The Black & Gold Podcast

App State travels to ULM to face the Warhawks on Halloween night! Many App State fans might not know this but ULM has given App State more scares than MOST teams in the conference, including ULLLLLLLL. We answer the #BGPMailSatchel as always and are joined by ULM beat writer Adam Hunsucker to discuss Saturday's game.

App State football returned to Boone after nearly a month and did not disappoint! Even though the crowd was small, the weather was perfect and our boys played their hearts out. The highlight of the night MIGHT be the return of FTC which was initially brought on by Caleb Spurlin after a sack. No doubt Coach John Law has an influence! We break down the entire day and experience as well as what happe...

App State football is BACK! Yes. It's true. App State football is back for the first time in what seems like FOREVER to play an Arkansas State team fresh off a victory AND firing two defensive coaches including their DC. We dive into the #BGPMailSatchel and are joined by our favorite Arkansas State fan, Kara Richey!

What should be Hate Week for App State football fans is another week without App State football. But have no fear! We still have the #BGPMailSatchel and AJ has a Top Ten App State vs GaSo wins list for Big C to review!

One of the greatest players to ever strap on the Block A makes his BGP Lounge Debut: Marcus Cox!  We talk about his journey of getting an offer all the way to becoming one of the greatest App State football players in program history!

With another weird midweek App State football game approaching, we decide to spice things up and make the Coors Banquet Beer call to the bullpen to the legendary David Jackson! For new BGP listeners, this is an old school episode if there every was one. Sit back and enjoy a 2 hour #BGPMailSatchel with Boone Area Chamber of Commerce CEO and App State Hall of Famer David Jackson!

App State football shook off a shaky first half to dominate the Camels 52-21 on Saturday. We saw new faces all over the field including that of Nate Noel and Deshaun Davis. But the player of the game title belongs to Daetrich Harrington! We breakdown the Campbell game and discuss where this leaves us moving forward.

App State football wants to get the nasty taste of losing to Marshall out of their mouths ASAP.  That won't be as easy as we all thought. Campbell in 2020 is not the Campbell of 2014 that we all remember as a 66-0 doormat.  This is a team that came within a foot of beating Georgia Southern in Statesboro.  We chat with the Voice of the Camels, Chris Hemeyer, about this weekend's matchup a...

App State football has been the pinnacle of G5 domination for five years. This trip to Huntington to face Marshall was the first time we've seen our boys struggle against peer competition in a while. It was a difficult game to watch as people who bleed black and gold but it's our job to bring you the best analysis we can.  At the end of the day, we love this team, we trust the coaches, a...

App State football's first road trip of the season is here and it couldn't be at a more appropriate location. The App State Marshall rivalry has been dormant for decades but you can feel it ready to explode onto the scene again.  If this rivalry was active during he internet age every App fan would be well aware.  Fortunately this week we have App State OC/QB Coach Tony Petersen joining...

App State took over Club LLLit for the third year in a row. Yes the game was sloppy at points but there was so much positive to take from it.  500+ yards of offense and a defense that gave up a 91 yard drive early in the first quarter and less than 200 for the rest of the entire game! We got all the sloppiness out of the way early so we could focus on Marshall... right? ;-) 

App State football has a game this weekend. Wait... Is that real? Is this official? There won't be fans in the stands but there WILL be a game in Kidd Brewer Stadium all the same! It's our FIRST football preview episode of Season Six! We take a deep dive into the #BGPMailSatchel and have two great guests. Our first guess is UNCC beat writer for the Charlotte Observer, David Scott, who te...

SURPRISE! App State football didn't have a game on Labor Day weekend but that didn't stop us from watching some football! We discuss the games we saw and whether or not the Sun Belt... looks good? We talk Texas State/SMU, Ark State/Memphis, and SoBama/Hurricane Chasers Southern Miss.

It's a sad week for App State sports. Three sports were cut: men's tennis, men's soccer, and men's indoor track and field. Soccer and tennis loses actual scholarships and coaching positions which stings even more. We honor the legacy of those programs as well as dissect the new bowl agreement.

New App State football OLB Coach Cortney Braswell enters the BGP Lounge. If you want a coach that exudes passion and paired with a great personality and a humble heart, you cannot miss this episode! Great stories in this episode!

It's here! Coach Clark honors us with his presence in his BGP Lounge debut! If you know Coach Clark, you know he is who he is.
