We beat Southern Miss. Southern Miss lost to South Alabama, who is in a life-or-death struggle with Alcorn State. And our first half was terrible on top of that, and they gave some points away to us. I ain't buyin' no ticket for the ChipDip Express. I'm not on the bus either, but damn if Brandon Hall doesn't deserve some credit. He has redeemed himself tenfold since 2019.

An eight point loss to Heisman candidate is not a spanking. It's never ok to lose, but it isn't what you say it is no matter how bad you want to believe it.

I'm not seeing any guarantees that this team can win even six games, but this team is not dead in the water, and has qualities (The HC we don’t speak of)'s other two teams did not. We'll have to see how it plays out. We'll likely get a very convincing win against a very bad ULM team next week, and then it's off to a much tougher test in South Carolina, a team that's not as bad as advertised.

We'll see how next week goes. We seem to be forgetting that USM didn't have their starting quarterback tonight and had some key losses on defense during that second drive where we scored (no idea if they came back in).

We may get 1 more win maybe 2.

This OL coach is the difference I see, so far. The line is basically the same, but they're not looking good at all.

It's never ok to lose, but it isn't what you say it is no matter how bad you want to believe it. What reputable paper, magazine, website, or network has him legitimately listed on the Heisman watch? What GOOD team have we beaten, and what GOOD teams are we going to beat? I know, I know, ALL of them now, right? ULM, south, and Texas St. and those are the maybes. ULaLa and SB East? Better brace up.

We may get 1 more win maybe 2. We will beat ULM, Georgia Southern, and Texas State. If you think Troy is bad, you really don't want to trade places with any of those teams.

It's never ok to lose, but it isn't what you say it is no matter how bad you want to believe it. Exactly. 8 points to a team of that caliber is nothing to scoff at. You can’t blame a defense for allowing 21 but you can sure as hell blame an offense that’s that star studded for only putting up 13.

He is more of a dark horse, but a really, really good player.
You think too much in absolutes. Nothing is set in stone so I don't know why you think someone believes we will win "all of them". ULM, GS, and Texas State are far from maybes. They are really, really bad football teams. Texas State just lost by two scores to Incarnate Word. Louisiana is not as good this year, and I would put them in the maybe category. They nearly lost their FCS game (a team on the level of Southern), got pounded by a Texas team with new coach and freshman QB in his first start. That Texas team got pounded by Arkansas the next week. Their game with Ohio was vs a team that trailed Duquense (who?) 13-25 and lost, I forgot the final score.
South Alabama and ULM are on the verge of losing their games tonight to teams that aren't even good FCS teams.

Some of you guys are purposely misinterpreting arguments so you'll have someone to fight. No one on this board is first mate on the (The HC we don’t speak of) Ship. You guys are making that up. Very few would even get on the (The HC we don’t speak of) Ship if we won a ton of games this year, but most of us are on the Trojan Express, regardless of who is the coach, and we love when Troy wins. It's as simple as that. Now, you can get on that train, or you can stay home, watching an imaginary (The HC we don’t speak of) Ship full of Trojan fans that doesn't exist.

I never said he was a heisman candidate… but if you know so much about him you must obviously know he didn’t play for Kirby because he was at Auburn and lost out to Nix.. because family ties… so yeah. Playing for a guy like Freeze will improve your draft stock against lesser competition compared to Georgia, where you play tough teams and your head coach doesn’t even know what the hell the QB position does in the first place. Look at that mans track record with actual talent… Fields would have never rode the bench if Kirby was as Smart as his name suggests…

I understand everyoneâs reasoning for this, but I must say⦠youâre really losing out. I traveled far and we lost, but the energy in that stadium and the feeling of being home tailgating far outweighs what happened on the field for most all of us. The only win (The HC we don’t speak of) might secure this season is when you let one person take away your joy.

The state of our program far outweighs the joy I would have felt over a victory against an incredibly bad Mustard Buzzard team. I compare this to the great victory over EKU. My UNIVERSITY deserves better than this.

Y'all shave your heads. Put on your cardinal and black track suits. Put on your white Nikes. Put on your visor. Now take it off and scratch your scalps. Now say, "We're a really special group of guys. We're Troy Kinda Guys!" Get that dixie cup of cool-aid and hop on the bus.
I ain't drinkin' that cool-aid though, tastes like bitter almonds.
