Founded in 1976, the Sun Belt Conference quickly rose to the greatest heights of collegiate athletics and the league continues to find itself at the pinnacle of competition as a member of the 10-league alliance of the College Football Playoff. Today, the conference features 11 allsports member and two football only members (Idaho, New Mexico State). The Sun Belt signed a multi-year agreement with ESPN, Inc. in 2012 that results in unprecedented national coverage for the league. Just a year later in 2013, a record seven of eight Sun Belt football teams finished the season bowl eligible.

MEDIA INFO

GENERAL INFORMATION The 2014 Troy University Football Media Almanac is designed to aid members of the media in the coverage of Trojan football, as well as serve as a tool to learn more about the University and the staff associated with the football program. The staff of the Troy Athletics Media Relations office is eager to assist members of the media with all of their needs during the course of the season. Please feel free to contact our office at 334-670-3832 for information regarding credentials, team and player information, interviews, statistics, travel plans, photography, video highlights, press conferences and satellite feeds. The Troy Athletics Media Relations office has certain policies and procedures that we ask you to abide by while covering the Trojans. These are for the benefit of your needs and those of Troy’s student-athletes and coaches. We ask that you please respect these requests in order to create a good working atmosphere for all parties involved. MEDIA RELATIONS OFFICE The Troy Athletics Media Relations office is located on the fifth floor of the Hawkins Stadium Tower in Veterans Memorial Stadium. Enter through the building’s front entrance and take the elevators to the fifth floor. The Media Relations staff offices are located down the hall to the right after exiting the elevators. CREDENTIAL REQUESTS The Troy Athletics Media Relations office will issue credentials to WORKING press only for games played at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Passes for spouses, children or friends will not be issued. The credentials are non-transferable. Any unauthorized use of a credential will result in the pass being revoked immediately. Press passes will be distributed to those working in the press box. A press sideline pass will be issued to working media needing sideline access. Credential requests must be made online at TroyTrojans.com/credentials; no credentials will be mailed via USPS within 10 days of the game. Working members of the media who plan to cover the Trojans on the road are encouraged to make credential requests through the Troy University Athletics Media Relations office at least 10 days in advance of the scheduled contest. WEBSITES AND NEW MEDIA Web-based media sponsoring message boards or chat rooms that allow posting of anonymous information or rumors are ineligible for credentials or access to Troy media functions. Websites sponsored by Rivals, Scout or 247Sports that produce original content on a consistent basis may be granted credentials. If a news-gathering medium has an online site that sponsors anonymous forums, they may continue to request credentials under their traditional medium (newspaper, magazine, radio or television), but will not be granted additional passes or access for online staff. Any online service that places emphasis on the recruitment of potential studentathletes will not qualify for credentials. Credentials will not be granted to any online agency operating sites that are in any way affiliated with gambling, or to “freelance” or “fan-based” sites that are not affiliated with a legitimate news gathering organization. Live, real-time updates of Troy home games are the property of Troy University and unauthorized transmission of such is not permitted. MEDIA WILL CALL Credentials for all Troy home games will be mailed or distributed at the weekly press conferences in most cases. Any unclaimed credentials will be available in the Troy Athletics Media Relations office until noon on the Friday prior to the game, and at the Media Will Call table inside the entrance of Veterans Memorial Stadium on gameday. MEDIA ACCESS All media members are asked to enter through the north entrance (scoreboard side) of the press box, then take the service elevator to the fifth floor press area. Radio, print and TV media are located on the fifth floor, with film and television crews positioned on the fourth-floor film deck.

VETERANS MEMORIAL STADIUM

The Troy University football program unveiled a newly renovated, $18 million Veterans Memorial Stadium as the final piece of its Division I-A move in Fall 2003. The project, which took more than a year to complete, increased the facility’s seating capacity to 30,000, an increase of more than 12,000 seats. Construction began on the project in July 2002 and was completed in time for the Trojans’ 2003 home opener against Southeast Louisiana on September 20. The stadium has seen tremendous growth and change during its 64-year existence. It was built for a mere $65,000 as Memorial Stadium in 1950 and seated just 5,000 spectators. Several renovations followed, including in 1998, when the facility moved from a 12,000-seat capacity to 17,500. Construction began in July 2002 to expand the capacity to 30,000, with the largest part of the project being a new six-story press box structure that houses 27 sky boxes, a state-of-the-art media hosting facility, a unique Trojan Stadium Club area that houses more than 1,000 guests and floors dedicated to sports medicine, academics, as well as strength and conditioning. As part of the construction, the Jesse H. Colley Track, which was housed at the stadium, was relocated - making the stadium a football-only venue. Also gone is the prescription athletic turf, replaced by “AstroPlay”, an artificial surface that closely resembles grass in feel and appearance. Troy became one of the first schools in the Deep South to install the turf. A large-screen, end zone replay board was also installed, along with a state-of-theart sound system.

The strength and conditioning and the sports medicine area was completed and opened in Fall 2004, completing the makeover for the stadium. More recently, the playing surface at Veterans Memorial Stadium was named in honor of the Troy head coach Larry Blakeney for his dedication and success with the program; making the official name now - Larry Blakeney Field at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Veterans Memorial Stadium received a new playing surface prior to the 2012 season and a major audio and visual enhancement prior to the 2014 season. ProGrass, which is the same surface on Troy’s baseball field, was installed as the new field turf. A 1,250 square-foot high-definition video board was installed in the Southeast corner of Veterans Memorial Stadium in the summer of 2014. Additionally, ribbon boards that spanned goal line to goal line on each side of the stadium were installed. The final piece of the upgraded included the addition of a state-of-the-art custom audio system.

TROY RADIO PERSONALITIES Barry McKnight is celebrating his 13th season as the play-by-play “Voice of the Trojans” in 2013. A veteran of the broadcast industry, McKnight serves as the co-host of a sports talk radio show on WMSP-740 AM in Montgomery, where he has served in that capacity for the last 16 years.

Blakeney has been at the forefront of the move of the entire Troy University athletics program from the ranks of Division II, through Division I-AA (Football Championship Subdivision) and into Division I-A (Football Bowl Subdivision). He has run a program that is based on integrity and has been regularly recognized by the American Football Coaches Association for high graduation rates. Throughout his career, Blakeney has been recognized by his peers, by the people he has worked for and with, and by the sporting community at large. He has been named to four separate Halls of Fame, has been named Coach of the Year on numerous occasions and gives generously of his time to almost any group or organization who asks for it. But his impact on Troy athletics goes beyond wins and losses. Yes, the Trojans have captured eight conference titles during his tenure. Yes, the Trojans have literally sent scores of players on to successful careers as professional football players. But the Troy football program has sent thousands of men on to successful lives away from football. Many of the players who have come to Troy to play for Blakeney never had a positive male role model in their lives. That changes when they become Trojans. Even with all of the obligations and responsibilities that come with the job, if you ask any player who has taken the field for the Trojans over the last 23 years, they will tell you that he is a players’ coach. He cares about the young men who play for him, and not just during their time at Troy. From his time as a quarterback at Auburn University, to his highly successful high school coaching career, from his 14 years as an assistant coach at his alma mater when the Tigers enjoyed an unprecedented run of success to his now 23 seasons at Troy University, Blakeney has always been associated with a job well done. His tenure at Troy University has been nothing less than remarkable. During his 23 years, he has led the Trojans to a 175-104-1 record, posting the third-best winning percentage among all programs in the state of Alabama during that span. As the school’s longest-serving and most successful head coach of all time, Blakeney led the Troy football program to an unequaled run of success that has taken the Trojans from Division II to the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) and now to the grandest stage of all, the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). Blakeney has guided the Trojans to 15 winning seasons, including six seasons of 10 wins or more, and he currently stands fourth among all college coaches to have manned a sideline in the state of Alabama with 175 victories, just one win behind Auburn’s legendary Shug Jordan. Since guiding the Trojans into the Sun Belt Conference in 2004, Blakeney has enjoyed what can only be termed stunning success at the highest level of the game. In nine seasons, his teams have won five conference crowns and appeared in five bowl games. During that time the Trojans have won 49 Sun Belt Conference games, the most of any team in the league. Troy has had 96 All-Sun Belt Selections and averaged over 28 points per game, both tops in the league. Troy’s run of five straight Sun Belt titles started in 2006 when, in just the third season in the league, the Trojans captured their first Sun Belt Conference title. They completed that remarkable season by winning the first bowl game in school history, a decisive 41-17 victory over Rice in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. #itsTtime


LARRY BLAKENEY The championship roll continued in 2007 as the Trojans earned a share of their second consecutive title, posting an 8-4 record that included nationally-televised victories over Oklahoma State and Middle Tennessee. The roll did not stop in 2008, as the Trojans won their third straight Sun Belt Conference crown, earning their second appearance in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl in 2008. The season included nationally-televised victories over Middle Tennessee and Florida Atlantic as the Trojans recorded eight victories for the third consecutive season in the FBS. In 2009 Blakeney guided the Trojans to the first perfect 8-0 record in Sun Belt Conference history in earning a fourth straight league crown. He was awarded the Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year Award for the second straight year due to his team’s first outright Sun Belt Conference championship. The 2010 team kept the streak alive with its fifth consecutive crown after finishing the conference season with a 6-2 mark. The season included a nationally-televised victory over Middle Tennessee on the road, and a victory over Ohio in the team’s third trip to the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl on ESPN. The Trojans recorded eight or more wins for the fifth consecutive time playing in the FBS. The program made its first splash in the Sun Belt Conference in 2004 by producing a 7-5 record that included the schools’ first-ever bowl bid, a trip to California for the Silicon Valley Classic. The grand unveiling of a renovated Veterans Memorial Stadium was highlighted by a 24-14 upset of nationally-ranked Missouri that was televised live by ESPN. In 2003, the Trojans posted a 6-6 mark against one of the most challenging schedules in the nation. The slate included eight road games, contests that included traditional powers Kansas State, Minnesota, Nebraska and Virginia. In addition, the Trojans defeated Marshall and UAB, and played four other schools from the Sun Belt Conference. The Trojans played their first official season as a FBS member in 2002 after going 7-4 in their “transition” season in 2001. Included in the 2001 win total were three wins over FBS foes and a monumental upset of SEC power Mississippi State, the school’s first victory over a BCS-conference school. Of the team’s four losses, three came against opponents ranked in the Top 15 nationally; national-runner-up Nebraska, No. 15 Maryland and national champion Miami (Fla.). In 2002, the Trojans were 4-8 against a schedule that included games against two SEC schools, three Big 12 opponents, in-state rival UAB and perennial bowl participant Marshall. The Troy defense finished fourth in the nation in total defense despite the challenging slate. While a member of the FCS, the Trojans enjoyed one of the most successful runs in school history. Over eight seasons, the Trojans advanced to the national semifinals twice and the FCS postseason seven times, including an NCAA-record four consecutive seasons after making the move from NCAA Division II in 1993. When the Trojans jumped to FBS status, Blakeney made NCAA history, becoming one of only two coaches to lead a program from NCAA Division II to the FBS, joining Central Florida’s Gene McDowell. Blakeney’s journey at Troy University began on December 3, 1990, when he was hired as the 20th head coach in school history. During the 1980s, Troy won two NCAA Division II national championships, but the program was in a rebuilding phase upon Blakeney’s arrival. In the three years prior to his arrival, the Trojans had combined for a 13-17 overall record. His first two seasons came during the “transition” period in the move to FCS status. The program was still technically Division II, although it was not allowed to compete in the playoffs. Blakeney’s first team finished 5-6, but a 10-1 second year, which included a 41-7 win over FBS member Arkansas State, gave Troy fans a glimpse of what was to come. Troy hit its first full season of FCS play running in 1993 when Blakeney led the Trojans to a 12-1-1 finish and a berth in the FCS semifinals. The 10-0-1 regular season finish was the program’s first undefeated season in school history while playing a complete schedule. Troy finished the regular season as the top-ranked team in the country according to the Sports Network. The following season brought an 8-4 record and another berth in the playoffs. The Trojans lost in the first round at James Madison, but they proved they deserved a spot among the elite programs, finishing the year ranked 12th. The 1995 season brought the first unbeaten and untied regular season to the school annals when Troy took an 11-0 record into the postseason before losing in the first round to Georgia Southern. Troy entered the playoffs ranked third in the nation. @TroyAthletics

