Two VERY tough opponents loom after a matchup with UMASS (not a gimmie). Long way to go before getting ranked/access bowl. Nothing wrong with these threads, just saying.

Western Michigan is in the drives seat to get one of the Big Six bowl bids. However, in order for our Trojans to have any opportunity, we'd have to win out (which would be a tough road to achieve, as we all know) Boise State would have to lose one more game, Houston would have to get beat again, Navy might have to lose once more, as well as San Diego State. There are a lot of roadblocks ahead to make this happen but it is wonderful to at least be in the 'conversation' rolling into the month of November.
We just have to take one game at a time but regardless how things turn out this season, we all know that Troy is headed in the right direction and getting some respect from the AP as we currently sit at #29 in the Nation.
Go TROY!

Yep a lot all Troy can do is in the immortal words of Herm Edwards " That is why we play the game!"

Isn't it the highest rated conference champion? Yes, that is correct. This is the reason Troy would have to win out, thus winning the Sun Belt Championship, and the other teams (Boise State, Houston, Navy, San Diego State) would all likely have to lose again. Western Michigan would have to lose at least one game (preferably to a subpar team) to drop below us in the final rankings, if things were to all play out in our favor.
As we all know, the only thing we can control is our own little world, the other stuff would have to fall into place in order to get our name in the hat for a Big Six Bowl bid. Again, it is just amazing that in year two of the CNB era, we can even have such a discussion going into the first weekend of November! I think we should all be proud of the fact that Troy is starting to receive a little love from the Sports Writers, Coaches and others who control the polls. We still have a long way to go but definitely moving the needle in the right direction!
Go TROY!
