Penn State defeats App State 45-38 in overtime, as Appy Valley almost becomes a thing

Ladies and gentleman, let me start by saying what an amazing game between App State and Penn State to kick off the 2018 season! Appalachian surged with a 28=point fourth quarter to take the No. 10 Nittany Lions to overtime. Appalachian entered this game with a lot of youth and questions but I think it’s safe to say those questions have beee answered.

First off, Zac Thomas is a leader who (along with Jalin Moore) will lead this App State team in 2018. Thomas threw some beautiful passes and showed great poise from the get go.
