BOONE, N.C. (AP) - Zac Thomas threw for 214 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another score and Appalachian State beat Louisiana-Monroe for its first victory as a Top 25 team.

Darrynton Evans added 177 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns to help Appalachian State (6-0, 3-0 Sun Belt) extend the nation's third-longest winning streak to 12 games. Only Clemson (22) and Ohio State (13) have longer active streaks.

The defense limited Louisiana-Monroe's Caleb Evans to 75 yards passing and had two interceptions. Josh Johnson ran for 77 yards for Louisiana-Monroe (3-4, 2-1).
