Both these teams have opened some eyes early in the season. Troy covered their game vs SEC representative Ole Miss. They allowed just 28 points in that game. Appalachian St. had a wild game vs North Carolina, a game they should have won, but fell in a shootout 63-61. The Mountaineers came back and shocked NCAA Football with a 17-14 win in College Station vs highly ranked Texas A&M. I think after a pair of high-octane games vs two high-level opponents, winning the last at A&M is setting Appalachain St. up for a huge letdown. That is a dangerous situation vs an experienced Troy team that has the ability to give the Mountaineers a game and be around at the end for an excited, and unexpected finish. Make the play on Troy.

Appalachian State at Troy
After playing three of four at home, Appalachian State heads out on the road where they're a .500 team (2-2). That included a 41-13 loss at Louisiana-Lafayette as a 4.5-point favorite. Appalachian State is 2-9 ATS after allowing fewer than 20 points in the last game. They're a big road favorite against a Troy squad that has won three of five with a shot at a bowl. They lost 35-28 at Coastal Carolina as a 17-point underdog. The Troy defense is outstanding, first nationally averaging 8.5 tackles for loss per contest, third in the nation with 3.7 sacks per game, #18 in total defense, #28 against the rush. Troy plays its third consecutive home game and is 37-17 ATS after a game with a turnover margin of minus-2 or worse. Back Troy.
