Troy Seeks First 2-0 Start in 13 Years | Birmingham News

Troy’s defense must rise to the challenge this Saturday as they host undefeated in-state rivals Alabama State, aiming for their first two-and-oh start in a decade. With dynamic QB Andrew Body on the other side, Troy’s front seven needs to contain him while their secondary tightens up after last week’s struggles. Offensively, the Trojans are still finding rhythm under new coaching, leaning on running backs like Gavin Griffin to carry the load.

If they can match their late-game defensive fire, victory is within reach. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
