From USA Today: Coastal Carolina ends Troy's win streak There isn't likely to be much chaos this weekend, but there is one flimsy favorite in the championship games. That team is Troy, which has had a tremendous season under first-year coach Jon Sumrall. Troy comes into the Sun Belt championship tilt on a nine-game winning streak and earned home-field advantage, but the Trojans' schedule did not feature either Coastal Carolina or James Madison, who were the two best teams in the opposite division. Coastal was an absolute flop in its final regular season game, losing 47-7 to James Madison. Coastal hasn't been the same team since quarterback Grayson McCall's foot injury in early November, but it's hard to know what to make of that effort -- whether it was just a fluke or perhaps a bit of a reaction to coach Jamey Chadwell being rumored in the coaching carousel. Whatever the case, there's still a chance McCall returns for this game and the bet here is that Coastal's championship pedigree comes through with a conference title on the line. -- Dan Wolken

I say good. I like the vibe this type of write up it gives the team. Much better than Troy is going to mud stomp a cross between a light fixture and chicken talk.

The leftist commie is full of hate and venom. They try to destroy anything positive in our nation. That newspaper is known for fake news. Don’t read it and especially don’t wrap your fish in it.

Playing devil's advocate, there is some truth to this. The east still looks like the stronger division, with CCU and JMU riding at the top. So looking in from the outside, we haven't really had that challenge playing in the perceivably weaker west.
Now, I think our defense can handle a healthy McCall on his best day. But our offense is sketchy on it's best day. So it's fair for an outside party to look at the matchup and question if an offense that can't score until the fourth quarter if it's lucky can get by what it sees as the league's best team(s).
I like being the underdog in these things, though. That's when we play best.

That other school would wreck the east.

I think he is talking about the wrong school with championship “pedigree”. CCU has only been in D1 a few years. And two conference championships does not qualify as pedigree.

U can throw in ESPN as I sit here watching College Game Day and notes and shows the other CCG including the MAC with a couple coverages if UCF and Tulane. They mentioned MWC but yet no Sunbelt that has teams higher than the MAC or MWC. Going to watch a tad longer but not to be at least mentioned in the first half hour is bull for it being on the flagship (other than ABC)
