App State vs Old Dominion Preview
These are the two fastest teams in the Sun Belt in terms of tempo — both rank top 25 nationally in seconds per play.
JJ Kohl, the 6-foot-7, 240-pound monster quarterback for App State, has opened things up for the Mountaineers now that he’s won the starting job. They’ve scored 78 points across their past two games.
Meanwhile, Old Dominion’s defense has been imploding. The Monarchs have allowed 111 points across their past two games. They can’t tackle, and they can’t rush the passer.
At the same time, Old Dominion is capable of scoring 30 to 40 points with Colton Joseph at quarterback. He ranks 22nd nationally among qualified quarterbacks in QBR, and he has five games with 50-plus rushing yards on the season.
When he has time to read a defense, he knows where to go with the football. He’s been producing tons of explosive plays in a clean pocket (13.6 aDOT, 15 TDs, 14 BTTs).
App State’s defense has been below mediocre, ranking 111th nationally in PFF’s Coverage and Tackling grades. The Mountaineers have allowed 23 passing plays of 20-plus yards this season, which ranks 93rd nationally.
I trust both quarterbacks to put up monster numbers in this game, especially considering the weather looks perfect in Norfolk on Saturday.
Pick: Over 62.5 (-110, bet365)
