Appalachian State is Hot! Hot! Hot! [Updated]
If you just woke up from your hangover and didn't hear, Div I-AA Appalachian State defeated No. 5 Michigan Saturday by the score of 34-32 in Ann Arbor before 105,000 fans, which is eight times the number of people who live in Appalachian State's town of Boone, NC. So, to honor ASU for that major upset victory, I present you with what must be one of the worst student recruiting alumni donation request themes that I've ever heard - Appalachian State is Hot! Hot! Hot!.
Michigan might have won if they played that song at half-time. The ASU team might have been too embarrassed to come back onto the field for the second half. Still, congratulations to ASU for that big win.
[Update]
To make up for any hard feelings with ASU fans, here are the last two minutes of their win against Michigan. Enjoy.
ASU fans are likely to use up the bandwith of YouTube watching this over and over. Doesn't that last image of a Michigan fan at the end of the video say it all?

Despite this video's international viewing for the past 3 years, Appalachian State has stronger recruiting than ever. Even Adam Sandler tried to call us out in the Longest Yard, only to have Appalachian win back to back championships!!!
Just had to point out that your little blog comment was lame, lame, lame!!

Hey, I was pulling for your guys and I'm glad that you won. However, the song, whatever audience it intended to reach, is a little hokey and has been passed around the internet for that reason. But, I wouldn't change a thing, and your loyalty to the school is admirable.
