I watched that earlier and it was pretty entertaining. It was surreal and funny to see only Troy highlights, but the scoreboard in the corner of the screen showing the game getting increasingly out of hand.

I realize it's a homer production for their fans, but I couldn't help thinking, "How can we be losing? We had all these good plays!"

It looked to me like there was a block in the back on their interception return, but maybe I don't know what a block in the back is.

You saw it right,, had to be called back, but they didnt see it , I guess?

they had so few highlights in the first half they showed four plays three times in a row. some of their defensive highlights were stopping Howard for a short gain. that was grim for them

Yeah, beggars and choosers.

There were only five penalties called on Troy and only three on UAB. I suspect a lot of things were missed during the game by the refs, including the obvious block in the back. However, I'm not complaining. The excessive long and frequent TV timeouts made the game long enough in the hot and humid weather.
