Neither Appalachian State nor Troy are going to find their way into the post-season this year. Appalachian State has a 5-10 record through 15 games, and the offense has not been very effective as they shoot just 39.3% from the floor. They have also not shot well from deep as they connect on just 30% from beyond the arc. Troy has five of their top nine scorers connecting on less than 40% from the floor, so they tend to go through scoring droughts as well, and the free throw shooting can at times be an adventure as just three players on the roster shoot as high as 67%. Appalachian State has had a bigger problem scoring on the road, and it has led to a 21-6 mark to the UNDER in their last 27 on the road. This one doesn't get there, make the play on the UNDER.
