I feel like its a new season after watching last nights game. The team seems to be improving each week. ULM 2 weeks ago was the best game of the year until last night but fell short 22-20 to a pretty good ULM team. we have 6 games remaining with room to lose 1 and still get bowl eligible. We are 1-1 in conference and we dont play the conferences best team stAte. How many games do you see the Trojans winning this year?
I might be drinking the kool-aid but I think we can win At least 5 of the remaining 6 games. As long as TROY plays with the intensity and toughness as they did last night I believe we beat App State, Ga State, Idaho, ULL, and win one of the two of GA Southern and USA.
6-6 season final record with a possible bowl invite from Camellia Bowl.

I think we finish 5-7. I think we lose to USA and GSU and best ULL, the Hicks, the Tech wannabes and the Potato boys but 7-5 or. 6-6 can happen also

I think we win 3 this year. I hope we grow from the win this past week, however New Mexico State was by far the worse team we have played this year and the smallest. Abilene would have destroyed them IMO. While I hope we win the rest, would not decide based on this past weeks game. Saw the defense continue to improve, special teams scored 13 of our points, however IMO Offense struggled at times, and we have to able to throw the deep ball. Missed at least 3 TD on this . Not sure that will improve. Also, QB running should be limitedly used instead of our go to. Your QB should never be your leading Rusher, so glad Chunn got some great runs. Sad attendance, but we enjoyed our day. Go Trojans.

I watched them play Ga Sou and I saw the same team that almost took out the "best" team in the conference. People will glean what they will from Sat...some positive; some negative. The defense was better...offense was better...spec teams TD. NMSt came into this game w/o giving up a sack all season...TROY got 4. It was a good day for the Men of TROY and it's something to build upon.

Hope there is a little something left in the tank! Bowl eligible. Someone will pick us up with it being Larry's last year. I'm calling a special finish.

I see us going 5-7 at best, myself, and one win, while I'm absolutely thrilled with it, does not make me believe we're actually going to go on a run. Every game is winnable, of course, and I hope we do. I thin CLB's departure will fire up the team and it gives me hope. I'd love to go the Camellia Bowl or something.
Don't get me wrong, it's doable - seems like the key is to get two wins out USA, ULL, and GaSo. Even going 5-7 is a great turnaround after losing to ACU.

I think 6-6 is possible, but 4-8 is probably more realistic.jmo

I think most of the teams that we've played for several years have figured out our play calling. The method hasn't changed now for about 4 years. I've had several students sit by me and call the plays as they are being relayed to the team by the four guys that look like they are on fire on the sidelines. It is just too easy to figure out if they take the time to do it.

Not a bad idea to add the sign boards also to confuse the other team also. I've seen teams use 4 like we do plus two back up qbs and two sign boards

2-10. I still think we beat Idaho but we are notorious about playing bad in games we fly to.

Well, yesterday put an end to any bowl talk. I love that you all have sunny dispositions and endless optimism, even after the first five losses, but that is over. I also think 1-11 is a real possibility, but if we win more than 2 more games I would be absolutely shocked.
It really is a shame LB has to exit like this. Interested to see who the new coach is.
