Oh man what a melt. I just took a shower and cooled off. We are going to be ok.... we won't win The Belt... but overall, I like where the program is going. Smith will improve... Barker will return next season... New talent may be available... Kelly Bryant, Jarrett Stidham etc.. We will have Coach Brown... We have a winnable P5 opponent in Mizzou. Totally agree. This is a minor rebuilding year anyways, 8-9 wins is realistic and maybe another bowl win. We’ll return a ton of starters next year + add some transfers (Vandy QB)... our schedule is very favourable (Missouri will have to replace some key players incl QB, Southern Miss will be improved but still young, Akron losing 10 DEF starters, however App St will be a monster next year, maybe even a Top 25 team)... You don't have a rebuilding year in your 4th season. These are 100% his recruits. Sorry that's a load of manure

This was the backup QB's first game as a starter, yes? Y'all will be fine. He'll just have to grow up fast. Troll. Leave. No trolling here. Believe me. Or ask the Troy fans with whom I tailgated at our last meeting in Troy. My perspective is always a little different because I'm an old grandma who loves football and understands the ups and downs of college sports.

The “ it’s a rebuilding year” is crap. At least come up with a inventive excuse. It’s old when our own fan base makes so many excuses about obvious issues.

Watching a video on Instagram with our sideline doing the electric slide or some crap and jumping around with Towells. What the H E double hockey sticks does that crap have to do with football? No wonder we aren't focused.

No wonder we aren't focused. Man I appreciate that you are upset but Coach Brown has forgotten more about football and coaching a team than you "think" you know. I respect you as a player and what you did in a Troy uniform but coach has not forgotten how to coach. Time to circle the wagons.

I wasn't aware doing the electric slide and jumping around was coaching football? I thought that was what cheerleaders did but I guess the game has changed. What points do we get awarded for that just so I know?

Stand around with no energy? if you have to dance and cut up on the sideline to get excited about a college football game then that just said it all. Don't know how we won the 84 and 87 titles without dancing around on the sidelines.....it's a miracle. If that is what you have to do with players today then I'll leave it be. I don't understand or like it though

I agree. Kaleb looked this in his first start. I still have full confidence in Sawyer. This was the backup QB's first game as a starter, yes? Y'all will be fine. He'll just have to grow up fast. Good observation.

Forgive our fans that are dangling from the ledge right now.

I just don't understand it. James!! When your done with the humpty dance go in at right guard. But, times change and I guess this is what you allow players to do now

I've coached HS ball and these kids are totally different than what we were. Biggest thing I noticed was no attention span and if you get in their face or on them they shut down. I just watch our sideline and imagine doing that with Rick Rhodes lol

In fact, one of them gets the "Nathan Harris Spirit" award each week for how they bring the juice on the sideline.

One note on the Liberty Trip. Beautiful area ... my sister lives in Charlottesville and got to do some history stuff too!. Looks like the team has good support ... and couldn't ask for better weather. But, the least hospitality I've at any of the away venues I've visited. One guy spoke to me and welcomed me ... and he was a worker in the stadium. Heck ... at least LSU fans spoke to me a bit ... before saying "Tiger Bait"!!
