"What we have to do in a short time here is become a more disciplined team, a smarter team and a team that executes better," Carr said at his weekly news conference. Appalachian State's win at Michigan Stadium marked the first time a Football Championship Subdivision team -formerly I-AA- beat a team ranked in The Associated Press Top 25. "There were a lot of people on the team were really in a bad mood and a ·tot of people who took a lot of blame on them selves," offensive lineman Adam Kraus said. "But we had a lot of missed opportunities in there, and it ended up really hurting us." The final blown chance came with Michigan in prime position to kick a game-winning field goal after Appalachian State had taken a two-point lead on Julian Rauch's 24-yard field· goal with 26 seconds remaining. Michigan set up for a 37 -yard field goal after Chad Henne con nected with Mario Manningham on a 46-yard pass with six sec onds remaining.
