Appalachian State 34 Michigan 32
One of the Greatest Upsets in Sports History.
September 1, 2007
Appalachian State University ranked #1 in FCS (Football Championship Series/formerly I-AA) opens 2007 season by going to Ann Arbor, Michigan and defeating the University of Michigan ranked # 5 in FBS (Football Bowl Sub-Division).
110,000 people were in attendance at the Big House.
It was over when... Corey Lynch blocked Michigan's FG attempt with just seconds remaining. But Appalachian State had knocked the wind out of Michigan's D -- and Wolverines fans -- long before that.
Gameball goes to... Armanti Edwards. The sophomore QB threw for 227 yards and three TDs and rushed for one more. More important than the numbers was the composure he displayed in the Big House. Heisman hopeful?
Stat of the game... 5. That was Michigan's rank entering this game. Since 1978 when the NCAA began classifying I-A and I-AA, no I-AA team had beaten a I-A team ranked in the AP poll before this game.
This would be the final season opener for Michigan's Legendary Coach Lloyd Carr. The Michigan Wolverines would go on to finish 2nd in the Big Ten Conference and defeat the Florida Gators (Quarterbacked by Heisman Trophy Winner Tim Tebow) in the Capital One Bowl, 41-35.
Appalachian State University would go on to win its 3rd consecutive FCS national title (2005, 2006, & 2007), defeating the University of Delaware, 49-21, at Finley Stadium in Chattanooga, TN.

hey, Now more than ever D-I FCS is the most competitive its been against the FBS ever before. It really show how much the talent pool is evening out ovver both division I subdivisions. GO BLUE HENS!!
i really see where your coming from i would feel the exact same thing. jus like ive never told anyone when ohio state lost to purdue i was happy for purdue deep deep deep deep down inside.
yes we all know michigan wasnt as good as we thought they would be last year, but put it into perspective, everyone thought michigan was supposed to be a national championship contender durin the preseason. that is like montana goin INTO usc, and knockin off the trojans... even if the trojans ended up havin an ok season after that, we would still all be shocked that a divion 1-AA team knocked out a powerhouse like michigan was at the time.
i disagree. this game shouldnt be considered a huge upset. Appalachian State is the best team in the division 1-AA. they're really good. They won they're division championship like 100 times.
ok true but its the freaking michigan wolverines i hate them but, you have to admit they are the best tam in college football history! they have the most wins ever. i hate them with all my heart but come on!
