Appalachian State reprised its familiar and comfortable role as a giant slayer last week as it went into College Station and shocked No. 8 Texas A&M, 17-14.
That game marked App State’s second win over an AP top-10 opponent in program history. This week, the Mountaineers return home and welcome Troy to Boone, North Carolina.
Troy dropped its season opener at Ole Miss before returning home to knock off Alabama A&M last week.
This week’s game will be the Sun Belt opener for both teams. Appalachian State has won six of the seven meetings between the teams since it joined the conference.