For all of the success the team enjoyed in its first three FCS seasons, Blakeney’s rebuilding skills were displayed once again during the 1996 season after the loss of 23 seniors from the 1995 squad. Going into its first season of play in the Southland Conference, the Trojans won the league by posting a 5-1 mark and a 10-1 record in the regular season. Troy finished the year 12-2 and again marched to the FCS semifinals. That netted a fourth-place finish in the Sports Network Top 25 and a 12th-place ranking in the ESPN/USA Today poll. The 1996 seniors certainly left their mark, finishing their careers as the all-time most successful class at Troy with a 43-8-1 mark over four years. That eclipsed the 1995 senior class that had amassed a 41-7-1 record. Those groups represented Blakeney’s first two recruiting classes at Troy. The Trojans became the first team in NCAA history to advance to the FCS playoffs in their first four seasons of eligibility, and finished with seven playoff berths in eight full seasons of FCS membership. Untimely injuries and four losses by seven points or less doomed the 1997 team as it slipped to a 5-6 record despite an early-season ranking that saw the Trojans rise as high as number two nationally. A return to the FCS playoffs in 1998 highlighted an 8-4 season that saw the Trojans finish 11th (Sports Network) and 13th (ESPN/USA Today) in the polls. The Trojans climbed back to the top of the charts in 1999 when they were the consensus top-ranked team in the country for a four-week period en route to finishing 11-2 overall and winning the Southland Conference football championship. The Trojans also advanced to the FCS quarterfinals and finished with a number six national ranking in all three polls. Senior defensive lineman Al Lucas became the first National Player of the Year in school history by winning the Buck Buchanan Award as the top FCS defensive player. Blakeney won back-to-back SFL Coach of the Year awards in 1999 and 2000, and was also honored as Regional Coach of the Year in back-to-back years by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA). During the summer of 2000, he was honored with the Johnny Vaught Lifetime Achievement Award by the All-American Football Foundation. Prior to his arrival in Troy, Blakeney had a variety of roles in his 14 seasons at Auburn. He began his coaching career as the assistant offensive line coach during the 1977 and 1978 seasons. That was followed by stints with the Tigers’ tight ends and wide receivers coach from 1978 until 1980, and then a focus strictly on wide receivers from 1981 until 1990. From 1986-90, Blakeney was also the Tigers’ offensive play-caller. During that time, Auburn posted a 47-10-3 record and won three Southeastern Conference championships. They also were 3-1-1 in bowl games over that span. Auburn had a 110-50-3 record during his time with the program, including four SEC championships and nine bowl appearances (6-2-1). In 1990, he was honored by the Chilton County Auburn Club with its “Unsung Hero Award.”

PROMINENT PLAYERS COACHED BY LARRY BLAKENEY With more than 30 years of coaching under his belt, Blakeney has coached a number of outstanding players. Here is a listing of some of those players and their accomplishments:

Before joining the coaching staff at his alma mater, Blakeney coached seven seasons in the Alabama high school ranks. He was the head coach at Southern Academy (1970-71), Walker High School (1972-74) and Vestavia Hills High School (1975-76). He compiled a 50-24-2 record during his time as a prep head coach. A 1970 graduate of Auburn University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration, Blakeney was a three-year letterman at quarterback for the legendary Ralph “Shug” Jordan. He was the first sophomore ever to start at quarterback for Jordan, and Auburn played in two bowl games during Blakeney’s career. The 1968 team defeated Arizona 34-10 in the Sun Bowl, while the 1969 squad lost 36-7 to Houston in the Bluebonnet Bowl. Blakeney was a two-sport star for the Tigers, also lettering in baseball (1968-69) while playing shortstop and third base for legendary coach Paul Nix. He earned his master’s degree in education from the University of Montevallo in 1976. Blakeney was born Sept. 21, 1947, in Birmingham, Ala. but grew up in Gordo where he played football, baseball and basketball at Gordo High School. He is married to the former Janice Powell. The couple has three daughters, Kelley and twins, Julie and Tiffany. Kelley, a graduate of Troy University and the UAB Medical School, is a doctor of pathology in Montgomery, Ala., and is married to Allen Argenti. Julie, a Troy marketing graduate, works for an insurance agency in Atlanta with her husband Adam Ivory. Tiffany, who graduated with an international business degree from Troy University, lives with her husband Jason Rash in Atlanta. The Blakeneys have four granddaughters; Caroline, Madeline, Danielle, Megan and one grandson, Joseph.

Troy’s running backs have had a string of accomplishments under Beckles with the most recent success coming in 2013 when true freshman Jordan Chunn found the end zone 14 times. He was named to the College Football News Freshman All-America Team after leading all freshmen in the country in rushing touchdowns. In his first season Beckles worked with Troy’s talented pair of runners in DuJuan Harris and Shawn Southward. The duo combined to rush for over 2,000 yards and help Troy to a New Orleans Bowl championship. Harris has gone on to a successful NFL career most recently helping the Green Bay Packers make a deep playoff run in 2012. Southward finished his career as the first Troy running back to lead the team in rushing in four straight seasons. Southward ranks third all-time in Troy history with 2,793 career yards and Harris is in fifth with 2,636 yards. The pair also rank second and fourth, respectively, in career rushing touchdowns with 33 and 27. Beckles was charged with rebuilding the running game in 2012 and he did just that as Southward became the seventh Troy player to top the 1,000-yard threshold after rushing for 1,012 yards on 194 carries. Southward was named to the All-Sun Belt second team for his efforts. In 2011, Beckles tutored a trio of running backs - Southward, D.J. Taylor, and Chris Anderson - who combined to rush for 1,140 yards and 11 touchdowns. While under Beckles’ tutelage in 2009, CMU running backs combined for three 100-yard rushing efforts. The six running backs the Chippewas used during the season combined for 1,299 yards and 10 rushing touchdowns. CMU used a combination of five different running backs in 2008, with the group combining to rush for 1,043 yards and 12 touchdowns. Ontario Sneed led the group with 548 yards and a team-high eight rushing touchdowns. Sneed finished his career eighth in school history in career rushing yards. In 2007, five CMU running backs combined to rush for 1,392 yards and 16 touchdowns. Justin Hoskins was an All-MAC third team selection after running for 664 yards, averaging 5.8 yards per carry and scoring 10 touchdowns. Beckles, who coached receivers at CMU during the 2003 season, returned to CMU following one season as an assistant at Georgia Southern. He coached the Eagles’ receivers and served as recruiting coordinator for the 2006 season. Beckles sandwiched a pair of stints at Georgia around his previous time at CMU. In 2002, he was part of a coaching staff that led the Bulldogs to a 13-1 record and 26-13 win over Florida State in the Sugar Bowl. The 2004 Georgia squad finished 10-2 and defeated Wisconsin in the Outback Bowl, while the 2005 team was 10-3 and played in the Sugar Bowl against West Virginia. Beckles was a graduate assistant working with the wide receivers during each of those seasons. He was a part of two SEC Championship teams (2002 & 2005) while on the staff at Georgia.

Beckles began his coaching career by working at four high schools in Florida and Georgia from 1994-98. He broke into the college ranks in 1999, coaching running backs at Nicholls State. Beckles spent two seasons there before moving to South Florida, where he worked with the receivers and running backs as a graduate assistant in 2001. The Bulls finished 8-3 in 2001, their first full season at the Division I-A level. Beckles earned a bachelor’s degree in social science education from Florida State in 1994 and a master’s degree in sport management from Georgia in 2005. He was a wide receiver on Florida State teams that won five consecutive bowl games, the program’s first Atlantic Coast Conference championship under head coach Bobby Bowden and a national title in 1993. He was part of a Seminoles recruiting class that included Heisman Trophy winner Charlie Ward as well as Terrell Buckley. In four seasons at Florida State he played in the Sugar, Fiesta, Orange and Cotton Bowls. @TroyAthletics

A 36-year coaching veteran, Wayne Bolt returned to Troy in 2013 following a career that has included stops at Auburn, Clemson, Iowa State and UAB. In his first season back at Troy, the Trojan defense dramatically increased its sack and tackle-for-loss totals. Troy finished second in the Sun Belt in 2013 with 24 sacks after recording just 13 in 2012; the Trojans’ TFL total increased from 50 to 66. Camren Hudson, Antonio Gillespie and Tyler Roberts earned All-Sun Belt honors during the 2013 season. The Trojans also returned two interceptions for a touchdown (Eli Canton & Hudson) marking the first time since 2007 a Troy team took two interceptions in for scores. Before his return, Bolt most recently served as the director of football relations at Auburn under Gene Chizik. He joined Chizik at Iowa State in 2007 where he coached the Cyclone linebackers in addition to serving as the defensive coordinator for two seasons. He then moved with Chizik to Auburn prior to the 2009 season where he was part of the Tigers’ 2010 BCS National Championship team. Bolt’s resume includes more than 20 former players who have gone on to play in the NFL including Troy’s own DeMarcus Ware and Osi Umenyiora. Bolt’s initial tenure with the Trojans ran from 1991 to 2002; he coached the Troy offensive line his first six seasons before taking over as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach in 1997. Bolt’s defenses dominated during Troy’s years in the Southland Conference and as a FBS Independent. His 2002 unit finished the year fourth in the nation in total defense (276.8) and 13th against the run (105.3). In Troy’s 67 games with Bolt as defensive coordinator, the Trojans allowed less than 110 yards rushing per game and just over 290 yards of total offense per contest. Under Bolt’s guidance, Troy dominated the Southland Conference each year from 1997-2000. During that time, his units either ranked first or second in the SLC in scoring defense, rushing defense and total defense. The only exception came in 2000 when the Trojans ranked third in total defense after allowing just 294.1 yards per game. Troy held opponents to just 14.3 points per game in 1997, 18.2 points per game in 1998 , 14.5 points per game in 2000 and 12.6 points per game in 2001. He coached two All-America players on the offensive line, Bob Hall (1994-95) and Kerry Jenkins (1996). Hall was the first FCS All-America selection in Troy history. Bolt’s offensive lines resulted in two Trojans running backs, Eddie Coleman (1992) and Arrid Gregory (1996), breaking the Troy single-season rushing record. In 1999, linebacker Anthony Rabb earned Southland Defensive Player of the Years honors and in 2001 all three of Bolt’s starting linebackers earned All-SLC honors. All told under Bolt, 11 players earned All-Southland honors during Troy’s five seasons in the league. In Bolt’s two seasons while Troy was an independent, Ware and Umenyiora were named to the All-FCS Independent Team. Bolt was an All-American offensive lineman at East Carolina where he played under the legendary Pat Dye. Bolt began his coaching career a year later as a graduate assistant at ECU and then followed Dye to Wyoming (1980) and later to Auburn where he served as the Tigers’ tight ends coach from 1981-85, where the Tigers played in the Sugar and Cotton Bowls among four bowl appearances and won a SEC title. Under head coach Danny Ford at Clemson, Bolt was a part of teams that won three Atlantic Coast Conference titles and played in four bowl games. Bolt served as the defensive coordinator at UAB from 2003 to 2005 and coached the Blazers to their only bowl appearance in school history, the 2004 Hawaii Bowl. Bolt is married to the former Linda Howard and their two babies Chloe and Zoe.

