The Appalachian State Mountaineers will go for their fifth straight win in Week 12 against the Troy Trojans. 

App State defeated the South Alabama Jaguars last week, 31-7. It was the first time all season that the Mountaineers’ defense allowed less than 10 points in a game. Despite turning the ball over four times, App State was able to keep South Alabama out of the end zone, thwarting the Jaguars on all three of their Red Zone appearances.

Troy took a loss to the Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns in Week 11, 35-21. The Trojans were heavily outproduced on the ground, the Ragin’ Cajuns leading the rushing battle with 206 rushing yards to Troy’s 41.

Appalachian State vs. Troy Prediction and Pick

The Appalachian State Mountaineers have been rolling but Troy may be an unexpected brick wall to stop them.

While the Mountaineers’ offense has been better than Troy’s, the Trojans’ defense has done just as well, if not better than App State’s. Troy’s defense is 29th in the nation in passing yards, 26th in rushing yards, and 17th in total yards of offense allowed; all better marks than the Mountaineers.

I think we’ll see a tighter game than the book is suggesting.
