Appalachian State is set to host the ESPN pregame show this Saturday, having Troy on the schedule. Host Rece Davis originally teased the possibility on the air but did not reveal the location. Now, the word is out. Boone, NC will welcome College Gameday to town in the near future.
The timing is perfect for the Mountaineers, who are fresh off an upset of Texas A&M. They played well in Week 1 as well, taking North Carolina to the wire in a thrilling matchup. Appalachian State might have a 1-1 record but it’s been an exciting two games.
As for Troy, they are 1-1 on the season as well. The Trojans opened the year with a loss to Ole Miss, while they took care of business vs. Alabama A&M on Saturday. Appalachian State has more than a credible opponent in town for Gameday.
