I didn’t get to watch the game last night so I am watching tonight. I read a lot of comments about the bad officiating and up to the end of the third quarter I wasn’t overly concerned. They had a big missed pass interference against us in the first half but it appeared that we got away with one in the third quarter. The roughing the kicker was bad but at least might have been as they called it. The intentional grounding was insane and surely will justify an official sanction against the referee crew. The comeback touchdown overcame the call and at least it means that it didn’t cost us the the game. Now a missed OPI so it appears the calls get worse as the game progresses. THTDM really stepped up and and stopped them on 4th down. Love hearing the band really putting out the sound. The running has been awesome, which opened up the pass. Tez Johnson was outstanding! Cheap shots by WK. crazy bounces of the ball keeps WK in the game. DK is a beast. What a great win! Typically the officiating balances out during the game. It just had a feel in real time that every call went the WKU way. Great job by the Troy players and coaches to maintain focus.

I watched the ESPN+ which will have bias, as to the announcing, and they were trashing the calls by the refs against Troy. Stating that there were a couple of times Troy got away with something but on the whole WKU got away with quite a bit. As said earlier, they will probably get a talking to about this seemingly "I've got eyes in my head" comments by both announcers.

good win against a good team whose only loss is an OT loss to Indiana.

Guys,
This was the best overall road game I have seen the Trojans play in a very long time (App State was also a solid performance). The atmosphere was awesome in Bowling Green. It was amazing to see how many fans left with a few minutes to go when WKU got down by 14 (after scoring 73 the previous weekend). The players were fired up heading to the locker room and were so grateful for the support from the Trojan Nation. I pray Gunner recovers quickly, we're very fortunate to have two very experienced QBs that know how to handle our offense. We must maintain focus and not think about a 10 win season, just prepare for the next team coming up and everything else will work itself out.
The coaching staff has things moving in the right direction.
What a great weekend!
Go TROY!

Since the departure of XHCNB for me.

I’d go a bit further and say we have a bit of power. This board threw a big enough tantrum that they got rid of voldemort and hired the guy we wanted. <- That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I recall this board was quite mixed about the selection of a new HC.

The first time, I wasn't completely sold, but this time I watched some youtube and talked to some folks that know him. As I recall, I wouldn't be crazy saying this time, HCJS was the Troyfans.com favorite.

Sumrall should have been the coach the last 3 years.

On the flip slide like Bourbon he only gets better with age.

Speaking of bourbon… Coach said for fans to stay at their tailgates a little more to enjoy a couple more beers and get liquored up to be rowdy at the start of the game.

Define "We". I recall this board was quite mixed about the selection of a new HC. I wasn't mixed. I was never excited about the previous hire and came out of the gate going "well....ok...it doesn't excite me at all but I guess this is the horse we're going to run with so let's make the most of it". That's what I tried to do. I don't remember when it went from that to "ok, this is bullcrap - get this clown outta here" but I try hard to remain more on the positive side which doesn't mean I'm dismissive of the negatives but those tend to be obvious and piling on just makes things worse. But at some point, it's time for the fans to pile on and let the powers-that-be know we're voting "no confidence". I wouldn't say I think the fans and those of us on this forum played a big role in the change. I would say that we are a part of the ingredient that goes into baking the cake. We play a part but you probably couldn't identify it in the final outcome. That's probably as it should be.

If we can bring the same energy the mighty few brought at Bowling Green, the illegal eagles won't have a chance.
