JONESBORO, Ark. — The pursuit of a Sun Belt Conference title resumes with a rare Tuesday night game.
After opening league play with a late-September home win against South Alabama, East Division preseason favorite Appalachian State (3-1, 1-0) faces West Division preseason favorite Arkansas State (3-2, 0-1) at Centennial Bank Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET on ESPN2.
The two Sun Belt heavyweights last met in 2015, and head coach Scott Satterfield is taking, statistically, one of the nation's strongest teams to Jonesboro.
"We've had a good week leading up to this, and we know it's going to be a great environment and a big-time game in this conference," Satterfield said.
