Why we're excited for Appalachian State at JMU
With a win Saturday, JMU would match 2020 Coastal Carolina for the best 11-game start to a season in Sun Belt history.
After starting the season 3-4 - with all 4 losses coming by one-score - Appalachian State has won 3 in a row, with all 3 wins during the streak coming by double digits.
James Madison is ineligible to participate in the Sun Belt title game as it completes its two-year transition period to FBS. If the NCAA declares the Dukes eligible, they are in the driver's seat in the East.
Coastal Carolina clinches the East with losses by Appalachian State and Georgia Southern.
The last time JMU was on 'College GameDay'
Prior to this weekend, James Madison University hosted "College GameDay" two other times: with Villanova on Oct. 14, 2017 and with Richmond on Oct. 24, 2015.
