Apart from the second half of the UCA game, I can’t remember a time when this team has enjoyed a significant amount of time with a lead. The Red Wolves play a brand of football that is terribly exhausting to watch.

On the latest Fun Belt Podcast, Troy University SID Adam Prendergast reminds us that the Troy defense is still the power of the Sun Belt. Additionally, we parse the Week 3 results, ponder Week 4, and I go nuclear on the Red Wolves.
“OR” gets the boot in Week 4, with James Blackman listed as the undisputed starter, with Coach Butch Jones citing his downfield ability and leadership as the contributing factors.
Either Hatcher or Blackman need to establish that they run the huddle, and nether can wait until the second half to make the declaration.

The Red Wolves are, after a mere two weeks, the nation’s leading pass offense, racking up 920 yard via the air while bombing the end zone 9 times.

How good is Las Vegas? The line on Memphis vs. Arkansas State was +5.5 Red Wolves.

On September 11, the Tigers darken The Cent in Butchboro. The win over UCA was jolly good fun, sure. But the stakes are higher on Saturday, somehow. We don’t share a conference. We have few common opponents. Though we claim the same recruiting grounds, the beef between the two programs is more personal than professional – especially with Memphis recently enjoying the national success Arkansas State has always wantonly craved.