Randy Butler begins his seventh season as an assistant coach on the Troy football staff and has 35 years of collegiate coaching experience under his belt. Butler has continued Troy’s strong tradition of producing top-tier defensive ends that are now playing in the NFL. His latest product is former Trojan Jonathan Massaquoi, who was a fifth round draft pick by the Atlanta Falcons in the 2012 NFL Draft. During his time at Troy, Massaquoi was a two-time selection to the All-Sun Belt Team. In his two season as a starter, Massaquoi combined for 128 tackles, 31 tackles-for-loss, and 19.5 sacks. Butler shifted his focus from the defensive ends to the entire defensive line prior to the 2012 season. Defensive end Tony Davis earned All-Sun Belt honors his final two seasons at Troy, including second team distinction in 2012. Troy finished second in the Sun Belt with 26 sacks in 2013 and a pair of defensive linemen - Antonio Gillespie and Tyler Roberts - earned All-Sun Belt honors. In 2008 and 2009, Butler guided the development of two defensive ends who spent the 2010 season in the NFL – Cameron Sheffield and Brandon Lang. Lang left Troy with the third-most tackles for loss in school history with 38 and tenth most sacks with 23.5. Sheffield finished his career ranked eighth in Troy history with 28.5 tackles-for-loss. In 2010, Butler instructed two of the top defensive ends in the Sun Belt Conference, as each was honored at the conclusion of the season. The duo of Massaquoi and Mario Addison combined for 123 total tackles, while recorded 24 sacks and 36 tackles-for-loss. The duo wreaked havoc in opponents’ backfields all season, and even came up with seven quarterback hurries and four fumble recoveries throughout 2010. Butler came to Troy from Southern Miss, where he spent 17 of his 35 seasons as a college coach in various roles. During his time at Southern Miss, Butler spent seven seasons coaching tight ends and 10 years coaching defensive linemen. He also spent seven seasons as the assistant head coach, and three as the recruiting coordinator for the Golden Eagles. In his final three seasons at Southern Miss, Butler coached three-time All-Conference USA selection Shawn Nelson, who had the three best years ever by a tight end in school history. He registered 35 catches for 540 yards and five touchdowns as a freshman, 36 catches for 506 yards and three touchdowns as a sophomore and 33 catches for 455 yards and five touchdowns as a junior. He was named the New Orleans Bowl Most Valuable Player in 2005, posting six catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns. Butler also coached the tight end position at Southern Miss during the 1993 and 1994 seasons. In 1994, he coached former Golden Eagle standout Terry Hardy, who was later drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in the fifth round and played several years in the National Football League. In his nine years on the defensive side of the ball, Butler was an integral part of helping continue the tradition of Southern Miss defense. Butler’s development of defensive lines during his tenure at Southern Miss helped further the long-time defensive tradition at the school. Butler spent the 2004 season retooling the defensive line after losing two standouts. The Golden Eagles finished 7-5 overall and defeated North Texas in the New Orleans Bowl. That year, the defense finished second in Conference USA in scoring defense and third in total defense. He coached another defensive line in 2003 that helped the Golden Eagles win the Conference USA championship and a third trip to the Liberty Bowl. The defense finished 14th in the nation in scoring defense, 13th in pass efficiency defense and 23rd in total defense that season in winning the conference championship. Butler graduated from Southern Miss in 1979 with his Bachelor’s Degree, and received his Master’s Degree in 1981. He was inducted into the Southern Miss Athletics Hall of Fame prior to the 1999 spring game. Butler entered the Wiregrass Athletic Hall of Fame in July 2008. Butler is married to the former Angela Smith, who is also a Southern Miss graduate. The couple has two children, Anna Leigh and Chelsea. The couple also has one granddaughter, Ellie.

Jim Dye is in his second season of his second stint with the Troy football program. Dye, a 30-year coaching veteran, will coach the Trojan offensive line. In his first season back, the Troy offensive line proved to be one of the best in the country led by All-Sun Belt tackle Terrence Jones and All-Sun Belt center Evan McKissack. The 2013 Troy offensive line paved the way for Jordan Chunn to earn Freshman All-America honors after he rushed for 14 touchdowns. The Trojans led the Sun Belt Conference in total offense (463.3), passing offense (322.3) and scoring offense (34.1). Additionally, Troy’s offensive line finished second in the Sun Belt and 35th nationally with only 19 sacks allowed; Troy led the league by allowing a sack once every 25.4 pass attempts. Dye returned to the Troy staff in 2012 following 10 successful years as an offensive coordinator at three Georgia high schools. He spent the last seven years as the offensive coordinator at Burke County High School in Waynesboro, Ga. Burke County won the 2011 Georgia AAA State Championship with a combined 91 points in the semifinal and championship game; it was the first state title in school history. Dye spent the 2003 and 2004 seasons as the offensive coordinator at Rutland High School in Macon, Ga., and the 2005 season as the offensive coordinator at Mary Persons High School in Forsyth, Ga. Dye spent 10 seasons on Blakeney’s staff during his initial stint with the Trojans. The nephew of former Auburn head coach Pat Dye, Jim coached the Troy linebackers from 1993-96, the offensive line and tight ends from 1997-00 and the tight ends in 2001-02. In his four seasons as the offensive line coach, his units paved the way for one of the nation’s top rushing attacks. In 1998, Cleve Roberts earned All-America honors and was named I-AA Lineman of the Year by the Don Hansen’s Weekly Football Gazette. Michael Moore earned All-America honors in 1999 and was drafted in the fourth round by the Washington Redskins in 2000. The 1997 line opened running lanes for a conference-leading 23 rushing touchdowns and helped the offense average 193.3 yards per game on the ground. The 1999 squad rushed for 195.4 yards per game and 24 touchdowns. In 2000, four of the Trojans starting offensive lineman earned All-Southland Conference honors and Charles Thomas signed as a free agent with the Carolina Panthers. During his first tenure with the Trojans, Dye coached 16 All-Southland performers between the linebackers and offensive line. Prior to his arrive at Troy, Dye served as the offensive line coach at East Tennessee State in 1992 after spending the previous two seasons in the same capacity at Valdosta State. Dye began his coaching career as a student assistant at Georgia Southern for two seasons before moving on to Auburn as a graduate assistant from 1986-87. Dye spent two seasons as the head coach at Hepzibah (Ga.) High School before joining the Valdosta State staff. A native of Augusta, Ga., Dye was an offensive lineman for two seasons under legendary head coach Erk Russell at Georgia Southern. Dye has two sons, Jay and Jackson. Jay is a walk-on offensive lineman for the Trojans.

The Trojans have led the Sun Belt Conference in passing yards in four of the last five seasons (three-of-four under Edenfield) and have ranked eighth, 13th, 16th and 11th nationally in Edenfield’s four years calling the plays. Edenfield’s offenses have averaged 449.0 yards, 310.2 passing yards and 30.4 points per game over his four years as the offensive coordinator. The Trojans finished 11th nationally in 2012 after averaging a school record 498.8 yards per contest. Troy finished eighth in the NCAA averaging 331.5 passing yards per game and the offensive line was 25th with just 1.25 sacks allowed per game. The 2012 Trojans shredded a pair of SEC defenses as Edenfield’s unit torched Tennessee for 721 yards and Mississippi State for 572 yards. It was the most yards ever allowed by a Tennessee team in the history of the school and the second most allowed by a Dan Mullen team at Mississippi State. Troy’s tally at Tennessee was the most allowed by an SEC team in 2012 and the Mississippi State total was the sixth most allowed. During his time as the offensive coordinator, Troy players have set single-season school records in passing attempts (twice), passing completions, completion percentage, receptions and receptions/game. Trojan players have also posted top three single-season totals in passing yards, passing touchdowns, passing yards per game, receiving yards, total offense and allpurpose yards. Quarterback Corey Robinson set the NCAA record for completion percentage (30 att.) with a 30-for-32 game against UAB in 2013 and became the fifth player in NCAA history to throw for over 3,000 yards and accumulate 3,000 yards of total offense in four different seasons. Robinson left Troy with 11 Troy and Sun Belt Conference records, while wide receiver Eric Thomas left campus as the Sun Belt’s all-time leader with 29 career touchdown receptions. In 2010, Edenfield’s first as offensive coordinator, the Trojans averaged 453.5 yards per game in total offense. Not only did they put up impressive yardage numbers, but the Trojans scored an average of 34.1 points per game; scoring 30 or more points 10 times - including four game of 40+ points. Corey Robinson was named Freshman of the Year as he averaged 286.6 yards passing per game in Edenfield’s offense. In 2011, Troy continued its dominance through the air, as the Trojans finished second in the Sun Belt with 291.3 passing yards per game. Robinson led the league in passing, as the signal caller passed for 3,411 yards and 21 touchdowns. Under Edenfield in 2009, Jerrel Jernigan became the fourth receiver in Troy history to record more than 1,000 yards in a season. He spent the six previous seasons as the offensive coordinator at North Alabama, where he helped direct one of the most productive offenses in NCAA Division II. The Lions broke scores of school records and ranked among the offensive leaders in both the Gulf South Conference and Division II annually. Edenfield helped lead UNA to two conference championships and four NCAA playoff berths in his six years at the school - including an overall 54-19 record. He was one of just two Lion assistants who had been on Mark Hudspeth’s staff every season since he

In 2007, UNA went 10-2 and reached the quarterfinals of the Division II playoffs for the fourth time in the last five years. With a number six national ranking in the final Division II poll, UNA also ranked in the final Top 10 poll for Division II for the fourth time since 2003. North Alabama quarterback A.J. Milwee was a national finalist for the Harlon Hill Trophy as the Division II Player of the Year. In 2006, North Alabama went 11-1, won the Gulf South Conference championship and advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division II playoffs. In 2005, Edenfield directed a UNA offense that paved the way to an 11-3 record. The Lions broke 28 offensive records and advanced to the semifinals of the NCAA Division II playoffs. From that team, six Lions were named NCAA Division II All-Americans - including Harlon Hill Trophy finalist Anthony Merritt. In 2003, Edenfield guided the Lions to a 13-1 record, a Gulf South Conference championship and a semifinal berth. Along the way, UNA broke 11 school team records and 20 individual records, while producing the Harlon Hill Trophy winner in quarterback Will Hall. Edenfield is a native of Clinton, La. He and his wife Pamela have a son K.D. and daughters Caitlin, Christina and Kiley. K.D. is a member of the Troy football team.

Reagan previously served on the staff of the Trojans as a graduate assistant in 2008 and 2009 when Brown was the offensive coordinator. Robinson isn’t the only record-setting quarterback that Reagan has tutored as he had a hand in the development of Levi Brown. Reagan has worked with two record-setting quarterbacks during his tenure at Troy in Levi Brown and Corey Robinson. Brown is Troy’s single-season record holder for passing yards, completions and passing yards per game. The Trojans have averaged 315.0 passing yards per game during his three seasons as the quarterback coach. In 2012, Troy threw for over 400 yards four times including a 528-yard outburst against Louisiana-Lafayette and 496-yard performance at Tennessee. Reagan mentored Deon Anthony into an All-Sun Belt performer (all-purpose) in 2012 as Troy’s backup quarterback.

Meadowview Christian (‘87) ALMA MATER:.............................................Auburn (‘92) ................................................................B.S. Social Science

Assistant head coach Shayne Wasden begins his 11th season on the Troy staff. Wasden coaches Troy’s outside receivers, special teams and coordinates the highly successful walk-on program. Wasden has coached a fair share of players, both at receiver and on special teams, who have made their marks on the Troy record book. Eric Thomas left Troy in 2013 as the Sun Belt Conference’s career leader with 29 touchdown receptions. In 2012, Chip Reeves became just the fifth receiver in Troy history to top the 1,000-yard mark as he caught 65 passes for 1,050 yards -- the third most in a season in Troy history. Reeves finished fourth in the NCAA in catches of over 30 and 50 yards.

MASTER’S DEGREE:........................................ Troy (‘98) .................................. M.S. in Education Administration

Bryan Holmes turned into a big-play threat under Wasden’s guidance in 2013 as he finished third nationally with five catches of over 50 yards and led the Sun Belt in 50-yard and 40-yard grabs.

PLAYING CAREER:.......................... Auburn (1987-90) Receiver who was named to the Knoxville NewsSentinel’s Freshman All-SEC Team in 1988.

Troy’s special teams have produced many outstanding players during Wasden’s tenure as special teams coordinator. Troy’s all-time leading punter, Will Scott, Troy’s all-time leader in field goals, Greg Whibbs, and Troy’s all-time leader in punt returns, Leodis McKelvin, are among those who have excelled under Wasden.

In 2012, Scott was transformed from a place kicker into one of the nation’s top dual-threat kickers. He finished the year 17-of-21 on field goals, including a school record 12 straight successful attempts to close out the season. Scott booted a game-winning 42-yard field goal in the final seconds against FIU and set a new Troy record with a 52-yard make at Florida Atlantic. Scott also averaged 41.0 yards per punt with just two touchbacks; Troy led the Sun Belt and finished 36th in the NCAA in net punting. That year the Trojans also executed the first fake field goal by a Troy team since 1991 (Larry Blakeney’s first season); it was successful for a touchdown. Scott finished his career as Troy’s all-time leader with a 42.81 career punting average, just ahead of another Wasden protegee Thomas Olmstead (41.5). Scott was a semifinalist for the Ray Guy Award in 2013 and was one of just three players on the Ray Guy and Groza Award Watch Lists that season. Scott finished his career second in Troy history with a 77.8 field goal percentage -- a total which is first among players with at least 20 attempts. Wasden has also two Sun Belt Conference honorable mention selections in placekicker Michael Taylor and punter Will Goggans. He also coached Jerrel Jernigan, who was named first team as an all-purpose player and second team as a return specialist by the league’s head coaches and media. Jernigan was also one of only three players in the country to return both a punt and a kickoff for a touchdown during the 2011 season. Wasden has achieved many personal goals while at Troy. One of his accomplishments was having at least one special team unit rank in the top 25 nationally in seven of the last eight seasons. Since Wasden’s arrival at Troy, the Trojans have claimed five Sun Belt Conference titles, appeared in five bowl games and have emerged as one of the most productive and exciting offensive teams in college football.

