copped a bowl victory
I was on the sideline for this!! I was a young true Freshman linebacker for App State, never played a down on the field but I was able to dress out and travel to the big house and be on the sideline. We had 1-2 injuries to older, more experienced linebackers during practices in the days leading up to the game so they dressed out 2 younger backers and brought them up to Ann Arbour. Craziest day of my life, will def never forget it. Played for App state for 2 years before transferring to another school before my Junior year. I’ll never forget those 2 years in Boone!!
Thank for putting the Southern conference on the map.
What a great moment to defeat the #5 team in the country.
Where’d you transfer to?
@@heavyizthacrown-5842 Probably Furman.
I watched this game live on tv and it was unbelievable.
I bet half of the App team couldn’t even walk the next day lol them boys fought hard
you mean because of all the cheerleader pussy they got all night long?
Yeah because they butt fucked each other all night long
KidKarries you mad because Michigan sucks
if I remember correctly I was reading an article about it last year and apparently they were all WRECKED after this game something like 1/4 of the team was injured or something
Anyone who saw the size difference during the coin toss felt that.
Miss this sportscenter, it's gotta come back
Zenigundam da na na, da na na
Street 101 that’s still my ringtone to this day 😂
ESPN is ALL Political and with the events of the 2020 Pandemic, ALL Sports may be in for a wake up call...... In the distance, I can hear the tone of a lone bell slowly ringing at the demise of arrogance, an industry and the cash cow may have finally run dry.......
@@stephenbrown2567 lmfao
@@stephenbrown2567 It's funny to see comments from years ago
I have zero connection to Michigan or App State. Just a huge college football fan. And to this day that is probably my favorite radio call ever. Those guys were going absolutely bonkers in the booth.
Sean Harris Sub to me
For sure, you can’t help but feel the emotion in that radio call.
Dude our radio announcers were REALLY good and I was sad when they left
Thats what its all about. Thats the difference in CFB vs any other sport- the passion
Jeremy Harrelson bullshit, EVERYBODY knows golf is the most passion driven sport dude come on
How many batteries did it take to beat Michigan? 1-AA
GOOD ONE BHAHAHAHAHAHA
lol Nice
Ba-dum-thhhsss
Awesome... LMAO 😂
hahah that's a good one! GO Blue!!!
11 years to this day, Appalachian State didn't care how good Michigan was as the #5 ranked team in 2007, they just outplayed them.
stopped in red zone, 2 blocked punks, another turn over...Michigan deserved to lose
This was the first time in history a top-5 FBS team fell out of the AP poll entirely as a result of a single game. Loved it.
That whole 2007 season was parity, this game was its apex and it was only week one
"One of the great upsets, IN SPORTS HISTORY!"
Zenigundam Maybe. But first off, I said ONE of the great upsets, not THE greatest. Second, I was simply quoting the announcer at the end of that game, so...
Zenigundam lol, I don’t think he got hurt bro
Zenigundam I am calm. I was simply using all caps to emphasize my point and make it as clear and concise as possible. Not arguing with you, just clarifying myself
Zenigundam actually they weren’t as big since Michigan was #5
@@RobbieStacks90 Stanford is an FBS school
I currently am a student at App state. This video gives me chills everytime I watch it. Its great to see how far our football program has come. Thank you Jerry Moore for building one of the best programs in the country.
Possibly the best. Only Mike Leach comes close to Coach Moore.
Watching that blocked kick at the end never gets old.
Great radio call as well!
I know one better. Check out the FINAL play of the game during the 1989 regular season matchup between Alabama-Penn State.
I’ll give you a spoiler: field goal.
Roll Tide! 🐘🇺🇸👨🏻🦳
2 kicks blocked?.. they deserved to lose this game.
Lay Music Productions and App State deserved to win with 2 blocked kicks
@Jason Kopf
...which is why they deserved to win. Lmao. You argued for no reason.
My wife went to Appalachian State, she was so excired!!! Now she is in heaven, watching this everyday!! Go APPS. KICK ASS!!!!!
This game pretty much set the tone for the whole season. I see 2007 as the season of upsets
Zachariah Partney Yes.. West Virginia vs Pittsburgh was crazy too, amazing season for CFB
Ethan VanderHoff as a Mizzou fan 2007 brought out the best and worst feels...
