When Appalachian State has the ball: When Appalachian State has the ball, the Mountaineers will try to run it with a stable full of running backs led by Marcus Cox. The junior runner leads the Mountaineers in rushing with 311 yards and a touchdown in three games.

The Mountaineers have two other running backs — Terrance Upshaw (157 yards, one touchdown) and Jalin Moore (139,

two touchdowns) with at least 100 yards rushing.

Taylor Lamb has completed 56.2 percent of his passes and tossed eight touchdowns, four of them in a 49-0 victory over Old Dominion last weekend.

Shaedon Meadors is Lamb’s favorite receiver with seven catches for 147 yards and two touchdowns, including one against Old Dominion.

When Wyoming has the ball: When Wyoming has the ball, the Cowboys, who use the West Coast offense, are likely to pass it more than they’ll run it.
