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.

  • Wow I remember watching this game, I remember the final moments like I watched it yesterday. I can't believe that almost five years have gone by since then. It's amazing how time flies without even realizing it.

  • 13 people were mich fans. LOL.

  • I would be ashamed of my university for eternity if this would happen to my school.

  • still don't get why they didn't run the clock down then kicked the field goal so mich doesn't get the ball

  • This isn't 1927 anymore, Michigan is irrelevant just like Notre Dame

  • The Michigian State stadium workers needed extra mops to clean up the bleachers than usual after this.

  • I love how Coach Jerry Moore says "It just shows ya we got good football in I-AA football" As an alum of another school in the FCS I hate it how the FBS gets all the attention and everyone looks down on FCS. Love seeing all those Michigan fans stunned and speechless.

  • What's the only similarity between MSU and marijuana? They both get smoked in bowls.

  • 190 michigan fans likes this. and 12 went to ohio state fans

  • Michigan looked exhausted on that last drive, like they were running in quicksand.
