Heart: Troy 41 -Kansas State 37 Head : Kansas State 37 Troy 27 Norm: Troy 53 Kansas State 51 in triple OT Weather; 81 at lick off 88 at end of game with 12-15 mph varying direction breeze calm for Kansas) With a few variable clouds. By the way much better than 5 days ago projecting 102. Norm says: take the over!

PS watching college football final. Alacrapa QB did quite well and then a press person asks Satan: Given how well he played against the farting unicorns of MTSU how do you think he’ll play the rest of the year?” Obviously, I am not a fan of Satan but some of his reply’s are pretty good. How this applies to Troy versus KSU We Got a little complacent and asking Sumrall how we will play against a much tougher KSTATE is going to be answered in a very similar way as to neither he or Satan have crystal balls. Obviously, we hope that let down in quart 2 will motivate Troy. In a way, I am kind of glad we go in with not as glowing a game as KState against SEMO. It is hard (very hard) for college kids not to draw conclusions from an experience or fact.

We didn't hang fitty on SFA, so I guess we have some sort of policy against hangin fitty.

If Troy plays like they did last week it will be a blow out something like 55-7
If Troy plays clean I think it’s closer but I think we still lose. Kansas State is a play off contender I think. 35-21
If Kansas State makes mistakes and Troy’s clean. I’ll take Troy 33-26

Watched Kleinman’s presser for us. Blah blah a little and Gunnar is experienced and Kimani is a good runner. That is pretty much it. Question posed of what his loss two years ago to Ark St and last year to Tulane lesson for Troy. Paraphrase: Their good and their quarterback is experienced. But nothing else except they expect to win and when you have a team that thinks that they can give you a problem in the fourth quarter and I do expect it to be a four quarter game.” Not sure what I expected to him to say but THIS I CAN ASSURE YOU WITH ABOUT AS HIGH AN ACCURACY EVER MENTIONED ON THIS BOARD. “I too expect this to be a four quarter game….most are!” You guys can quote me. I know it’s not what he meant but heck sometimes we say things that just don’t sound as good repeated back as when we said them. At least that’s how I remember him saying it.

Troy-23 Kstate- 21
I expect the Trojans to be real conservative to win the T.O.P Troy defense comes up huge with 2 turnovers Vidal goes for 154 yds 2 TDs Watson 17-25 200 yards 1 TD Asa Martin 4 rush att 32 yds 3 rec 75 yds 1 TD.

KSU is pretty tough. The Kstate line is a top 5 in the country. KSU sports Florida States starter at running back from last season as well as a 4* wr from iowa. As Alabama found out, running the ball is not an option. The defense is full of D-1+ talent at 7 of the 11 positions on the field. KSU vs Bama last year, Saban had to put together a package to bring the number one overall pick back to play a non-playoff game(First time in modern history). This 3-3-5 D crashes the line every play, leaving the over top in 1v1 coverage. To win Troy will have to toss it. Clean game: 42-7 Cats. What I actually think: 35-17 Cats

Then some Nebraska dude said it. This game is going to shock you. My favorite pregame coach speak ever repeatedly came out of Lou Holtz. So, in his immortal words: “we will be lucky to stay on the field with you”. You guys are big and very well coached and your QB is the real deal. Lou again here “ I just hope I can convince the guys to get off the bus to play the game”

Whoever takes the W home, you don't hold Troy O to 7, or even 17.. Looking forward to a great trip to "what's that place?" Kansas. Cheers!

If we don’t turn the ball over 28-24 good guys.
If we turn the ball over more than once, I fear a blowout.
