James Madison overcomes 25-point deficit, shocks Appalachian State

Appalachian State was well on its way to a victory over James Madison on Saturday.

And the Mountaineers weren’t.

The Dukes trailed by 25 points in the second quarter but scored the last 29 points of the game to down the Mountaineers, 32-28.

Kaelon Black’s 4-yard touchdown run for the Dukes capped the comeback with 10:36 remaining.

Appalachian State had 28 points with 6:10 left in the second quarter. The Mountaineers did not score again.

Appalachian State’s (2-2, 1-1) final drive stalled when Chase Brice threw an incomplete pass on fourth-and-9 with 49 seconds left.

In a college football coincidence, James Madison had a come-from-behind, 35-32 win on Sept. 20, 2008, when the teams last met.
