BOONE, N.C. — Playing for the fourth time in the last 14 months, App State and Louisiana share plenty of familiarity.
Asked on Twitter about the possibility of creating a trophy for the evolving rivalry, App State head coach Eliah Drinkwitz considered a clever but matter-of-fact response.
"Yeah, it's the Sun Belt Championship trophy, because that's what it's come down to," he said. "I think everybody understands what the game is about."
The Mountaineers will play host to Louisiana in the Sun Belt Championship Game at Kidd Brewer Stadium for the second straight year.
