Thanks. Stat of the day is that Troy has only allowed two touchdowns total over the last four games. Only three field goals have been kicked. Scores of 7, 3, 0, and 13.

. . . and they hit our Punter, No Call . . .WTF

They got our punter on TWO punts not one. I’m not going to scream roughing the kicker but they were definitely running into the kicker. I don’t know how many yards we had left on 4th down but I’m pretty sure if the yards for running into kicker didn’t yield a 1st down it would have been close enough for GJ to consider going for it. 2 extended possessions would have completely changed this game with 4 turnovers

Refs were terrible. Certainly some blown calls that benefited Troy. There were a few that benefited Texas State as well, including a facemask on Kimani Vidal that wasn't called. Nearly ripped his helmet off. The turnovers were killer though.

I realize this may offend some.

But if you think Troy wasn't going to cover, you haven't watched them play.

I took Troy to cover because I have watched us play lol....

I’m not ready to concede that the better and more talented team won the game. TXST won the trenches big time on both sides of the ball and won the rushing battle. You win those 3 things and you usually win that game 90% of the time. The team that caught the most breaks (played less bad) won.

Yards were nearly even, so you didn't win the trenches big time. As one of the cajun fans said earlier, turnovers were forced. They were not just lucky breaks. The better team won, but Texas State played a hell of a game, and very few teams have rolled up that many yards on Troy's defense. Plenty to be proud of.

You should probably not talk football. You clearly didn’t watch that game.
