These two teams are no stranger to playing in altitude but Laramie is much higher and is a tough place to win in. The Cowboys have played well this season and should be a bowl contender. App. St. struggled in their game with UNC and now they will face a team with defense who handles the ball well at the line of scrimmage. The Cowboys beat a good TCU team at home in their season opener and put up a battle against the Longhorns. The Cowboys will control the game and the clock and they will grind down on the Mountaineer's defense and pull away in the second half. Wyoming as a home favorite of 7 points or less are 2-0 ATS in the last three seasons. App. St. has failed to cover in six of their last eight games.

Wyoming are 6-2 SU in their last 8 games at home. Wyoming are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games against an opponent in the Sun Belt conference. Appalachian State are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games. Appalachian State are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games played on a Saturday. Appalachian State are 1-5 SU in their last 6 games played on a Saturday when playing on the road. App St. when the line is +3 to -3 are 3-10 ATS since 1992.

Best bet: lay the points with Wyoming.
