When Appalachian State has the ball: Look for the Mountaineers to establish their running game, using Marcus Cox as the primary runner. Cox gained 115 yards in the Mountaineers’ 20-13 overtime loss to Tennessee on Sept. 1, but it was his 36-yard catch-and-run touchdown pass from quarterback
Taylor Lamb that turned heads at Neyland Stadium. Deltron Hopkins had success on running jet sweeps on mini-passes from Lamb, which allowed the Mountaineers to get outside away from the teeth of the Volunteers’ defense.
When Old Dominion has the ball: Ray Lawry ran for 112 yards on just 14 carries in the Monarchs’ 54-21 win over Hampton last week. Old Dominion quarterback David Washington returns this year from a knee injury that sent him to the sidelines last season. He threw for 187 yards and
four touchdowns last week. App State’s defense held Tennessee to just 127 yards rushing and 192 passing, and controlled the line of scrimmage for most of the game. Inside linebacker Eric Boggs had 12 tackles for the Mountaineers.
