JONESBORO -- Having lost its previous two games in heartbreaking affairs that came down to the last play, Arkansas State will look to rebound and reach bowl-eligibility in its regular-season finale against Appalachian State on Saturday at Boone, N.C.
The Red Wolves had two opportunities at home to reach the six-win threshold, but they fell 27-21 to Southern Miss on Nov. 8 and 34-30 to Louisiana-Lafayette last Thursday. ASU (5-6, 4-3 Sun Belt Conference) has won its past two road contests at Troy and South Alabama, but will need a third road win to keep its postseason hopes alive.
