Coastal Carolina picked up just their second-ever win against Appalachian State on Thursday night. Grayson McCall threw for 253 yards and two touchdowns in a victory where the reigning SBC player of the year clearly played through some pain.
Coastal’s explosiveness and App State’s mistakes put the Mountaineers in a tough position from the jump and they never quite recovered. The Coastal offense also limited App State’s chances to close the gap by holding the ball for 37 minutes and 56 seconds.
Coastal have now won 17 home games since 2020, which is one of the highest totals in all of FBS.
