CHARLOTTE, N.C. — App State closed the 2020 season with a bang thanks to its record-setting performance in the Myrtle Beach Bowl. On Thursday night, the Mountaineers take their next nationally televised show to the Bank.
App State opens the 2021 season with an ESPNU game against in-state foe East Carolina at Bank of America Stadium, home to the NFL's Carolina Panthers. Kickoff for the first game of the Duke's Mayo Classic is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
The Mountaineers' first appearance in Charlotte's uptown NFL stadium — the "Queen City Takeover" with an App State logo in each end zone is officially a home game — will double as the first meeting between the western and eastern N.
