NEW ORLEANS BOWL -- In the largely unpredictable bowls universe, spreads do not get much larger than this. App State overcame the departure of its head coach a year ago and won its bowl by 32 points under an interim. Pulling off the feat twice in a row would be impressive now that Eli Drinkwitz has fled to Missouri. There's no doubt that UAB has an inferior roster, but the Blazers rose to the occasion last year, taking its bowl game by 24 points. Take UAB.
NEW ORLEANS BOWL -- Both UAB and Appalachian State have been solid defensively, but we saw the Blazers' offense struggle a bit at the end of the season. The Mountaineers have one of the more explosive offenses in the nation, as their line does a great job in all aspects. Defensively, their athleticism is enough to give UAB's rushing attack fits.
NEW ORLEANS BOWL -- The Mountaineers have had a great season, but the quick turnaround between the end of the season and bowl season will be difficult to navigate considering coach Eliah Drinkwitz moved on to Missouri. Because of that, the offense will struggle a bit against a tough UAB defense that will be looking to make a statement. The Mountaineers will get the win, but that's too many points to lay.
