Result:
LOSS

Once upon a time, Troy was a force in the Sun Belt Conference, but the program took a five year slide. The Trojans are back once again, finishing at 9-3 on the season. This is a team that held Clemson to 30 points at Clemson - their second-lowest home output of the season. Troy has a very good defense for a Sun Belt team, allowing just 22 points per game on the season. They will face an Ohio team that is right with them, as the Bobcats have allowed a stingy 22.2 ppg. They have not allowed an opponent to get to 30 points in their last 12 games, despite facing Tennessee, Western Michigan, and Toledo. Both of these teams can hold their ground defensively, and each is below average offensively. This game should be a game of field position, as neither team has much of a quick-strike offense, and sustaining drives will be tough because the defenses will be the best units on the field in both cases. Make the play on the UNDER in this one.
