  Draft Scout by Conference









  Darrynton Evans scored three touchdowns and 20th-ranked Appalachian State repeated as Sun Belt Conference champions with a 45-38 victory over Louisiana-Lafayette on Saturday. Evans won the game's MVP for the second straight season. Zac Thomas threw for 149 yards and two touchdowns and Daetrich Harrington and Marcus Williams added touchdown runs. The Mountaineers racked up 416 yards on offense, including 267 on the ground in a dominating first half. When asked on the field what bowl he expects his team to play in, first-year Mountaineers coach Eli Drinkwitz shouted to fans, "It better be the Cotton Bowl!" The Mountaineers have now won at least a share of four straight Sun Belt championships. This was the second year there was a championship game.

Drinkwitz pulled a poker chip out of his pocket after the game and thanked his players, saying "we asked then to keep the chip all year long and be motivated to do something that has never been done before. And this group did it. Impressive." The Mountaineers (12-1, 8-1 Sun Belt) accomplished something North Carolina, Duke, North Carolina State and Wake Forest never have -- becoming the first FBS team from North Carolina to win 12 games in a season. Appalachian State defeated Lafayette 17-7 early this season on the road, but this one wasn't nearly as competitive. The Mountaineers entered the game averaging 38.9 points per game and showed their firepower in the first half by scoring touchdowns on their first five possessions -- the first three by Evans -- to build a 35-14 lead. - Appalachian State/AP College Football
