SBC Championship Game at Troy discussion

Unread post by Black Saturday » Sun Nov 26, 2023 9:08 am

First odds I see


APP

Troy -6.5


We are playing the best we have under Clark. I think the Vegas crowd has this line too high. Wouldn’t surprise me if we win outright.

-6.5 is surprising.

1-0!

I hope so. I have a futures bet from August for +$650 on App to win the Sun Belt.

Troy received votes to rank 29th in Coaches Poll.

Being at home, I’m not surprised it’s -6.5. Neutral would be -3.5.

Troy wants revenge because they feel they are better and got robbed by that miracle Hail Mary last year. We need to go out there and punch their teeth in. Leave no doubt in who the better team is.

Troy is 21-2 since the Hail Mary. Only two losses were at Kansas State and 16-14 to JMU earlier this year. They haven't lost to an SBC West team in two years under Sumrall.

Their defense is stout. Run defense isn't nearly as good as JMU, but still only giving up 100 yards a game on the ground. Pass defense is better than JMU's, though. Red zone defense is where they shine.

They're big, physical and make plays. They have fallen off their standard a bit in the last two weeks, but still ground out wins.

I keep it to the basics. Troy, Alabama is in the central time zone. Consider that in your arrival time to the stadium 😂😂

The lowest by far. Has it moved off of that number? I don’t have the App and I can’t find it on their site.

A bookend win would look nice on the shelf. Hail Mary on one end and Championship win at their place on the other. Call it 21-4 then. With 2 losses to App State!

The over/under is 51.5, implying APP will have a hard time scoring as per usual.

Just looked at the weather, wet conditions in Troy all
Next weekend.
