I suspect New Orleans bowl banter ...
Ok...I'll play along
Marcus Jones' season stats:
KOR for TD: 3 (3rd in the nation)
KOR: 32.9 ypg avg: (4th in the nation)
Combined kick returns: 904 yds (3rd in the nation)
44 tkls
4 PBUs
2 ints (1 returned 100+ yds for TD)
Sun Belt Freshman of the year
Did I mention he was a true frosh?
Check these out (national stats):
Troy Sacks: 12th / 3 per game / 36 sacks
UNT Sacks Allowed: 101st / 2.5 per game / 33 sacks allowed
Looks like Fine won't be so fine against Troy.
Troy Tackles For Loss: 5th / 8.42 per game / 101 Tackles For Loss
UNT Tackles For Loss Allowed: 115th / 6.54 per game / 85 Tackles For Loss Allowed
Defensively we will likely win the line of scrimmage
Troy Kick Returns: 2nd
UNT Kick Return Defense: 107th
Marcus Jones has three returns for a TD in the last few games. This is a another huge mismatch to give Troy great field position.
Troy Red Zone Defense: 1st / 58%
Troy Rushing Defense: 7th / 3.03 ypr
Note: Hansen has able to put up big yards not just because he was a great passer, but because our Achilles' heel is a running QB. Without his ability to run, he wouldn't have been as effective through the air. The Troy defense is best against a true pocket passer. With your top running back out, and our 7th ranked rush defense, Fine will have to try and win this game on his own. That's a tall task even for a 1st Team QB going against this Troy pass rush. I won't even get started on your defensive statistics.
And before you say look at the competition, all of the major outlets say there is virtually no difference between our schedules.

I like Troy's matchup against a pocket passer. I was initially worried that Fine was a dual-threat passer like Hansen.
If there's a wager I'd make in this game, it's that Troy will have at least 1 interception.
Troy should not have issues with Fine. It's dual threat QB's that can give them issues.

That and TO offenses. We will probably lose to Georgia Southern next year.
