Appalachian State at Idaho

Appalachian State has stayed UNDER five of its last seven games while Idaho has gone UNDER all but one of its games this season, including last week's 21-16 loss to UL Lafayette. Idaho held the Ragin' Cajuns to 3.3 yards per carry but managed only 2.2 yards per rush themselves. Matt Linehan finished 13-of-28 for 149 yards with no touchdowns for the Vandals. Appalachian State is allowing an average of 20.4 points per game compared to 26.2 for Idaho, which is scoring 23.4 points per contest. The Mountaineers average 29.6 points, however, that includes a 54-7 win over FCS Savannah State. Appalachian State has gone UNDER its last four road games and the Vandals have stayed UNDER four straight at home dating to last season. Also, Idaho is 5-1 UNDER its last six conference games. The Mountaineers have seven defensive starters back from a squad that gave up only 18 points per game in 2016. Look for another UNDER in this matchup.

Idaho at Appalachian State

October 22, 2016

3:30 PM Eastern

The Appalachian State Mountaineers had a lot of success on the FCS level, and just a couple years into the FBS they put together an 11-win season last year. They run out of the triple-option, which is tough to defend for someone that runs it well, simply because defenses just don't see a lot of it. While they have not been as good as last year's team running it, they are still generating 4.5 yards per run vs. a schedule of teams allowing 4.0. Idaho struggles to run the ball and the strength of the Mountaineers' defense is against the pass, so the Vandals are going to have issues maintaining drives in this one. Idaho is also poor at stopping the run, which I am sure will encourage Appalachian State to run more than the 45 rushes they average per game this season. Triple-option teams tend to get off fewer plays, and with success against a poor run defense, the Mountaineers may put it on the ground 55 times or more, and the clock will continue to run. This one stays UNDER.