Before joining the collegiate coaching ranks, Wasden served as a high school head coach for 11 seasons. His career started at Georgiana High School and included stops at Opp and Eufaula High Schools. In his 11 seasons as a high school head coach, Wasden’s teams posted a record of 91 wins and 34 losses and advanced to the postseason playoffs 10 times. In his final year at Eufaula, his team finished 11-1 and was ranked number one in the state in Class 5A to end the regular season. When Wasden joined the Trojans coaching staff in 2004, he came as a familiar face to Trojans head coach Larry Blakeney who, as an assistant coach at Auburn University, coached Wasden. Wasden played wide receiver at Auburn from 1987-90, earning three letters and playing in three bowl games for the Tigers. While at Auburn, Wasden earned his undergraduate degree in secondary education in 1990. He later earned his master’s in education administration from Troy University in 1998. Coaching comes naturally to the Wasden family. Shayne’s father, Bobby Wasden, coached high school football for more than 35 years. His brother Tommy, a former Trojan, also coaches at the high school level. Wasden and his wife, the former Patrice Moseley, have two daughters, Mary Beth and Anna Shay.

In two short years as Troy University’s athletic director, John Hartwell has already laid the groundwork for the future of Troy Athletics.

Troy has seen a significant enhancement in fund raising and external relations during Hartwell’s time as Athletic Director. He completely overhauled Troy’s External Affairs division of the Athletics Department to increase revenues and enhance the fan and game day experience. Included in this makeover was the creation of a new external model, which included the addition of a Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Affairs; bringing corporate sponsorships in house with a partnership with Rockbridge Sports Group; and the development of the Troy Affinity Program to further engage Troy students in athletics.

“At the end of the day, our vision is a constant commitment to a maximum effort for three things,” Hartwell said at his introductory press conference. “Academic excellence, positive social development and winning championships.”

Another large piece to the external puzzle was the marketing and brand awareness campaign launched in the summer of 2013. It’s T Time and Trojan Territory were established as Troy’s new and highly successful slogans.

In his brief time at Troy, Hartwell, 49, has spearheaded several significant upgrades to Troy’s athletic facilities.

Hartwell’s strong business background proved valuable as he negotiated a new footwear and apparel deal with Adidas that further benefits all of Troy’s athletic teams.

Within the past year, the Troy golf program began playing on a new six-hole, on-campus practice facility that will also include a state-of-the-art clubhouse. With the benefit of practicing at the new facility, the women’s golf team won the Sun Belt Conference championship and advanced to its first NCAA Regional in 2014. The Troy Softball Complex underwent a $3 million renovation prior to the 2014 season. Included in the renovation was the construction of the Dodds Center, a state-of-the-art hitting facility. The 8,000 square-foot facility houses a player locker room, player lounge, athletic training room and hitting and pitching areas. On Troy’s caravan around the Southeast, Trojan Tour, Hartwell announced a $2.1 million improvement to Veterans Memorial Stadium with the addition of a 1,250 square-foot video board, 200 yards of ribbon boards and a state-of-the-art sound system to be installed prior to the 2014 season. Hartwell also secured the funding for lights to be installed at the Troy Soccer & Track Complex prior to the 2014-15 season. In 2013, alongside football head coach Larry Blakeney and former Trojan Lawrence Tynes, Hartwell unveiled to the Trojan Nation “The Future of Troy Athletics” with the breathtaking North End Zone Project for Veterans Memorial Stadium. The building, which is estimated to cost between $25-28 million, will catapult Troy to the forefront of the arms race in college football. Hartwell’s tenure at Troy has seen a record number of studentathletes earn a 3.0 grade-point-average, an upward trend in APR scores and additional staff positions in Troy’s academic support department. Troy’s success in the classroom has been substantial, as studentathletes have been named to three Capital One Academic All-America Teams over the past two years. In his first year as athletic director, Troy’s baseball team won the Sun Belt Conference title and advanced to the final of the Tallahassee Regional after defeating Alabama twice. Hartwell has hired three of the brightest young minds in the men’s basketball, softball and women’s soccer coaching circles. Hartwell selected Phil Cunningham to guide the men’s basketball program following the retirement of legendary head coach Don Maestri; he tabbed Beth Mullins as Troy’s new

Marquee games are littered across Troy’s football schedule for the near future as Hartwell has secured home-and-home contracts with Duke, North Carolina State and Boise State. Additionally, Hartwell negotiated the highest payout for a road game in Troy history with contests at Wisconsin and Nebraska. The scheduling of big name schools to come to Troy doesn’t stop at just at football, as Hartwell helped bring Ole Miss to Trojan Arena to open the 2014-15 men’s basketball season.

Hartwell also oversaw the Rebels’ business office, ticket office, equipment room, merchandise sales, concessions and football scheduling. Hartwell scheduled several marquee football games for the Rebels including a home-and-home series with Texas, which began in 2012. Hartwell managed the growth of the Ole Miss athletic budget from $26 million in the 2003 fiscal year to over $47 million in the 2012 fiscal year. He also chaired the search to hire men’s basketball head coach Andy Kennedy in 2006. He was heavily involved in negotiations that increased revenues with contracts for apparel and footwear (Nike), merchandise sales (Sports Avenue/LIDS), concessions (Centerplate), wireless provider (C Spire) and video boards (Daktronics). He served on the Southeastern Conference Ticket Committee and was a leader of the annual SEC Chief Financial Officers Forum. A 1987 graduate of The Citadel, Hartwell spent four-plus years as a certified public accountant with Ernst & Young before returning to his alma mater to serve as the director of internal audit in 1991. From 1994 to 1997 he was in private business as the chief financial officer for a $36 million beverage distributor on the South Carolina coast. Hartwell’s direct experience in athletics administration began as the assistant athletic director for business at Georgia State in 1997. He was promoted to associate athletic director for internal affairs in 1999, and his responsibilities expanded to include sport supervision for baseball, men’s & women’s golf, men’s & women’s track & field and cross country. He also had oversight over the Panthers’ athletic facilities and game management in addition to his previous responsibilities of all financial aspects of the department. While at Georgia State, Hartwell earned a master’s degree in sports administration. Athletics has always been a big part of Hartwell’s life, starting in high school where he was an all-state basketball selection at UMS-Wright in Mobile, Ala. The 6-foot-7 forward played alongside current North Carolina State head coach Mark Gottfried in high school. Hartwell went on to play collegiately at The Citadel, where he was a three-year starter, a four-year letterman and captain of the team as a senior in 1987. Current Tulane head coach Ed Conroy was a collegiate teammate of Hartwell’s. Hartwell is married to Dr. Heather Seale Hartwell, and they have two daughters Lauren (5) and Madison (2). Hartwell also has a 22-year old son, Hunter, who is a recent graduate of Vanderbilt University.

Hartwell’s influence is felt outside the walls of Troy and the Sun Belt Conference as he serves on the NCAA Division I Basketball I s s u e s Co m m i t te e a n d t h e Division I-A Board of Trustees Executive Committee as the Sun Belt Conference representative. He was also an instructor at the D1-A Institute for aspiring athletic directors in 2013 and 2014. Hartwell came to Troy following nine years at the University of Mississippi where he was the s e n i o r e xe c u t i ve a s s o c i ate athletics director, serving as the number two administrator in athletics. Hartwell served as the treasurer and chief operating officer of the University of Mississippi Athletic Association Foundation, a 501 (c) (3) organization that generates over $17 million annually for the Ole Miss Athletics Department through priority seating and major gifts. He was responsible for the dayto-day administrative oversight of the football, men’s basketball and baseball programs, along with sport oversight of the softball and men’s and women’s track & field and cross country programs.

Notable

• Corey Robinson set a NCAA record for completion percentage in a game with a minimum of 30 completions. The previous record was Steve Sarkisian of BYU, who was 31-of-34 (91.2 %) against Fresno State in 1995. • Troy opened up the game with a 52-yard reception by Anthony from Robinson. The reception would have been the seventh longest play of the season last year. • With his 6-yard completion to B.J. Chitty in the third quarter, Robinson set the Sun Belt record for career completions with 924. • Robinson became the all-time leader in Sun Belt Conference history in passing yards with his first completion, passing Ryan Aplin (Arkansas State). He now has 10,577 passing yards in his career. • Eric Thomas has now caught at least one pass in 26 consecutive games; he is now tied with Jerrel Jernigan for fourth in Troy history with 18 touchdown receptions. • Jordan Chunn scored his first career touchdown with an 11yard rush in the fourth quarter. • Troy held UAB scoreless in the fourth quarter. Troy accomplished the same feat three times last season, all were Trojan wins. • 18 players made their Trojan debut

Troy Wins Third Straight over UAB in Overtime Thriller TROY, Ala. – Corey Robinson broke an 18year old NCAA record and Will Scott booted a 30-yard field goal in overtime as Troy rallied for a dramatic 34-31 victory over UAB on Saturday night in the season opener for both schools at Veterans Memorial Stadium; the victory was Troy's third straight in the series. The win marked Troy's first victory in an overtime game since joining the Football Bowl Subdivision in 2001. Robinson completed 30-of-32 passes for 319 yards and a 93.8 completion percentage, which broke Steve Sarkisian's record (minimum of 30 completions) of 91.2 percent set in 1995. Troy won the overtime coin toss and held UAB on three straight plays to open the extra session. The Blazers muffed the hold on the field goal attempt and came away with no points. Deon Anthony, who finished with 119 all-purpose yards, rushed for 16 yards on Troy's first play of overtime and Scott connected on his second career game-winner three plays later. The overtime victory capped a thrilling fourth-quarter comeback by the Trojans, who entered the final quarter trailing 31-14. True freshman running back Jordan Chunn started the charge with an 11-yard touchdown run with just over 11 minutes to play in the game. Chunn led the Trojans (1-0) with 65 yards on 10 carries. Chunn opened Troy's game-tying drive with a 19-yard run up the middle. Later in the drive facing a fourth-and-three, Robinson threw a 31-yard strike to Chandler Worthy to set up the Trojans with a first-and-goal at the UAB 2-yard line. After a UAB penalty moved the ball to the 1-yard line, Anthony punched it in from there to tie the game with 3:17 to play. Robinson's record-setting performance did not end with the NCAA completion percentage mark. The senior also set the Sun Belt Conference career records for passing yards (10,577) and completions (924). Robinson completed 20 straight passes at one point in the game to tie Sim Byrd's school mark. Troy opened the game with an impressive seven-play, 82-yard drive to jump out to a 7-0 lead. Anthony took a screen pass from Robinson 52 yards on the first play of the game and Brandon Burks capped the drive with a 10-yard run for his first career touchdown.

REVIEW

Troy Cruises Past Savannah State TROY, Ala. - Troy quarterbacks threw six touchdown passes and the defense earned six sacks as the Trojans defeated Savannah State 66-3 at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Corey Robinson threw for four scores, including three to Eric Thomas. It was the third four-touchdown performance of Robinson’s career. The six touchdown passes by Troy quarterbacks tied a school singlegame record set in 1967 and 1968. Troy’s defense looked solid throughout as the unit allowed just 147 total yards and held Savannah State (0-2) to 2-for-12 on third downs. “This was a game in which we needed to perform well. I thought we prepared well and it felt like it was a little bit of a strain, but we had a pretty clean operation,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “We threw the ball pretty well. We didn’t have a turnover and we forced two ourselves. I’m proud of these guys for doing what they were supposed to do.” With the win, the Trojans open the season 2-0 for the first time since 2008. Robinson continued to be incredibly efficient through the air completing 17 of 19 passes for 190 yards. The senior gunslinger is now 47 of 51 (92.2 percent) on the season. Troy would rack up 531 yards of total offense but was balanced with 280 yards through the air and 251 on the ground. Eight different Trojans would get carries as freshman Jordan Chunn led the way with nine carries for 48 yards and a touchdown. Troy jumped out to a 17-0 advantage in the first quarter courtesy of a pair of Robinson to Thomas touchdown connections and a 37-yard field goal from Will Scott. A 50-yard strike from Robinson to Thomas on the third play of the second half would open Troy’s lead to 31-3. The Trojans would score three more times in the third quarter to pull away. Eli Canton would cap the scoring with a 78-yard interception return with 10:02 left in the final quarter. “We are going to play fast if we can, but of course a fast three-and-out is not good,” Blakeney said. “We like to play fast because we feel like it gives us an advantage over the defense. It is good to be able to see us play fast and get some scores.” Troy’s 66 points were the most since beating Charleston Southern 66-7 in 1995 and it was the first time the Trojans scored 60 or more points in a game since thumping Alcorn State 65-0 in 2009.

