Troy

Unread post by appbio91 » Mon Sep 12, 2016 8:26 am

It struck me this weekend that when I saw the Troy Clemson score that the first thing that crossed my mind was wow Clemson must have played awful. That is the same attitude that pissed me off when we did so well against Tennessee. Should give our mates credit for showing up and having a good game plan. The Troy game is marked on my calendar as a big one for us.

I watched some of the Troy game and it seemingly went a lot like our Tennessee game. Their defense came to play. Their offense had its moments, much like ours did against UT, but this Troy team isn't going to be an easy W.

Troy reminds me a lot of Georgia Southern in that even in a down year, they have good athletes. Or, Clemson just struggles with teams from Alabama....

The first thing I thought of was how Troy came real close to beating us last year and that they may be really good this year.

Clemson has struggled more than expected each of the first two weeks, so it's possible they're a little overrated at 2. However, even if they're in the 10-20 range, playing them that tough on the road bodes well for Troy.
