ETSU's Williams Set to Face Former Team Appalachian State

A Homecoming of Sorts

Former Appalachian State Mountaineer quarterback Taylor Lamb will face his old team for the first time since transferring to East Tennessee State University (ETSU) in 2022. Lamb, a standout performer for App State, led the Mountaineers to a Sun Belt Conference title and a victory in the Camellia Bowl in 2019.

A Difficult Transition

Lamb's transition to ETSU has not been without its challenges. After starting the season as the team's starting quarterback, he suffered a season-ending injury in the third game of the season. Despite the setback, Lamb has remained a valuable member of the team, serving as a mentor to younger players and contributing in other ways.

A Chance to Prove Himself

The game against Appalachian State will provide Lamb with an opportunity to show his former team what they're missing. The Buccaneers will need a strong performance from Lamb against a tough App State defense that ranks among the best in the Sun Belt Conference.

A Special Moment

For Lamb, the game will be more than just a football game. It will be a chance to return to his former stomping grounds and face the team that he once led to glory. It will also be a chance for him to show his current team what he's capable of.

A Big Game for ETSU

The game against Appalachian State is a big one for ETSU. The Buccaneers are looking to improve on their 3-8 record from last season and make a run at a bowl game. A win against App State would be a major step in that direction.
