Do you think Troy goes 11-1?
Do you think Troy will run through their Sun Belt schedule and finish the regular season 11-1? Or do you think someone will knock Troy off their perch?

I think we drop at least one between South Alabama, Idaho, and Arkansas State. Doubt we get out unscathed.

No... we go 12-1 03-cloud9

But it really is possible. We seem to be peaking at the right time where as we peaked early last year.

It's very possible Troy gets Ranked again. A 11-1 Troy with A 7-5 or better LSU would be a good resume for NY6 bowl

I think it's possible but I remind you that ULM beat a #8 Arkansas team in 2012 and finished 8-5 overall. I don't believe Troy will go 8-5 but wanted to give a warning about getting your heads too high above the clouds! Great job in beating LSU...I don't like them too much.

We beat Oklahoma state in 2008 and still buzz saw through the sun belt. But I get you.

Very true. But ULM also had to deal with tough Auburn and Baylor teams immediately after Arkansas. The toughest games Troy has remaining, at least from what we've seen so far, is Arkansas State and Idaho.

I also think this is an LSU team that will be bowling this year. Troy was fortunate to not have played against Derrius Guice and some other top starters from LSU. Nevertheless, Troy still dominated LSU at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball and purely outplayed them.

I certainly think Troy has a chance at running the table now. Weird things happen in the Belt, like the GS/Troy game and stAte/ULL games last year.

RE: Do you think Troy goes 11-1?
I have Troy down as the game we're least likely to win on our remaining schedule. We just didn't match up against them very well last year and I don't see what's changed to fix that. But I'd still bet against Troy winning 7 in a row. That's just hard to do.

I feel the same way.

Gonna be difficult to do. 1 loss could very well mean we don't win the league.

If Troy does indeed go 11-1, which bowl will they play in?

RE: Do you think Troy goes 11-1?
It will be difficult, but ESPN's FPI gives Troy's remaining schedule 130 out of 130 teams, meaning we have the easiest opponents in the country left. I can't see us going 4-0 between Idaho, South Alabama, Georgia Southern, and Arkansas State.

Idaho is deceptively good and beat us at home last time they came. South is a rivalry game, and GS and ARKST both have our numbers. That's a tough row to hoe. Here's to hoeing out the rest of the way.

Depends on how SDSU and UCF do.... if they lose we could be in a NY6 bowl, currently they are ahead of Troy in G5 in the polls

Otherwise we would be in a sun belt bowl likely

Understand, this is not any kind of putdown at all. I am tickled for you guys (and I'm tickled we're not playing you this year!). I wouldn't be surprised at all if you get that 11-1 so enjoy the season and the highlight reel to come!

It'd be great for Troy, but I don't see it happening. 1 or 2 more losses maybe max.

And USF (undefeated and ranked #16/18), and Navy (undefeated).

I don't anticipate USF making Access Bowl without some losses in other leagues. Would give advantage to SDSU due to strength of schedule
