I'm shocked to see Appy State ahead of all those teams!
I hope this is a regular feature!
Appalachian has played a tough schedule, playing four ACC teams -- losses to Clemson, Wake Forest and Virginia Tech and a win over Virginia.
Oh, glad you said that. I will do my best to make it a regular feature.