My Kentucky team had a great Season...We snapped several streaks that year, as well as beat the #1 overall, and eventual National Champion LSU Tigers. We got ranked as high as #8. That was our Coach Rich Brooks final Season. From there until 2012 when We found Our new Coach Mark Stoops, we had several more disappointing Seasons, but it was, and IS a process...All the recruiting He did in those Years has Us where We are now! Everybody knows the Kentucky Wildcats are College BASKETBALL "blue-bloods", but Coach and all of Our Assistant Coaches and Trainers deserve a HELL of a lot of respect for DELIVERING, FINALLY to Us long suffering Kentucky Football fans what they had trusted Us to believe in...Giving Coach a bit of time to get the Guys from Ohio that We NEVER used to get, and FINALLY We Cats fans have a Team that We can be proud of! 5-0 for the first time since 1950 ranked for the first time since 2007; after Tonight's win, We will probably end up 12-13 I'd say...and have defeated 2 ranked; 1 Preseason ranked Team(s). The highest bowl We have been to in recent memory is the Music City Bowl, other than the Tim Couch led Hal Mumme Team which made it to the Outback Bowl which is the highest Postseason Bowl Game I've seen Us play in my 32 years. We've been to the Music City Bowl...which is a bust...But for an SEC Team that's absolutely starved to finally be able to stand up and COMPETE they satiated Us for the time being.
BUT THIS SEASON?! Who KNOWS what's gonna be possible?! #BBN #SNELLYEAH #WHYNOTUS #UKFOOTBALL
wasn't 07 when Boise State beat OU
It is look it up
My first college football game I ever went to my uncle is a app state grad so we went only living 45 minuets from the big house. After app state went down in the 4th my uncle wanted to leave to beat traffic but I begged him to stay. We stayed and the rest was history. As a 12 year old I was just so excited to see history made. Every year when they replay these moments I get goosebumps. A great game and one of the coolest things I’ve ever witnessed!
Could you imagine if you guys had left?! He would never forgive himself as a fan for leaving
I bet in the end he was pretty glad you stayed lol
I remember watching this game with my grandpa and I got so ecstatic after seeing the blocked field goal I ran around the house yelling in joy
Here after Texas A&M. So so amazing to see App State hasn't lost that magic. College Football isn't college football without games like that.
As a Michigan State Alum, i love this games so much.
Same here as the son of parents who first met at and graduated from Penn State…my brother is a penn state student as well, and this never gets old for any of us
Honestly this game marked the beginning of the end of Michigan football relevance.
and now they back
@@k-ri2023 are they?!? Nice UGA game
@@bigorangenation41Id say making the CFP is pretty relevant.
greatest moment in college football history
God no. It's definitely up there. Maybe 2nd or 3rd.
This upset will never get old! Love anytime Michigan gets upset in the big house
The giant-killing bandit come back in 2022 again.
Mountaineers stuned FBS#6 Texas A&M (by 17-14) on Sep. 10, 2022.
They were 18-point underdog against Aggies. That's also a great upset, although spread was smaller than the Michigan game in 2007(33-point!),
Like on The Big House in 2007, a heavy silence fell over the Kyle Field...
The oddsmakers didn’t even put up odds for whether Michigan or App st would win this 2007 game outright. At least you could make money in 2022 by betting on App St outright
2021 and this STILL resonates! Miss-again has NEVER been the same since.....nuff said.
How about now??? 😂😂😂🎉
@@matthewbartow1876 🤣 The "Title" that they won this past season is tainted....but Miss-a-gain loves the taint area anyway so guessing no big whoop.😂
@TheStuport They beat PSU, Ohio State, Alabama and Washington post-Stalions. Case closed! Nuff said.
@@matthewbartow1876 By scandalous and devious ways. AFTER they answer to The NCAA Rules Committee, their title and Trophy will get yanked. Pretty obvious why Harbaugh got out of dodge real fast.
I know it had no impact on the outcome, but let's take a minute to appreciate the hustle on the part of Michigan's kicker who, after his kick was blocked, managed to run down the App. St. player and prevent the TD. Again, not that it mattered, but what a show of hustle and pride.
Although Corey Lynch (the guy who blocked the kick and nearly took it all the way) was tackled out of bounds he did fumble the ball. Now if he was tackled further from the sideline that would’ve counted as a fumble and you never know what could’ve happened after that had a Michigan player picked it up.
I was there in the crowd that day. The disbelief of the Michigan fans was remarkable. As a Michigan State alum I couldn’t have been happier.
Did Michigan State have a home game that day? And if so, why weren’t you at that game?
@@CraigMcGuinn why do i see ScUM fans at Spartan Stadium on gamedays? Not when MSU is playing ScUM either.
@@CraigMcGuinn Because he was bathing in the tears of scUM fans
What was cool about this was after this game. The AP poll ranked app state number 25. The first and I believe only 1-AA school to rank in the top 25
One of the best games ever in cfb!! Miss these football days.
i'll never forget this, boone is my hometown!
