Appalachian State (7-0) vs. Georgia Southern (4-3) Game Preview
What’s Going To Happen
Is there any stopping Appalachian State?
While SMU is getting the primetime ABC slot on Saturday night against Memphis, ASU is right there in the mix to get the Group of Five’s New Year’s Six bowl slot.
The Mountaineers have allowed 17 points in their last three games, they have a big showdown next week at South Carolina with a chance to take the NY6 dream to a whole other level.
First, they have to stop the Georgia Southern running game.
The Eagles are on a three-game winning streak and can make a massive move in the Sun Belt title chase with an upset win.
It took a little while, but the offense is starting to work again like it’s supposed to with 299 rushing yards or more in its last three games. When the O hits that 299 mark, it’s 4-0 on the year, 0-3 when it doesn’t. Over the last two seasons, the Eagles are 13-0 when running for 275 yards or more, including in last year’s stunning 34-14 domination of Appalachian State.
There’s one problem.
Appalachian State has allowed more than 155 rushing yards once this season, giving up 230 in the win over Charlotte.
The Appalachian State rushing attack will outgain Georgia Southern’s.
