Underdog Showdown: Troy and Jacksonville State Clash in High-Stakes Bowl Battle

Underdog Showdown: Troy and Jacksonville State Clash in High-Stakes Bowl Battle

Troy is not only a great name, but a school that had a decent campaign, ending the season with an 8-5 record. They finished first in the Sun Belt West conference and faced James Madison for the outright title. As you are probably aware, James Madison made it to the College Football Playoffs. That has caused a bit of drama, and I could be wrong, but I don’t think Troy would’ve taken their place had they upset James Madison. This is a bit of a scrapy team, though. Yes, they had five losses, and some of them are really questionable, but some were not bad. They lost to Clemson 27-16 early in the year when Clemson was still considered a good team. Then they hosted Memphis, and this one was a headscratcher as they lost 28-7. They dropped games against Arkansas State and Old Dominion in the middle of November. The Old Dominion one was particularly ugly as they lost 33-0. It was a competitive game against Troy, they were down 17-14 at halftime, but in the fourth quarter, James Madison finally broke it open and won 31-14. That final nail was a fumble recovery for a touchdown.