Almost did the same thing to Penn State lol
almost
Shoulda
Coulda
Woulda
38-45 😭
App state is not a double A school anymore, its a bcs school and won a bowl last year
App State is no push over, and have proven that they belong in the FBS. Arguably, App State and Boise State are the two best non Power 5 teams in football. Sure, you could say UCF is currently the best non Power 5 team, but their success is more recent. App State, on the other hand, is consistent, as they destroy their in conference opponents, and barely lose to the Power 5 teams.
2:46 “IT’S YAAAARD SALE!!! YARD SALE IN THE BIG HOUSE!! AWWWWWWWWWWwwww!”
The biggest upset in college football history. Bar none.
Greatest upset in college football history.
Edward Kelly I think when Florida A&M knocked off the gators in will muschamps final season as coach was a good 1
@@caseytidwell6981 you mean georgia southern beating Florida
I’m a Florida fan but I swear we always fall under the radar over that game lmao when we really shouldn’t
@@jhaylonchilds2128 Florida wasn't even ranked when they lost to Georgia southern try again
@@armandoherrera301 I never said they were ranked try again
What makes this more unbelievable, not only did they win back to back championships, then beat Michigan, but that year they won their 3rd consecutive championship.
Talk about talent.
For anybody who remembers how crazy the 2007 college football season was, this was the start to the many upsets that would follow that year!!
It's been almost thirteen years since this happened seems like it was yesterday. They made the whole state of North Carolina proud that day. Everyone expect Michigan Fans became App State fans that day.
I was there row 93 and the blocked kick was coming back our way. 13 years old got the ticket framing. Charlotte NC represent# Boone NC
One of the best moments I've ever seen
Anyone here after App just upset Texas AM?
I was in Iraq in 2007. I am an App St Alumnus and there were some Michigan fans in our unit. Had a great time grinding them down (all in fun)
I am so glad you got to experience such an unexpected moment of joy during the hardships of war
This made Buckeye fans happier than any other college football team
Watch the App State players reaction video after 11 years - After Jackson scored the first touchdown “We gonna live!” 🤣😂. LOVE OUR APP STATE BOYS!! ❤️
“You just scored on Michigan!” Love my Mountaineers 😂
App State would win the FCS championship that year. They moved up to FBS after the 2013 season, one year after Jerry Moore retired (he coaches App State for 24 years).
They won 3 in a row…2007 was their 3rd
Greatest upset of all time
I'm here after Appalachian State upsets #6 Texas A&M. History just repeats itself and App State is a very good football program.
That loss devastated the Michigan Wolverines that season because they went from the number five team in the country to an unranked team that season.
Not just that season...in 1 week
However, they would bounce back, after the blowout to Oregon. They finished the 2007 season 9-4, in the top 25, and got a win against last year's champions, Florida and Tim Tebow, in the Capitol One Bowl.
As a Buckeyes fan, this lives rent-free in my mind.
I remember someone on College Game Day made the joke "I'm not surprised, App State is the best football team in North Carolina... And yes I'm including the Panthers in that."
That’s hilarious
I remember this like yesterday: PSU had won their game, this day. People in the stadium found out MICH lost, and we heard the stadium from our apartmemt complex. That night? Another story.
FCWP me too
Great day for *ALL DIV-1 FCS!* App State made people _respect_ 1-AA football!
Nowadays if Michigan beat app state it’d be an upset 😂
Remember this day men, for it will be yours for all time. Classy.
13 years ago today, Appy State went into the big toilet and beat the forest rats. A day that will live on forever. Go blow
Between this and the botched punt vs Michigan State, the Wolverine football program is responsible for two of the biggest FAILS in sports history!
I’m a Ohio state fan so I watch this A LOT
Appalachian State was just to good for them. What a great game. Go MOUNTAINEERS!!!
I’ll never forget this game
As a Buckeye fan. I was 16 when this happened and nothing is greater than this moment... Greatest upset in College football history!!! Xichigan has NEVER recovered from this to this very day........ ⭕-H!
This does put a smile on my face
So many chills app state is beast for this
Still gives me chills.
When sportscenter was the night show to look forward to
My two favorite teams. Ohio State and whoever is playing Michigan
You should edit that latter part to “whoever is playing against Michigan”. The Michigan football players on their team playing for Michigan can be “playing Michigan”
Last Wednesday was the *3* year anniversary of when "When Appalachian State football stunned Michigan in 2007" was uploaded. 🤓
EDIT- 10:50 P.M.: *finishes video 5 minutes later*
I found out about this game while watching SportsCenter that day!
