When Appalachian State has the ball: Appalachian State’s offense relies on a running game led by Darrynton Evans, and a passing game led by Zac Thomas and a group of receivers that can go deep or convert third downs. Evans has gained 722 yards rushing and Thomas has thrown for 1,295 and 11 touchdowns. Appalachian State leads the Sun Belt in scoring at 41.0 points per game, but Georgia Southern leads the Sun Belt in rushing defense with 133.0 yards per game.

When Georgia Southern has the ball:

Quarterback Shai Wertz runs the Georgia Southern offense, which is ninth in the Sun Belt Conference at 308.6 yards per game. The Eagles face an App State defense that is second overall at 326.6 yards allowed per game and gives up just 19 points per game. App State blocked its fourth kick in a 30-3 win over South Alabama on Oct. 19. Appalachian State has also sacked the quarterback 18 times, which leads the Sun Belt.
