Appalachian State vs Georgia Southern Game Preview


Why Georgia Southern Will Win

Appalachian State doesn’t need anything about this game.

It doesn’t matter in terms of bowl games, it’s not about the Sun Belt title – it’s already in the championship next week against Louisiana – and it’s not like this is a big rivalry game.

Of course a ten-win regular season would be nice, but staying healthy for next week is the only goal here.

Georgia Southern might not be running the ball like normal, but there’s a little bit of a passing game, the defensive front can get into the backfield, and ….

Why Appalachian State Will Win

How much does Appalachian State care?

If it wants this game, it’s an easy blowout over a team with no consistent offensive punch whatsoever.

Georgia Southern is in a holding pattern until new head man Clay Helton can take over. Until then, the O has to prove it can get past 17 points – it only did that once over the last five games – and Appalachian State could put up 17 in the first quarter.

The Mountaineer offensive line is dominating, the defensive front lives in the backfield, and …

What’s Going To Happen

There’s the Senior Day aspect to this.

No, Appalachian State isn’t going to pull out all the stops, and it might give up a few late points as it tries to get as many seniors on the field as possible, but it’ll get up fast and have this put away in a hurry.

However, Georgia Southern will keep trying, it’ll keep pushing, and it’ll come up with a few late points.

It’ll be a true go-through-the-motions win.

Why Appalachian State Will Win

So Appalachian State can’t beat the best of the best Group of Five programs this year.

Marshall is the best team in Conference USA – even after the loss to Rice. The Mountaineers provided a fight, and they pushed Coastal Carolina and Louisiana. Those are the three losses. There haven’t been too many problems against anyone else.

But it comes down to this – how are they against the run?

They managed to hold everyone but Marshall and Texas State to under 200 yards – and allowed under 220 to those other two – keeping both Coastal Carolina and Louisiana from going off.

Hold down the Georgia Southern ground game, hold down Georgia Southern. Veteran QB and leading rusher Shai Werts missed the Florida Atlantic game last week and is still hurting.

Week 15 College Schedule

Why Georgia Southern Will Win

Turnovers, turnovers, turnovers.

Appalachian State has cranked up the offense, and the defense is the best in the Sun Belt, but giveaways have been the problem with three picks against Coastal Carolina and three more against Louisiana. In the three losses, the team is -6 in turnover margin, and it’s +4 in the seven wins, only losing the turnover margin once.

Georgia Southern doesn’t screw up enough to matter. It has given it up twice in four games – losing three of them – but the defense has made up for the mistakes with a whole lot of takeaways.

The Eagles have forced 19 turnovers over the last eight games. Force multiple ASU turnovers, control the clock with the running game, and the formula should work.

CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

Georgia Southern has lost four games, one of them was 28-14 to Coastal Carolina, and the other three were very, very tight and could’ve gone the other way.

It’s also 6-0 at home.

The defense will hold up against the Appalachian State balance and will force two takeaways, but the running game won’t work well enough.

The Eagles have only failed to hit 200 rushing yards three times, and they lost them all. They’re not going to run for 200 yards against a fired up ASU D.
