Troy discussion

Question, saw they invited the public to watch practice Thursday. They just leaving after that to fly down? Thought they would be leaving earlier than that.

It’s a bus trip and Drink mentioned having a Thanksgiving meal on Friday. Not sure I think the big Thanksgiving meal is a good idea but I’ll leave that to the experts.

So they are practicing tomorrow and bussing 8+ hours to Troy? When exactly would they leave?

He was specifically asked about having the meal on Friday and he said we don’t play until 5, I’m going to go for it.

I went back and listened again. He did say Friday but he said that when the get to Montgomery they'll have the meal. I think he misspoke when he said Friday. I think we can test assured they will not be having Thanksgiving dinner before the get on Friday.

I'm sure they'll fly after doing that. Cant say that 100%, but it's likely.

I think the schedule is more like....

Practice Thanksgiving morning. Bus down the mountain and fly to Montgomery in the afternoon. Thanksgiving dinner Thursday night at team hotel. Leave Montgomery after lunch time and head to Troy. Kick off at 5 pm central.

Heading to Troy Friday morning, expecting a well played game. Hopefully I will find some tailgate friendly fans....

I've found the Troy fans to be much like App fans - proud, knowledgeable, good-natured. Like every fan base, they've got a handful of nuts. The Troy stadium has an awesome tailgating area for businesses and groups right beside the stadium. I wandered around there talking football with folks the last time we played there and had a blast. Their alumni house is across the street from the stadium. That area will be packed with tailgaters. Travel safely.

That makes more sense. I just heard “bus”.

They've earned the opportunity to get trounced by us.

This.

Dang. I wish we weren’t wearing white gloves, especially our defensive backs. I thought we had that figured out.

The DBs can wear whatever color they want...haha, i think they should go for "invisible".

Good to see Watson featured. By all accounts, he is a good kid. I'd love to see him fill the hole left by Sutton.