Trojans Fall at Arkansas State in SBC Opener JONESBORO, Ark. – Four turnovers negated 614 yards of offense as Troy fell, 4134, to Arkansas State in both team’s Sun Belt Conference opener. The Trojans (2-1, 0-1 Sun Belt) looked posed to tie the game in the final moments, but Corey Robinson’s third-down pass was intercepted at the Arkansas State 6 yard line to ice the game for the Red Wolves. Robinson, who was 15-of-22 for 211 yards in the first half, finished 30-for-51 for 371 yards and two touchdowns for Troy. The senior would also be picked off three times in the game. Arkansas State (2-1, 1-0) scored the first 13 points of the game, failing to covert a two-point conversion attempt after the second score. Troy answered with 4:38 left in the opening quarter as Jordan Chunn found the end zone on a 1-yard run to cap a six-play, 75-yard drive. The score was set up by a 54-yard pass and catch from Robinson to Eric Thomas. The Red Wolves would use a 75-yard drive of their own to add another score and take a 20-7 lead at the end of the first quarter. It would be the final scoring opportunity of the first half for Arkansas State however as the Trojans defense tightened and forced punts on the final four drives heading into halftime. Deon Anthony scored on the second play of the second quarter to pull Troy to within six. The momentum shifted completely when Robinson found Thomas for a 3-yard score to give the Trojans a 21-20 lead with six seconds remaining in the half. The score, Thomas’ 22nd of his career, tied Kerry Wright for the most touchdown receptions in Sun Belt Conference history. On the same play, Robinson moved into a tie for second on the Sun Belt list for TD passes, he would take sole possession of second with a 58-yard touchdown pass to Bryan Holmes in the third quarter. Arkansas State added a pair of scores in the third quarter to take a 34-28 lead into the final period. After forcing two Red Wolves to punt, Troy converted two third downs before Anthony found Chandler Worthy for a 53-yard touchdown. Will Scott’s extra point was wide, however, and the game remained tied with 12:18 to play. Fredi Knighten would find the end zone for the Red Wolves with 3:56 left to give ASU the lead for good. Anthony led the Trojans on the ground with 87 yards on 16 carries. Thomas finished with 125 yards on six catches while Holmes also went over 100-yards receiving with 117 on six catches.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – Mississippi State scored 52 unanswered points en route to a 62-7 win over Troy at Davis Wade Stadium on Saturday. The Trojans turned the ball over on its first two possessions and Mississippi State capitalized with 10 points. On 3rd-and-10, Corey Robinson was intercepted by Jamerson Love who returned it 70 yards for the Bulldogs first score. After MSU recovered a fumble on the ensuing drive, the Bulldogs drove 56 yards before settling for a field goal to take a 10-0 lead. “In SEC towns you find SEC teams, coaches and players, that’s what we found today. We’ve got to find out who we are. We knew it would be tough to match up against them and we certainly struggled with that today,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “We’ve got to get back to work and fix the things that got us beat and hope they don’t beat us again.” The Trojans responded with a 9-play, 65-yard drive capped by a 5-yard touchdown pass from Robinson to Eric Thomas. With his 23rd score, Thomas is one shy of tying the Sun Belt Conference record for career touchdown receptions held by Florida International’s T.Y. Hilton (24). The Bulldogs racked up 551 total yards of offense including 235 on the ground. Troy was held to just 186 of total offense. Robinson finished 15-for-25 passing for 105 yards. Brandon Burks led Troy in rushing with 43 yards on eight carries. Troy’s seven points were the fewest produced by the Trojans since scoring just six against Florida in 2009. Hampered by penalties throughout the contest, the Trojans were flagged seven times for 80 yards. “We’ve got to put this one behind us and look ahead. We’ve certainly got a tough game coming up in Duke and we’ve got a lot of work to do before then,” Blakeney said. “I think we can get to where we want to be but it’s not going to be without hard work.”

Trojans Fall to Duke in Shootout DURHAM, N.C. – Troy fell just short of knocking off Duke, falling 38-31 at Wallace Wade Stadium. Corey Robinson threw for 354 yards and two touchdowns on 35 of 45 passing. Troy (2-3, 0-1 Sun Belt) had one final shot to tie the game as the offense took the field at its own 22 with 31 seconds remaining. Robinson completed a pass to Chris Williams for 17 yards but his final heave towards the end zone was intercepted as time expired. “I thought we did some good things offensively and made some plays defensively to give us a shot to score,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “They [Duke] are a machine offensively and did a good job of moving the football.” Troy opened the scoring on its second drive with a 5-yard run by Jordan Chunn with 6:46 remaining in the opening quarter. The touchdown was set up by a pair of Robinson passes, one to Bryan Holmes for 14 yards and the other a 24-yard completion to Eric Thomas. After Duke (3-2, 0-2 ACC) scored three times to take a 21-7 lead, Thomas hauled in a 12-yard pass from Robinson in the back left corner of the end zone to pull the Trojans to within seven, 21-14. With his 24th score, Thomas tied the Sun Belt Conference career record for touchdown receptions. The Blue Devils, behind junior quarterback Brandon Connette, would again answer this time on a 9-yard pass to Jela Duncan. Connette would throw for 324 yards and three touchdowns. Duke and Troy battled tooth and nail offensively with the Blue Devils outgaining the Trojans 514-512. Holmes led the Trojans in receiving with 82 yards on seven receptions. Thomas finished with 77 yards on nine catches. Chunn scored his second touchdown of the game with 2:52 left tin the first half to bring the Trojans to within a touchdown, 28-21. Just 2:45 into the second half, Wilson Van Hooser hauled in a Robinson pass and raced 40 yards for a touchdown to tie the game 28-28. It was Van Hooser’s first career touchdown catch as a Trojan. It didn’t take long for the Blue Devils to score however as quarterback Brandon Connette converted three 3rd-down passing plays. Connette finished off the 10-play drive with a 4-yard rushing score to help Duke retake the lead.

REVIEW

Fantastic Finish – Troy Edges South Alabama in Final Seconds TROY, Ala. – Eric Thomas hauled in a 20yard touchdown pass from Corey Robinson and Will Scott knocked through the extra point with seven seconds left to lift Troy to a 34-33 Homecoming victory over South Alabama at Veterans Memorial Stadium. It appeared Troy’s Jeremy Spikner had put a cap on the game with 48 seconds left when he made a break on Ross Metheny’s pass down the Jaguars’ sideline. The ball slipped through Spikner’s hands and fell squarely into the grasp of receiver Jereme Jones, who raced 65-yards for the score to give South Alabama a 33-27 lead. The score capped a drive that started at the Jaguars own 1-yard line. On the third play of the second quarter, quarterback Deon Anthony found Thomas streaking down the Trojans sideline and connected for a 62-yard touchdown. With his 25th career touchdown reception, Thomas passed FIU’s T.Y. Hilton to reset the league’s all-time benchmark. It was also the seventh consecutive game that Thomas has caught a touchdown pass, which is tied for the longest active streak in the nation. Thomas finished the game with 129 yards on five receptions and a pair of scores. Robinson would pass for 210 yards on 20 of 26 passing with two touchdowns. Anthony was 4-for-8 for 95 yards and threw two touchdowns. The Trojans (3-3, 1-1 Sun Belt) converted a pair of third downs on the game’s opening drive en route to a 12-play, 73-yard march to the end zone capped by an 8-yard scoring strike from Anthony to Bryan Holmes. South Alabama (2-3, 1-1) responded with a 12-play drive of its own on its ensuing possession, this one spanning 75 yards and ending with a 5-yard touchdown run by Cris Dinham to tie the score at 7-7. After Thomas’ record-breaking score, Will Scott added a 20-yard field goal to give the Trojans a 17-7 advantage heading into halftime. Troy’s offense came out swinging in the second half. Running back Brandon Burks ripped off 13 yards on the second play of the drive. Two plays later, Robinson hit Thomas for 38 yards down to the South Alabama 5 yard line. A false start penalty set the Trojans back five yards but Robinson connected with Holmes for the 10-yard score to put Troy up 24-7 with 12:23 left in the third quarter. Before the celebration had ended on the Troy sideline, South Alabama was knocking on the door. Jaguars quarterback Brandon Bridge hooked up with Wes Saxton for a 38yard gain to the Troy 29. Three plays later, Jay Jones found the end zone on a 10-yard run. Troy’s Chris Davis blocked the extra point attempt holding the score at 24-13. The Trojans defense came up with a huge stop at the 13:29 mark of the fourth quarter. With South Alabama facing fourth-and-short from the Troy 5 yard line, Camren Hudson and Brandon Timmons held back the Jaguars attempt to thwart the scoring effort.

Troy Pulls Out Late Win Over Georgia State ATLANTA – Chris Williams hauled in a 54-yard touchdown pass from Corey Robinson with 3:17 left in the game to lift Troy to a 35-28 win over Georgia State at the Georgia Dome. Williams caught four passes for a team-high 152 yards. The touchdown was the first of his career. The touchdown pass was the 76th of Robinson’s career, which ties him with Rusty Smith for the most in Sun Belt Conference history. “I was prepared mentally. There are those plays that you know you have a chance to make something happen when it’s called, we had one of those plays today,” Williams said. “I knew we would have a chance to win the game in the end; I was just hoping to make a play.” Sophomore running back Brandon Burks rushed for 113 yards on 23 carries. Freshman Jordan Chunn carried the ball 22 times for 91 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Burks has now topped the 100-yard mark in back-to-back games marking the first Trojan to do so since DuJuan Harris in 2008. Eric Thomas helped the Trojans take control with 8:55 left in the opening quarter when took a shovel pass and eluded several defenders to gain 37 yards. Two plays later, Robinson found Thomas in the end zone for a 26-yard touchdown. It was the eighth consecutive game Thomas has caught a touchdown pass, the longest active streak in the country. He is now tied for fifth in the Troy record books for touchdown receptions in a season with 10. Robinson would finish the game 21-for-37 passing for 350 yards and three touchdowns. Thomas caught six passes for 113 yards to top the century mark in receiving yards for the sixth time in his career and in back-to-back games for the first time in his career. Georgia State (0-6, 0-1 Sun Belt) responded on the ensuing drive with a 9-play, 75-yard drive that was capped by a 7-yard scoring pass from quarterback Ronnie Bell to Kelton Hill. After the Trojans (4-3, 2-1) scored on a 4-yard pass from Robinson to Bryan Holmes to regain the lead, the Panthers returned the kickoff 65 yards to put themselves in prime position to score. Consecutive sacks by Troy defensive tackle Antonio Gillespie helped kill the drive and hand the ball back to the Trojans offense. Burks fumbled as Troy opened the third quarter. Georgia State capitalized to tie the game at 14-all by marching 43 yards in eight plays to score on an 8-yard pass from Bell to Albert Wilson. After blocking a Troy punt at the 7:15 mark, the Panthers scored on their first play, a 31-yard pass from Bell to Robert Davis. Bell would finish with four passing touchdowns on the day to tie a school record.

