Furman hogged the football for 38:51 to Western Carolina's 21:09. Furman fell behind early when a fumbled option pitch was recovered by Western Carolina's Rod Dunlap at the Paladin 30.

Two drives ended in fumbles at the ASU 10 and 16, and a third possession netted a 27-yard Danny Marshall field goal with 2:40 to go in the game, but only after Furman, trailing 13-7 at the time and with backup quarterback Josh Stepp on the field, had driven to the Mountaineer 1 before being penalized for illegal substitution on second down. Both teams lost four fumbles, but it was Appalachian State that took most advantage of the turnovers. A Stovall sack and fumble recovery at the Furman 40 helped put the Mountaineers on the board. After a 13-run by Alan Atwater to the 27, Rockhold’s 42-yard field goal gave Appalachian State a 3-0 lead less than four minutes into the game. In the second half, with the Mountaineers nursing a 10-7 lead, Jon Chasteen blocked a punt by Furman’s Jeremiah Van Dora at the Paladin 23, and the Mountaineers turned it into a Rockhold 34-yard field goal with 39 INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS seconds left in the third quarters and 13-7 advantage. “The bottom line is we didn’t execute offensively,” said Furman head Rushing: F — H.

Furman’s problems in the red zone began shortly thereafter when the Paladins failed to capitalize on a fumble recovery by Cedrick Ritter at the Appalachian State 24. A 20-yard pass from Moore to Bratton moved the Paladins to the Mountaineer 2, but ASU’s Daniel Traylor stripped Furman fullback Al Means of the ball, and it was recovered by Corey Lynch at the line of scrimmage to end the Paladin threat. Midway through the second quarter Appalachian State mounted its most impressive drive of the game, covering 80 yards in 10 plays for a 1- yard touchdown plunge by quarterback Richie Williams and a 10-7 lead with 4:26 to go in the half.
