Sun Belt Power Rankings: Week 6

Last week: Off; This week’s game: Tuesday at Arkansas St.

Honest question: Outside of UCF, could Appalachian State be the best G5 team in football?

The Mountaineers have been dominant on both sides of the ball this season and took the #8 Nittany Lions to overtime. They currently sit four spots from being ranked in the Coaches Poll, and six in the AP poll.

Appalachian State will have a national audience to themselves on Tuesday as they travel to Arkansas State. A win and a few strategic Top 25 losses could have the Mountaineers on the cusp of a national ranking.