Defensive Stand Helps Troy Top WKU BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – It didn’t come as a surprise when Western Kentucky turned to the nation’s top rusher with the game hanging in the balance. In dramatic fashion, Troy’s defense stopped Antonio Andrews to preserve a 32-26 win at Houchens-Smith Stadium on Saturday. On fourth-and-short, Camren Hudson halted Andrews short of the first down marker deep in Troy territory with 1:33 left in the game. Andrews ran for 144 yards on 28 carries in the game and leads the nation in rushing. “That was a huge play by our defense. (Andrews) is a great back and he had a good game against us. I was proud of the way our players responded in the second half,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “I told the guys at halftime that nothing was going to magically happen, we had to go out there and make plays and cover our assignments. I think they did a better job of that in the second half than in the first.” With Troy trailing early in the fourth quarter, freshman Jordan Chunn scored his second touchdown of the game on a 3-yard run. Eric Thomas completed his first career pass on the successful two-point conversion to B.J. Chitty to give the Trojans the lead for good. Chunn, who has eight scores on the season, has rushed for multiple touchdowns in three of the last four games. Corey Robinson was 20-for-32 passing for 306 yards and a touchdown. It was the 23rd career 300-yard passing game of Robinson’s career. The senior also moved into 17th in NCAA history in passing yards (12,453), 13th in completions (1,082) and 12th in passing attempts (1,669). The Trojans’ offense was held to just 26 offensive plays while Western Kentucky chewed up 20:25 of the clock compared to only 9:35 for Troy in the first half. Entering the game, Troy’s defense had recovered just one fumble despite forcing 16. That statistic took a positive turn on Saturday as Tyler Roberts forced the ball loose on a sack of WKU quarterback Brandon Doughty with 4:06 left in the first quarter and returned it 16 yards. It was the first fumble recovery of Roberts career. Hudson would later recover a fumble on a botched handoff from Doughty. The teams exchanged field goals in the first quarter with Will Scott making a 41-yarder to tie the game with 6:11 left in the opening quarter. Chunn would score five minutes later on a 1-yard plunge to give the Trojans a 10-3 lead. The second quarter was all Western Kentucky (4-4, 1-3 Sun Belt) as the Hilltoppers’ offense trudged down field and score 17 unanswered points including two field goals from Garrett Schwettman, who made four field goals in the game. Troy (5-3, 3-1) came out swinging in the second half with Robinson completing his first two passes including a 15-yard strike to Chris Williams to put the Trojans in WKU territory. The drive would be halted however when Robinson’s deep strike to Eric Thomas was intercepted. Three plays Hudson’s fumble recovery handed the ball back to the Trojan offense, Robinson found Chris Williams behind the Hilltopper secondary for a 40-yard touchdown strike. The score gave Robinson sole possession of the Sun Belt Conference record for career touchdown passes with 77. The play was also the seventh touchdown pass of over 40 yards this season. Deon Anthony gave the Trojans a temporary 24-23 lead with a 9-yard touchdown run with 4:22 left in the third quarter. Thomas would catch five passes for 74 yards but had his 8-game streak with a touchdown reception snapped. Chris Pickett (14) and Mark Wilson (10) would set new career highs for tackles.

Troy Falls to ULM on Halloween TROY, Ala. – On a rainy Halloween night, Troy fought penalties, turnovers and a motivated ULM team in a 49-37 defeat in Sun Belt Conference action at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Corey Robinson was 31-for-52 passing for 362 yards and two touchdowns but the Trojans offense couldn’t keep pace with a relentless ULM attack. The game marked the 24th time that Robinson has eclipsed 300 yards passing in his career. He would also tie Sim Byrd for the Troy record for career touchdown passing with 79. In just second game since returning from injury, ULM quarterback Kolton Browning threw for 354 yards and five touchdowns. Trailing 42-37, Troy had a chance to take the lead late in the contest but the Warhawks mounted a 6-play, 68-yard drive capped by a 29-yard touchdown pass from Browning to Tre’ Perrier to ice the game. Troy (5-4, 3-2 Sun Belt) was called for 11 penalties for 115 yards compared to just five penalties for 40 yards against ULM. The Trojans also turned the ball over twice. ULM (5-4, 3-1) took an early 14-0 lead before the Trojans answered when Robinson hit Wilson Van Hooser for a 21-yard score at the 10:00 mark in the second quarter. Van Hooser would finish with 61 yards receiving, a Troy career high. Van Hooser’s score was made possible by a 32-yard punt return by Bryan Holmes to set the Trojans up at the ULM 33. After the Warhawks tacked on another score, Troy’s special teams injected some life when Eli Canton blocked a ULM punt. The ball crossed the line of scrimmage and was scooped up by receiver K.D. Edenfield who carried the ball into the end zone for a touchdown. It was Troy’s first blocked punt since Nov. 20, 2007, against Middle Tennessee. It was also the first punt returned for a touchdown by the Trojans since 2010. Will Scott would add a 43-yard field goal moments later to cut the Trojans deficit to four, 2117, heading into halftime. ULM scored twice coming out of halftime to take a 35-17 advantage. The teams would trade scores at the end of the period starting with Holmes hauling in a 55-yard pass from Robinson. The score was set up by a 42-yard run by freshman Jordan Chunn; it was the longest rush of the season for the Trojans. The Warhawks responded with a 1-yard plunge from Browning with 44 second remaining in the third quarter. Chunn would find the end zone himself with 10:56 left in the game with a 2-yard run. Robinson followed by scoring from three yards out five minutes later. The loss drops Troy into third in the Sun Belt Conference standings with a pair of conference games left to play.

REVIEW

Troy’s Comeback Falls Short at ULL LAFAYETTE, La. – Troy fell just short of knocking off the top team in the Sun Belt Conference on Thursday, falling to Louisiana-Lafayette, 41-36, at Cajun Field. The Trojans faced a fourth-and-goal late in the fourth quarter but Corey Robinson’s pass to Eric Thomas fell incomplete allowing the Ragin’ Cajuns to run out the clock. Troy (5-5, 3-3 Sun Belt) trailed by as many as 15 points in the first half but a 20-point second quarter coupled with a strong second half defensive performance gave them a shot at the comeback. Brandon Burks rushed for 126 yards and Will Scott kicked three field goals for the Trojans. Scott’s 53-yarder with 4:09 left in the first quarter set a new school record, which he previously set with a 52-yard kick against Florida Atlantic last year. For Burks, it was his third 100-yard rushing game of the season. At the 13:30 mark in the second quarter, Jordan Chunn rushed for his 11th touchdown of the season, a 1-yard plunge to bring the Trojans within eight, 21-13. Chunn leads all NCAA freshmen in rushing touchdowns. After Louisiana-Lafayette (7-2, 4-0) responded with a touchdown, Troy marched quickly down the field to set up another scoring opportunity. On third-and-goal from the six, Khary Franklin took a handoff from Robinson but pulled up and tossed the ball to a wide-open B.J. Chitty in the back-right corner of the end zone. On the ensuing ULL drive, Camren Hudson stepped in front of a Travis Broadway pass and returned it 65-yards for a score. The touchdown cut the deficit to two, 28-26. The Ragin’ Cajuns would score once more before the end of the half. The teams would combine to score 34 points in the second quarter alone and 66 in the first half. The Trojans’ defense held Louisiana-Lafayette to just six points and seven first downs in the final two quarters. Robinson connected with Thomas for a 3-yard score with 6:59 left in the game. It was Thomas’ 11th touchdown reception of the season. On the play, Robinson took over as Troy’s all-time leader in career touchdown passes with 80 breaking a tie with Sim Byrd. A 51-yard completion to Thomas on the game’s first play also gave Robinson sole possession of the Sun Belt’s career offensive yards record. Defensively, Tyler Roberts recorded a pair of sack on the night. Roberts leads the team with six sacks.

Game 11 TROY 7 0 0 14 21 OLE MISS 20 7 17 7 51 Nov. 16 • Vaught-Hemingway Stadium • Oxford, Miss. • 52,931

Robinson Sets NCAA Milestone; Troy Falls at Ole Miss OXFORD, Miss. – Troy quarterback Corey Robinson became just the fourth quarterback in NCAA history to throw for over 3,000 yards in four seasons, but it was not enough as Ole Miss won its fourth straight game with a 51-21 victory over Troy in VaughtHemingway Stadium. Robinson finished the game 24-of-36 for 258 yards but saw his streak of 16 straight games with a touchdown pass snapped. His 3,086 passing yards this season puts his name alongside Oklahoma’s Landry Jones, Boise State’s Kellen Moore and Hawaii’s Timmy Chang as the only players to throw for over 3,000 yards in four seasons. Robinson also passed Texas’ Colt McCoy for ninth all-time in NCAA history with 13,344 passing yards. The teams traded touchdowns early in the first quarter. Bo Wallace hooked up with Laquon Treadwell for a 25-yard score to close out Ole Miss’ opening drive. On the first play of the ensuing possession, Robinson threw a 64-yard strike to Chandler Worthy down to the Ole Miss 11-yard line. It was the longest play of the season for the Trojans and set up a Brandon Burks 5-yard touchdown run.

Notable • Corey Robinson threw a 14yard pass to Brett Thiesen in the second quarter, putting him over 3,000 yards for the season. He becomes just the fourth player in NCAA history to eclipse 3,000 yards in four seasons (Timmy Chang - Hawaii, Landry Jones - Oklahoma, Kellen Moore - Boise State). • Jordan Chunn rushed for a 2-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, his 12th of the season. He is now tied with Shawn Southward for the most rushing touchdowns by a true freshman in program history. His 12 rushing touchdowns are also the fifth most in a single season by a Trojan in program history. • Chandler Worthy caught a 50yard pass from Dallas Tidwell in the fourth quarter, the 12th play of the season for Troy of at least 50 yards. It was also the longest completion of Tidwell’s career. • Will Scott recorded a 77-yard punt in the third quarter, the longest of his career. It was also the fifth longest punt in the nation this season. • Eric Thomas continues to climb the record books as well. He moved into 10th in Troy history in single-season receiving yards with 901 this year. He also moved into a tie for 10th in receptions, with 60.

Worthy led all players in the game with seven catches for 133 yards, while Eric Thomas had seven grabs for 76 yards. Dallas Tidwell completed 5-of-6 passes for 68 yards in relief of Robinson at the end of the game. The Rebels (7-3) scored on their next two possessions to build a 20-7 lead at the end of the first quarter. Wallace finished the game 17-of-26 for 272 yards and three touchdowns through the air; he also rushed for a game-high 66 yards and a score. Treadwell caught a pair of touchdown passes and finished the game with four catches for 53 yards. Ole Miss built its lead out to 44-7 before Jordan Chunn found the end zone for the Trojans (5-6) early in the fourth quarter. Following Terris Lewis’ first career interception, Chunn capped a fourplay drive with his 12th rushing touchdown of the season.

REVIEW

Troy Bowl Eligible Following 42-28 Victory over Texas State TROY, Ala. – Troy became bowl eligible for the sixth time in the last eight seasons with a 42-28 victory over Texas State at Veterans Memorial Stadium. The Trojans finish the regular season with a 6-6 record and are guaranteed a third place finish in the Sun Belt Conference. Troy’s senior quarterback combo of Corey Robinson and Deon Anthony combined to complete 21-of27 passes for 297 yards and three touchdowns. Anthony, who played for the first time since Oct. 31 against ULM, completed just two passes for 164 yards but connected with Bryan Holmes and Eric Thomas for scores; he also rushed five times for 40 yards. Robinson became the fifth player in NCAA history to record at least 3,000 yards of total offense in four seasons as he currently sits at 3,108 yards on the year. He is now one of just four players in NCAA history with at least 3,000 passing yards and 3,000 yards of total offense in four seasons. With the Trojans leading 21-14 coming out of halftime, the defense held Texas State to just 26 total offensive yards in the third quarter.

Notable • Corey Robinson became the fifth player in NCAA history to record at least 3,000 yards of total offense in four seasons. (Dan LeFevour Central Michigan, Landry Jones - Oklahoma, Kellen Moore - Boise State). • Corey Robinson moved up the all-time single season record book. He sits in fifth in passing attempts (421), fifth in completions (285) and fifth in passing yards (3219). • Jordan Chunn broke a 47-yard rush in the first quarter, the longest rush of the season for the Trojans. The previous long was 42, set by Chunn against ULM. He scored two touchdowns in the game to push his season total to 14, which established a new Troy freshman record. • Chandler Worthy became the first Trojan to score a rushing and receiving touchdown in a game since Jerrel Jernigan against Ohio on December 18, 2010. • Camren Hudson recorded his second career interception on Texas State’s opening drive. His first career interception came against ULL earlier in the season. Hudson finished the game with 12 tackles, setting a new careerhigh. • Bryan Holmes had a 42-yard punt return in the third quarter, the longest punt return of the season for the Trojans. • Mitchell Roland recorded a career-high six tackles.

Texas State opened the scoring with 5:43 left in the opening quarter on a 7-yard pass from quarterback Duke DeLancellotti to Ryan Carden. It didn’t take long for the Trojans to respond when Anthony hit Holmes on a screen pass for a 58-yard touchdown. Holmes finished with a team-high 128 yards receiving on three catches. He hauled in a 63-yard pass from Anthony on a third down in the third quarter. Jordan Chunn rushed for 83 yards on 13 carries including a 47-yard run late in the first quarter; it marks the longest rush of the season for the Trojans. Chunn would later score on the drive on a 1-yard plunge to set a new Troy record for most rushing touchdowns (13) in a season by a freshman. He would expand that record with another score in the fourth quarter and now has the third most rushing touchdowns in a season in Troy history. Chandler Worthy became the first Trojan since Jerrel Jernigan in 2010 to score a rushing and a receiving touchdown in the same game. Worthy found the end zone on a 1-yard speed sweep with 4:33 remaining in the third quarter then caught a 25-yard touchdown pass from Robinson in the fourth. Senior Camren Hudson turned in a solid defensive performance for Troy recording a career-high 12 tackles to go along with a forced fumble and two pass break ups. He also intercepted a Texas State pass on the third play of the game.

