This is a fun one for sure.
Heads up Troy offensive players (like you’re going to read this), #94 plays through the whistle. Be prepared.

Best case scenario for the Trojans. Coastal is the most complete team to visit the Vet in modern history. Luckily there will be a bit of a hangover for them to begin the game.

I was going to say the same thing. Maybe they lay an egg like we did after we beat LSU. We are catching them at the best time.

If we win this one, we might be on the way up and get some respect.

Hope we hit ‘em head on while they look back.

Best case scenario. Coastal win out. Cincy lose a game. Coastal goes to NY6 bowl. SBC gets millions from pay out. Troy gets a chunk and we get rid of (The HC we don’t speak of).

If we win this one, we might be on the way up and get some respect. Yeah, I'm sure. We'll get Notre Dame to play us at The Vet. We'll start next season with top 25 votes. The AD in Tuscaloosa will actually say our name in the same sentence as the word "football." Oddsmakers will stop acting like they've never heard of us. All because Coastal had the grace to pull us up on their coat tails. There's sportsmanship and there's being pathetic. That loss to Ark St. cost us so much.

Funny how during the halftime report of the bama game they talked about Coastal and never once said the word "Sunbelt."
See? It's already paying benefits.

Funny how lat year we gave Coastal the fame on poor play calling and not being able to get as few yards to finish the game ! Our Programs have gone in completely different directions! Today I heard the analyst from ESPN say that this is the time for the coach from Coastal to earn his salary, well next week is the time for (The HC we don’t speak of) to earn his salary! If we get embarrassed like against Missouri, BYU, and Ap he has hot to go !

NOT getting blown out by App. NOT all of the blown leads. NOT lack of discipline. NOT lack of responsibility. Getting blown out by Coastal is what seals the deal for you? Great.

Trust me I didnât want him in the first place. I called for change last year when we were losing giving up 550 yards per game! This year has been inexcusable with the talent that we have! My point is that (The HC we don’t speak of) has not coached us to a win yet ! We beat teams with losing records ! We canât win close games! He is making $670,000. Time for him to earn it !

Coastal has a dual threat QB who will be for four years and he is tough. They are playing with an abandon and success BUT....they are coming off their biggest win with tons of hype. We have good players and there will not be a lack of coming out flat against a team that could be as high as 10th in the country. Coastal did literally everything right to win. We could upset them. We will never out coach anyone. However, the set up is there to potentially make a stab at an upset. There is also the potential to get blown out. The intangibles are going to be heart of our players and how they may actually not play anywhere up to the level they did last nite.
If we still had Neal and VIc with these players we would have a better chance. (The HC we don’t speak of) reminds me of the Muddogs coach in water boy. When things get tough he nuts up. When things going well he can role. Letâs face it Gunnar had on average per pass around 42 secs to pass. We can pass block pretty well and Gunnar has some rust off now and our receivers are better than theirs. So here is to Coastal and no matter how much their coaches say or even they want in their players minds, there is going to be a let down for them. Our chance to win this game is a stunning 10-17 point lead at half because then they will be fired up and (The HC we don’t speak of) is our head coach. That makes it close even with that lead at half. There is always a chance of a Rice Marshall sort of thing where they just get sloppy. However, (The HC we don’t speak of) is still our coach and we need to hope he can not be as stupid as he has shown for two years so that we can win if we get the lead.

It will take us playing all three phases for all 60 minutes (none of this slow start, take a quarter off, or ride a lead stuff - none of those scenarios which have happened multiple times in 2 years can exist).
The Mullets are a darn good team. They just beat what I considered to be sort of a benchmark team in BYU. It wasn’t a fluke. They manhandled both and off & def line that stymied us. And it all starts there. And then they have talent around those lines.
We’re gonna have to play lights out (the ENTIRE game & in 3 phases) & get a couple of breaks. But that’s true anytime the opponent is good. And coastal is very good.

For all the people in love with Coastal....
If "a rising tide raises all ships" is really true, then wouldn't it actually be better if Coastal just beat the hell out of Troy? We wouldn't want to jeopardize the potential top 10 ranking of your beloved "Chants" would we? Are you going to cheer for Coastal to raise the tide? I know, I know, you're going to root for Troy, but a Troy win won't do anything to help Troy in the long run, but it will destroy coastal's dream season. How could you live with yourself?
