In their last games of the season Appalachian State beat South Alabama 34-27 and Ohio beat Northern Illinois 26-21.
Ohio Bobcats
Ohio has a very balanced team on offense that ranks 49th in the nation in passing yards per game and 45th in rushing yards per game.
One of the concerns for the Bobcats is their starting QB, as Derrius Vick started most of the season, but was hurt late and misses the last 2 games and J.D. Sprague has shoulder issues. However, both should be ready for this game.
The Bobcats have a solid WR corps with 3 players with at least 460 receiving yards led by Sebastian Smith.
The Ohio duo of A.J. Ouellette and Daz’mond Patterson combined to rush for 1,139 yards this season with 14 TD.
Appalachian State has a solid defense that ranks 17th in the nation against the pass and 28th against the run.

Appalachian State has a solid defense that ranks 17th in the nation against the pass and 28th against the run.
Appalachian State
The key to stopping Appalachian State on offense is trying to contain RB Marcus Cox, who rushed for 1,261 yards this season with 8 TD even though he missed some time with an injury.
In the season finale facing South Alabama he rushed for 192 yards on only 14 carries. He will face an Ohio run defense that ranks 54th in the nation.
The Mountaineers are a run first team, as they only rank 89th in passing yards per game. However, QB Taylor Lamb had a good season and the team has a decent WR corps. Ohio ranks 55th in the nation in pass defense.
