R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl
The Big Easy is always a fun place to be; even more so when it is to play in the 2015 R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. On paper, the Appalachian State Mountaineers should have steamrolled the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. On the field, it was a different story.
The Hilltoppers jumped out to a 10-0 1st quarter lead only to see the Mountaineers come back with 13 unanswered points in the 2nd quarter. Not to be outdone though, Western Kentucky dominated the 3rd quarter with 14 unanswered points. Leading by a score of 31 to 13 early in the 4th quarter, it looked like the Hilltoppers were going to get the upset victory. That is when the Mountaineers decided to start playing again; running off 18 points to close the 4th quarter and send the game into OT. The game quickly came to an end when the Mountaineers scored on a short running play and their defense was able to hold the Hilltoppers at the goal line. What a game!
