Troy has opened the season at 4-2. The two losses were against some strong competition in Ole Miss and Appalachian St. The Trojans played above the line in those games and covered them both by a combined 13.5 points. Troy has been impressive thus far as they have covered all 5 of their games vs FBS opponents. Texas St. is off a huge upset win over Appalachian St as a 19-point underdog. The stats tell a different story however as they were out-gained by over 100 yards. This looks to be a huge flat spot for the Bobcats taking to the road after a huge upset. There isn't much else on the Bobcat's resume, and I think Troy will have both eyes open here after seeing the Bobcat's big win. Make the play on Troy in this one.
