ESPN will host the broadcast for the 2021 Boca Raton Bowl matchup between the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers and the Appalachian State Mountaineers. The game is set for Saturday, December 18th at 11:00 a.m. ET.

Appalachian State (10-3, 7-2, SBC) is fresh off a Sun Belt Conference Championship game loss to Louisiana. Still, this is a very good mountaineers team that has gotten better as the season has gone on. The offense is solid, ranking 24h in the nation, but the defense is stellar. That group is allowing just 19 points per game, which ranks them 16th in the nation.

They’ll be tested early and often against the Hilltoppers (8-5, 7-2 C-USA) high-flying offense. WKU is scoring an average of 43 points per game, which ranks second-best in the entire FBS. Quarterback Bailey Zappe has had an absurd season, throwing for 5,545 yards, 56 touchdowns and just 11 interceptions. Those are career numbers for some quarterbacks, but for Zappe, that’s just 2021.