Just wondering what Michigan State & Ohio State Fans thought about this game
I Remember this game I was in ironwood state prison in California and watching this Saturday morning and thinking wow college changed a lot lol
Has somebody made a documentary on this game? Like a 30 for 30 thing? I want one!
So do I! But we should wait until 2027 to begin demanding ESPN for one. It should be told from the App St perspective as well to make it more interesting
My favorite game of all time! 😂😂😂😂 GO BUCKS!
You mean the Bucs, right? Bucks refers to the NBA Milwaukee Bucks team
@@CraigMcGuinn Bucks - as in The OHIO State Buckeyes. I love college football. Pro football? Meh.
I'm watching this while it's 14-14 army vs michigan
One for the books!!
I watched this live. It was amazing!
That’s why we love sports
And now App State beats No. 6 Texas A&M.
I was watching this I’m Iraq about to head home for R&R. MWR was going bananas for those dudes. Good moment!
good luck coming home!
I have Penn State on upset alert today. I feel like if App St gets a big play early on, they will gain confidence to be able to hang around in this game and possibly upset the Nittany Lions
Malik Jones almost happened to Penn state, UT, and Wake
Any team App State plays against should be put on upset alert. App State is no joke.
Whose here after the Texas A&M game😂
Literally the best game of football ever played at any level
My dad got degrees from App State and Ohio State. You can imagine...
I still get goosebumps every time he blocks that kick, absolute classic 💯💯💯
Everybody forgets that these App State players play football too.
I love watching this even after all these years. I had forgotten about the 1st and goal FG with 30 seconds left. What in the hell was the App St coach thinking? You’ve got to bleed clock, for crying out loud! Anyway, it all worked out in the end.
We had no timeouts
Andrew Ingram So what? 30 seconds is too damn long. Run it up the middle, then ground the ball with 4 seconds left. You guys are damn lucky Manningham’s catch didn’t ruin this game.
Andrew Ingram Let me explain a little about my mindset. I’m a lifelong Sooner fan, and I have suffered through horrific defenses for almost a decade. Under no circumstances would I ever want a Mike Stoops led defense to have to defend an offense for 30 seconds while the offense only needs 3 to win. I don’t know if you remember, or even care, about the time Oklahoma State beat Oklahoma on a Tyreek Hill punt return with just about a minute left. OU had already punted, but Ok State committed a penalty, so Bob Stoops decided to punt again. Most everybody rips Bob for doing that, but I perfectly understood his thought process. He was trying to bleed as much clock as possible because he knew his defense couldn’t defend jack squat of anything. Even if he only took 8 seconds off the clock, that was worth the risk to him.
So anyway, when I remembered App St had left enough time for Michigan to win it, I just thought, wow, so stupid. Because I am just used to seeing defenses crap the bed and get gashed by big play after big play.
13 years later, Michigan still hurting
Edwards now a receiver in cfl
The radio call at the end is just.... it just sums that whole game up.
I love at the end when he can't even say anything else and he just let's out one final "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"
The only upset in college sports history bigger than this was when UMBC beat UVA. Funny thing about that upset I jokingly picked them in a bracket
Was that bracket the one that did the best?
We almost did the same thing to Tennessee, Wake, and Penn State
You live in NC to I take their football equipment. It sucks that taylor is gone he was a pretty good QB
WND_ MaKo Zach Thomas seems pretty good though. The best player we have had however is Armanti Edwards
@@andrewingram2520 good point
@@andrewingram2520 we also have Jalin Moore
Forgot Auburn.
Never gets old lol.
App State Class of 2006, still gives me goosebumps.
15 years later and they upset Texas A&M in aggieland!
Anything is possible!
I remember seeing that score scroll across the bottom and assuming it was an error… then the “Game Break” highlight guy interrupted and showed the ending…
Almost did it to penn state today good fight boys
Go app, fight app, go, fight, kick ass
appy state is right up the road from me. that was the shit when they beat michigan. stunned everyone here
Im pretty close to Caldwell County!!
I love this game, GO GREEN!!
Best game ever, GO APP ST.
Michigan beat MSU that year hahah.
Was at Ohio State Opener and they put this on big screen and we all laughed as weasel blew it. Great Memory
At least they pronounced Appalachian correctly
Kristin Craig it’s not hard lol
Kristin Craig but I live in upstate SC so maybe that’s why haha
Kicker from FBS program chases down an FCS safety on the last play. You see the skill gap? How did App State even win?
This was the old sports center I loved
I miss the old sportscenter. Good throwback!
Lloyd Carr, got out-schemed on the final fg block. There were 2 wide rushers vs. the offensive left. Nobody touched the inside one, completely untouched. Losers.