HISTORY

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

1968 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Led by a record-setting aerial attack and a defense that recorded four shutouts, the Red Wave claimed the 1969 NAIA National Championship with a 43-35 victory over Texas A&I at Cramton Bowl (Montgomery, Ala.). Under the guidance of third-year head coach Bill Atkins, Troy opened the season with a 49-31 win over Samford. In that game, quarterback Sim Byrd threw five touchdowns, hitting 23-of-33 passes for 443 yards. The Red Wave continued to roll, winning its first seven games. Byrd led Troy past Delta State, 35-23, connecting on 34-of-49 passes for 325 yards and three touchdowns; also rushing for two touchdowns. He followed that performance with five touchdown passes, all to Danny Grant, in a 52-0 win over McNeese State. Troy had risen to number three in the national poll before dropping a 12-3 decision to Tennessee-Martin. Byrd and Heard threw eight interceptions as the Red Wave could only muster a 34-yard field goal by Randy Hicks in the loss. Troy bounced back the next week, and demolished Concord (W.Va.), 76-0, on Homecoming at Veterans Memorial Stadium, rising back to number four in the NAIA rankings and earning a berth in the playoffs. Byrd was at it again, throwing for six touchdowns and rushing for another, while Ronnie Shelley returned two punts for touchdowns. The Red Wave advanced to the title game with a 63-10 victory over Willamette (Ore.) in the semifinals. Byrd threw for six touchdowns, while his back-up Al Heard threw two. Shelley joined the scoring with a 66-yard interception.

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

HISTORY

1984 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Ted Clem’s 50-yard field goal with no time remaining handed Troy an 18-17 win over North Dakota State and the 1984 Division II national championship in McAllen, Texas. With under 1:30 left in the game, Troy senior quarterback Carey Christensen, who had suffered a foot injury earlier in the season and split time with freshman Mike Turk, led Troy on a last-ditch drive. Starting from the Trojans’ 10-yard line, Christensen led Troy to the Bison 32. With the clock running, the kicking team was rushed onto the field. Clem’s foot met the ball as the horn sounded, and his attempt sailed through the uprights for the win. “The Kick,” as it is known in Trojan football lore, was the longest field goal in Division II playoff history at the time. Clem was not the only freshman walk-on to make an impact on the Trojans winning the national title. Turk, who walked on in the spring of 1984, moved rapidly up the depth chart and was thrust into the starting role in the third game of the season after Christensen went down with a broken foot. Turk carried the load the rest of the season as the starter, going on to earn Gulf South Conference “Freshman of the Year” honors. Then coached by Chan Gailey, the Trojans opened the season with a 26-7 win over Nicholls State. The defense held the Colonels to just 83 yards on the ground, with Rufus Cox delivering the striking blow on a 51-yard touchdown catch from Christensen. Troy rolled through Florida A&M the next week, 17-3, and followed that up with a 35-26 win over Livingston. Holding on to a slim 28-26 lead, and with Livingston driving, Mike Brewster returned an interception 44 yards for a touchdown to seal the win, which was marred by the loss of Christensen early in the game with a broken foot. Turk came on in relief, going 8-of-13 passing for 166 yards and a touchdown. The Trojan offense racked up 468 yards, 382 on the ground, in a 41-10 win over West Georgia. The ground attack continued its pounding the next week, racking up 331 yards, 92 by Turk, in a 27-12 win over Valdosta State. Trailing No. 10 Mississippi College 7-0 in the fourth quarter, the Trojans scored twice in the final six minutes to pull out a 14-7 win. Turk began the rally with a quarterback sneak from the 1-yard line. On the ensuing kickoff, Brewster forced a fumble, which Troy recovered at the Choctaw 20. One play later, Turk found Rufus Cox with a TD pass to preserve the Trojans’ victory. The offense was back in order against Delta State, racking up 459 yards in a 35-20 win over the Statesmen. The Trojans then faced another setback, dropping a 13-10 decision to UNA. Troy had two chances late in the game, but an interception coupled with Clem missing a 39-yard field goal with nine seconds left, sealed Troy’s fate. Troy bounced back to win its last two games and the Gulf South Conference title. The Trojans routed UT-Martin, 31-7, on Homecoming and wrapped up the regular season with a 42-39 victory over archrival Jacksonville State. With the GSC title, the Trojans advanced to the Division II playoffs and hosted Central State (Ohio) in the quarterfinals. The wishbone offense flexed its muscles, running up 579 yards of offense, as Troy pulled out a 31-21 win. The semifinals were a repeat of the quarterfinals as the offense ruled the day. Troy pounded out 537 yards and demolished Towson State, 45-3, to advance to the title game. @TroyAthletics

HISTORY

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

1987 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Led by an offense that averaged 430.4 yards per game, the Troy football team won its last 12 games to claim the 1987 Division II national title. The Trojans got off to 0-1-1 start, dropping an 18-17 decision on the road at Southeast Missouri in the opener. Ted Clem missed a 42-yard field goal in the final minute which would have given the Trojans the lead. Troy followed its tough opener with a 17-17 tie with Nicholls State. On a rain-soaked field, Clem missed another clutch kick, this time a 40-yarder with a 1:39 left. Troy's offense showed its strength in the home opener against West Texas with a 45-0 rout. Mike Turk led the offense with 50 yards on six carries as the offense racked up 356 yards. The Trojans picked up some confidence in pulling out a 24-17 win over Livingston on the road. The Troy offense picked up 349 yards of total offense, highlighted by Titus Dixon's 63-yard touchdown reception from Turk in the second quarter. The offense continued to roll for Troy the next week, racking up a then school-record 621 yards in a 44-6 win over West Georgia. Backup quarterback Bob Godsey came on in relief of Turk and led the Troy offensive attack with 88 yards on six carries, including a 66-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. The Trojans put up more than 40 points their next two games to extend their winning streak to five. Troy went on the road and demolished nationally ranked and previously undefeated Valdosta State, 44-7 and followed that with a 48-21 victory over Mississippi College, as Thomas Miller and Al Harris both ran back interceptions for touchdowns. The Trojans scored 30 or more in the next three games to capture eight in a row. Tony Jackson rushed for 123 yards on 20 carries as Troy defeated Delta State, 38-6. The next week Turk guided the offense, going 7-of-10 for 112 yards and one touchdown, while rushing for 67 yards on seven carries and touchdown, as Troy blew out North Alabama, 38-3. The Trojans continued their offensive ways in a 31-21 win over UT-Martin. Troy broke the school-record for the second time during the season, rolling up 633 yards in the win. Turk was 11-of-18 passing for 262 yards with two touchdowns and a 97-yard TD pass to Dixon. With the Gulf South Conference title on the line, Troy defeated arch-rival Jacksonville State, 14-9, to earn a berth in the Division II playoffs. Turk led the offense with 101 yards rushing, with Jackson adding 78. Troy ran its win streak to 10 games with a 45-14 win over Winston-Salem State in the quarterfinals. The Troy offense picked up 383 yards rushing, led by Jackson's 93 yards on 12 carries. The defense stepped up in the semifinals, causing eight turnovers, four interceptions and four fumbles, as Troy defeated Central Florida, 31-10, to advance to the title game. Turk led the offense again, rushing for two touchdowns and passing for another, leading the Troy rushing attack with 78 yards on 13 carries. The Trojans would not be denied in the national title game, rallying from a 10-3 halftime deficit to pull out a 31-17 win over Portland State and their second national title in four years. Turk set a championship game record with 190 yards on 25 carries and Dixon ran the reverse four times for 111 yards, and one 49-yard TD. Turk was named to the All-America team following his senior season and was runner-up for the Harlon Hill Trophy.

TROY TROJANS MAKE FIRST BOWL APPEARANCE OF DIVISION I ERA SAN JOSE, Calif. - The Trojans started their first appearance in a bowl game with a bang, jumping to a 14-0 first quarter lead over Northern Illinois in the Fifth Annual Silicon Valley Football Classic, but the Huskies proved to be better in the mud, battling back to down the Trojans 34-21. The Trojans wasted little time getting on the scoreboard, taking the opening drive 78 yards in nine plays to take a 7-0 lead. Freshman quarterback D.T. McDowell found a diving Jason Samples on a 45-yard completion to the Huskies’ one-yard line, setting up a keeper over senior left guard Junior Louissaint for the score. After the Huskies went three and out on their first possession, the Trojans put another drive together. This time it was a 73-yard possession that spanned eight plays and culminated with a 23-yard screen pass to senior Jermaine Richardson from McDowell with 6:05 to play in the opening quarter. McDowell scored his second touchdown on the night on a four-yard run with 10:50 remaining in the game to snap a string of 34 unanswered NIU points. The Northern Illinois run of points began when Garrett Wolfe scored a 50-yard touchdown scamper in the first quarter to trim the lead to 14-7. Trojans senior DeWhitt Betterson was named the game’s offensive MVP after rushing for 150 yards on 25 carries. He also had an apparent 85-yard third quarter touchdown run called back after a fan on the Northern Illinois sideline blew a whistle.

Trojans Claim 1st Bowl Victory NEW ORLEANS, La. - The talk around Troy practice all week leading up to the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl was about being the first team in school history to win a bowl game. The Trojans made sure their first trip to represent the Sun Belt Conference in New Orleans was a memorable one by jumping on the Rice Owls with 21 first quarter points and never looking back in a 41-17 victory in front of 24,791 fans at the Louisiana Superdome. Junior quarterback Omar Haugabook showed why he was named Sun Belt Player of the Year by running and passing for five touchdowns in earning game Most Valuable Player honors in unanimous fashion. Haugabook rushed for 92 yards and one score and completed 14 of 28 passes for 217 yards and a New Orleans Bowl record four touchdowns. The Trojans finished the 2006 season with an 8-5 record while Rice closed its year at 7-6.

Scoring Summary TROY - Haugabook 2-yard run (Whibbs kick), 10:41, 1st TROY - Banks 3-yard pass from Haugabook (Whibbs kick), 9:50, 1st RICE - Falco 11-yard pass from Armstrong (Fangmeier kick), 5:12, 1st TROY - Terry 56-yard pass from Haugabook (Whibbs kick), 0:02, 1st RICE - Fangmeier 43-yard FG, 12:05, 2nd TROY - Davis 7-yard pass from Haugabook, 9:41, 2nd TROY - Whibbs 25-yard FG, 3:31, 3rd TROY - Whibbs 26-yard FG, 9:16, 4th RICE - Dillard 1-yard pass from Armstrong (Fangmeier kick), 4:58, 4th TROY - Rutledge 5-yard pass from Haugabook (Whibbs kick), 1:56, 4th Team Statistics First Downs Rushes-Yards Passing Yards Passes Att-Comp-Int Total Offense Plays-Yards

TROY MAKES RETURN TRIP TO NEW ORLEANS BOWL NEW ORLEANS, La. - Sam Glusman’s attempt at a game-tying field goal was blocked in the first overtime by Southern Miss defensive back Michael McGee giving USM the 30-27 victory in the 2008 R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl at the Superdome. Britt Barefoot tied the game with a 46-yard field goal with 2:57 remaining and Troy could not muster a score on its final drive sending the game to overtime. Southern Miss lost the toss and went on offense first and after being stopped on third down, settled for a 39-yard field goal and gave the Trojans the ball. Troy picked up a first down on their possession on a swing-pass to Jerrel Jernigan. Faced with a third-down just three plays later, the conversion failed. “We knew the game was going to be a close game,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “We knew that both teams would probably score some points. We thought that we would be able to move it a little bit better. I said last week that whoever rushes it the best will wind up winning the game and that’s what happened. We got to overtime tied at 27. They get a ricochet field goal for three and we get one blocked. That’s about as close as it gets. “Our kids played hard, played together and never gave up and we lost the game. We are going to get home and get back to work. I’m very proud of this team and especially our seniors for what they have done.”

