While the transfer portal has made teams successful in some cases overnight, that isn't what is happening at Appalachian St. The Mountaineers have built on solid recruiting, and brought back all five starters this season. It has led the Mountaineers to their most wins since 2009, and before the season is out this 21-5 team will eclipse that mark. UL Lafayette is 9-1 in their last 10 games but the Mountaineers, surprisingly have the highest altitude of any team in the east, and this is a difficult place to play. Appalachian St. is 12-0 at home on the season where they have been winning by an average of 20ppg. They will take note of a hot LA Lafayette team and beat them convincingly at home. Make the play on Appalachian St.
