Troy was scheduled to get BYU at home in 2026 after we visited them in 2020.
Apparently with them joining the Big 12, they've been adjusting their future schedules. It appears Troy got swapped out. Instead of playing BYU at home, we now have a home-and-home series with Nevada.
That's a bummer. Would've been great to get BYU in Troy.

You're right, it would have been a nice home game for TROY. The BYU fans travel well and it would have been a great opportunity to fill the Vet. I do not see many fans from Nevada coming to Pike County to watch their football team.
Go TROY!

I hope we were compensated for our flexibility. I would just like to see more P5 teams on the home schedule. I know that's easy for fans to say. I understand it's hard to get a P5 to go to a G5. But man, how the heck are schools like Akron and Toledo getting Kentucky... Georgia State getting North Carolina and Vanderbilt... La Tech getting Kansas... etc.

I do not see many fans from Nevada coming to Pike County to watch their football team. Go TROY! Nevada has actually recruited the Wiregrass, especially the Dothan area, well. Tyson Williams and Malik Reed (now of the Steelers) are examples. Reed’s father, Anthony, is an all-time great in Troy basketball.

There is more knowledge of Troy’s schedule away from this board than logged into this board.
Patience grasshopper
