Football 2013 finalized schedule announced

The Appalachian State football organization announced the finalized version of its 2013 schedule Monday.
Students and fans can expect home games against rivals, including Georgia Southern and Western Carolina.

App State will also play University of Georgia Nov. 9 and Montana University in non-conference battles away from home. The Montana game’s time will be announced at a later date, but will take place Aug. 31.

This is the first time the Mountaineers will play the Georgia Bulldogs, who went 12-2 last year and won the Southeastern Conference East Division title. They were ranked No. 4 in the 2012 USA Today coaches’ poll, according to goasu.com.

Appalachian will try to repeat last year’s 35-27 win in this year’s home opener against the University of Montana.

The Grizzlies went 5-6 last year overall and 3-5 in the Big Sky conference. They are 174-24 all-time when at Washington-Grizzly Stadium.

App State’s Family Weekend is Sept. 28 against Charleston Southern, Homecoming is Oct. 12 against Samford and Black Saturday is Oct. 26 against Georgia Southern. All three games will begin at 3:30 p.m.

Ticket information will be announced soon, according to goasu.com.

We hope you appreciate this article! Before you move on, our student staff wanted to ask if you would consider supporting The Appalachian's award-winning journalism. We are celebrating our 90th anniversary of The Appalachian in 2024!

We receive funding from the university, which helps us to compensate our students for the work they do for The Appalachian. However, the bulk of our operational expenses — from printing and website hosting to training and entering our work into competitions — is dependent upon advertising revenue and donations. We cannot exist without the financial and educational support of our fellow departments on campus, our local and regional businesses, and donations of money and time from alumni, parents, subscribers and friends.

Our journalism is produced to serve the public interest, both on campus and within the community. From anywhere in the world, readers can access our paywall-free journalism, through our website, through our email newsletter, and through our social media channels. Our supporters help to keep us editorially independent, user-friendly, and accessible to everyone.

If you can, please consider supporting us with a financial gift from $10. We appreciate your consideration and support of student journalism at Appalachian State University. If you prefer to make a tax-deductible donation, or if you would prefer to make a recurring monthly gift, please give to The Appalachian Student News Fund through the university here: https://securelb.imodules.com/s/1727/cg20/form.aspx?sid=1727&gid=2&pgid=392&cid=1011&dids=418.15&bledit=1&sort=1.