2009

TROY MAKES BACK-TO-BACK Bowl Appearances MOBILE, Ala. - For the second time in as many seasons, the Troy University Trojans got their post-season hearts broken in the flash of an overtime blocked field goal. This time, in the 2010 GMAC Bowl, it was sophomore Michael Taylor’s attempt from 31 yards in the second overtime that was blocked by Central Michigan’s Vince Agnew, opening the door for the Chippewas’ game-winning 37-yard field goal in a 44-41 victory over Troy. “I hate [it] for the kids, it hurts them,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “I’m an old guy, I can handle it more readily. When your older and more mature your able to handle winning and losing a little better. “I’m proud of the Troy fans. They showed up and did their part. They’ll be like me, scratching around trying to get back to the GMAC bowl next year. I want to commend everyone from the leadership to the volunteers who took real good care of us.” Taylor connected on a GMAC Bowl record 46-yard field goal at the end of regulation to send the game into overtime after CMU took the lead with just 1:17 to play when Dan LeFevour connected with Bryan Anderson for a 4-yard TD pass. Levi Brown threw for 386 yards and a touchdown to become the first player in school and Sun Belt history to throw for more than 4,000 yards in a season. Jerrel Jernigan had nine receptions in the game for 154 yards, and became just the fourth player in school history with more than 1,000 receiving yards in a season; he finished the game with 350 all-purpose yards. DuJuan Harris had his first 100-yard rushing game of the season and scored three touchdowns in the game for the Trojans.

Trojans Truck Ohio in New Orleans Bowl NEW ORLEANS, La. - The Trojans made it look easy in the Big Easy as they rolled to a 48-21 victory over the Ohio Bobcats in the10th Anniversary R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. “We’re certainly proud to be sitting here as the victors over Ohio U,” Troy head coach Larry Blakeney said. “We prepared well, and I think our kids, after coming back from some pretty tough losses and closing with two wins and being the co-champs, helped motivate us. We haven’t won here since we beat Rice. I felt a lot of energy. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t just about being in New Orleans.” That “energy” resonated the most through the Trojans freshman quarterback who put on a show for ESPN’s national audience. Bowl MVP Corey Robinson threw for a New Orleans Bowl record 387 yards and four touchdowns as the Trojans’ offense racked up 607 total yards on the night. Jerrel Jernigan added to his NFL resume tape as well in his final game as a Trojan. Jernigan caught seven passes on the night for 48 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed three times for 16 yards and a score, all after being down with the flu. With the Bobcats’ defense focused on double-teaming Jernigan, another star emerged for the Trojans. Senior TeBiarus Gill had three touchdowns on just four receptions, piling up 80 receiving yards in the game for Troy. DuJuan Harris also hit his stride in the bowl win, leading all Trojans on the ground with 105 yards rushing, including a touchdown. A 50-yard rush in the third quarter helped him hit triple figures on the night, and two plays later he earned his score.

NATIONAL AWARD WINNERS

HISTORY

AL LUCAS BUCK BUCHANAN AWARD 1999 WINNER This award is given yearly to the top defensive player in the nation at the NCAA Division I-AA level. The award was named after former Grambling State defensive lineman Buck Buchanan, who went on to a stellar career with the Kansas City Chiefs. Two-time All-American defensive tackle Al Lucas claimed the award after the 1999 season. That year, he led the Trojans with an 11-2 record and a berth in the Division I-AA quarterfinals. He finished with 126 tackles, which ranked second on the team and recorded 20 tackles for loss during the season.

NICK COLBERT 2000 SCHOLaR-ATHLETE AWARD Nick Colbert was named a 2000 College Football Scholar-Athlete by the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame. He was one 16 award recipients named in 2000 for the award which represents college football’s finest studentathletes from all divisions. Colbert graduated from Troy in May 2001 with his degree in Biology, and finished with a grade point average better than 3.7. He was an annual member on the school’s Provost and Chancellor Lists for academic excellence. Since 1959, when the first class was selected, 586 scholar-athletes have been awarded the honor based on superior academic performance, outstanding football ability, strong leadership and citizenship. Each scholar-athlete is awarded an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship and honored at an annual dinner for the award. Including Colbert, there have only been eight winners from the state of Alabama, with the last being in 1991 before Colbert’s honor.

HISTORY

LEODIS MCKELVIN 2007 ALL-AMERICAN RIVALS, SPORTING NEWS, PRO WEEKLY

ONLY FBS ALL-AMERICAN IN SCHOOL HISTORY Troy’s Leodis McKelvin became Troy’s first Football Bowl Subdivision All-American in 2007 when he named to the Rivals. com All-America Team, The Sporting News All-America First Team and the Pro Football Weekly All-American First Team. McKelvin, a native of Waycross, Ga., was the only player in the nation to return three punts for touchdowns in 2007. He ranked third in the nation with an average of 18.3 yards per return; that included a 74-yard touchdown against Oklahoma State, an 84-yard score against FIU and a 52-yard touchdown against North Texas. He also led the Trojans in all-purpose yardage with 1,192 despite not having taken an offensive snap all season. He had 436 yards on 25 punt returns and 765 more yards on 33 kickoffs, recording an impressive 23.2 kickoff return average. McKelvin also finished his Trojan career with seven career combined punt and kickoff returns for touchdowns, one shy of the all-time NCAA record. An outstanding cover corner, as well, McKelvin recorded 60 total tackles during the season, 52 solo, added two interceptions, 11 pass break-ups and three forced fumbles and excelled against top competition in the Trojans’ biggest games such as Oklahoma State, Georgia, Arkansas and Florida. McKelvin was also one of seven Trojans named to the Rivals. com All-Sun Belt team for 2007. He was joined on the team by quarterback Omar Haugabook, offensive lineman Dion Small, defensive tackle Chris Bradwell, linebacker Boris Lee, defensive back Elbert Mack and kicker Greg Whibbs. The Buffalo Bills selected him with the 11th overall pick of the 2008 NFL Draft. McKelvin did not disappoint in his rookie season as he was an All-Pro selection.

The Troy Trojans name has become synonymous with the National Football League Draft over the last few years, but it didn’t start just recently. The first player drafted from the ranks of the Troy University football program was back 1969 when the Miami Dolphins took a chance on tight end Glenn Thompson. Since that year, there have been 33 players drafted into the ranks of the NFL, including nine that have been drafted since joining the Sun Belt Conference. Troy has had more players selected in the NFL Draft than any school in the league despite not joining the conference until its fourth-year of existence. The Trojans still own the highest draft pick of any Sun Belt Conference member school when DeMarcus Ware was selected 11th overall in 2005 by Dallas, only to be matched by Leodis McKelvin in 2008 when he was selected by the Buffalo Bills.

TROY TIMELINE

In July, construction began on expansion of Veterans Memorial Stadium, increasing capacity to 30,000. Troy finished 4-8 in its first season as a full member of NCAA Division I-A, playing eight games away from home. The remodeling of Veterans Memorial Stadium began in November, and the final home game of the season against Utah State was played amid construction. Defensive end Osi Umenyiora finished second in the nation in sacks with 16, while the Troy defense ranked fourth nationally in total defense. 2003 - In May, Troy joined in a partnership with Movie Gallery to rename the football stadium “Movie Gallery Veterans Stadium”. A month later, the Trojans received an invitation to join the Sun Belt Conference in football in 2004 and all sports in the 2005-06 school year. The Trojans opened their new 30,000-seat home on September 20 with a 28-0 win over Southeastern Louisiana and followed the next week with a 33-24 victory over Marshall that prompted the Trojan students to tear down the goal posts. Troy finished the season ranked third nationally in interceptions. DeWhitt Betterson tallied a school-record 1,161 yards rushing on 244 carries. 2004 - Troy opens its first season as a member of the Sun Belt Conference with a road victory at Marshall and a nationally-televised win over nationally-ranked Missouri on ESPN2. Following the two wins, Troy dropped four of its next five games by a combined 22 points, including a four-point loss at defending national champion LSU. The Trojans went on a run from there, winning their final four games of the season to finish 7-4. The team was rewarded with the first bowl invitation in school history. On December 30, the Trojans played Northern Illinois in the fifth annual Silicon Valley Football Classic in San Jose.

The highlight of the season was a 13-10 victory over North Texas in Denton, snapping a 22-game conference Mean Green win streak in front a national television audience. That victory, however, was overshadowed by a pair of home losses and a 4-7 record. 2006 - The Trojans debuted a new offensive philosophy that moved away from the traditional power ground game the program was known for. Troy led the Sun Belt Conference in passing en route to their first league title. Near misses against Florida State and Georgia Tech early in the season, along with tough losses at UAB and Nebraska, left the Trojans at 1-4 heading into conference play. The team rebounded with four straight wins before a home loss to Arkansas State put the Trojans’ backs against the wall. That wall fell when Troy won in the “Miracle at Murfreesboro”, defeating Middle Tennessee State after scoring two touchdowns with just 2:14 to play in the game. A win over FIU the next week clinched Troy’s league title and a berth in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl where the Trojans steamed Rice 4117 to complete an 8-5 season.

Corey Robinson put up the fourth most passing yards, third most completions and sixth most passing touchdowns in a singleseason in school history 2012 - A pair of firsts in Troy football history occurred as Mississippi State became the first team from the Southeastern Conference to play in Veterans Memorial Stadium and Navy became the first service academy to play in Troy.

Troy nearly pulled off another SEC stunner as the Trojans led Tennessee 48-41 with just over three minutes remaining in the game. However, Tennessee scored twice with just under 90 seconds to defeat Troy 55-48.

TROY GLOSSARY ALABAMA COLLEGIATE CONFERENCE Formed in 1960, the ACC as it was known, was created by four in-state rivals; Troy, Jacksonville State, Florence State (now North Alabama) and Livingston (now West Alabama). The Trojans dominated the last three years of the conference, claiming the league title in 1967, 1968 and 1969. ALABAMA INTERCOLLEGIATE CONFERENCE The ACC’s predecessor, the Alabama Intercollegiate Conference, was formed in 1938 by the same in-state schools, along with Marion Military and St. Bernard. It was the first conference that the Trojans joined, and they would claim the league title for the first time in 1939. They also won back-to-back titles in 1941 and 1942. BILLY ATKINS Took over as head coach at Troy after William Clipson’s 1-8 season in 1965, and immediately revived the program. He brought the Trojans to national prominence, and during his six years his record was 44-16-2 including the 1968 NAIA National Championship. He coached several of the all-time greats in Troy history including Sim Byrd, Ronnie Shelley and Vince Green. Atkins is second on the school’s all-time win list behind current head coach Larry Blakeney. He was inducted into the Troy University Sports Hall of Fame in the inaugural class in 2012. BATTLE FOR THE OL’ SCHOOL BELL At every level of college football, there are great rivalries. For Troy, it is bitter rival Jacksonville State University. The two teams began playing each other in 1924, with the Gamecocks holding a 33-28-2 edge in the all-time series. However, the Trojans have won seven straight and 12-of-15 in the series. Both schools began as teacher colleges in the late 1800s, and, when the teams first played, they created a trophy that the winner would have until the teams met again the following year. School officials determined that it was fitting for two teachers colleges to play for a school bell. BATTLE FOR THE PALLADIUM The Battle for the Palladium is the matchup between Troy and Middle Tennessee. The series elevated to a new level with the news of Troy joining Middle Tennessee in the Sun Belt Conference. In 2003, the Palladium Trophy was introduced in Murfreesboro, Tenn. A year later, Troy officially joined the Sun Belt Conference after completing its final year of transition from Division I-AA (FCS) to I-A (FBS). Greek mythology holds that the Palladium is a wooden statue that fell from the Heavens. It was kept at the Temple of Athena in the city of Troy. According to legend, as long as the Palladium was preserved within the walls of the city, Troy would be safe and could not be taken. However, a “Raider” by the name of Odysseus - also known as the Raider of Cities - stole the Palladium during the Trojan War leading to the fall of Troy. The Palladium is approximately three feet tall and is made of basswood. Gold leaf was applied to Athena’s helmet, shield and to the tip of the spear. In 2008, ESPN named “The Battle for the Palladium” as one of the Top 5 non-BCS in-conference rivalries in college football BOWL GAMES The Trojans have played in six bowl games in their history - the 1948 Paper Bowl, in Pensacola, Fla., the 2004 Silicon Valley Football Classic, in San Jose, Calif. and the 2006, 2008 & 2010 R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl and the 2010 GMAC Bowl. The Trojans faced arch-rival Jacksonville State in the Paper Bowl, losing 19-0 at Pensacola High School’s new stadium, which had just one set of bleachers, according to records. The game was played on Dec. 18 and sponsored by Southern paper mills as a tribute to the nearly 100,000 workers in the industry at that time. An excerpt from the game program reads “the paper-making industry at Cantonment means much to Pensacola and this area of the state in payrolls and business generally ... December 18 was picked because students were at home for the holidays at this time, and many fans who would like to take in other bowl games later in the month, and on Jan. 1, will be able to do so at this time.” However, 2004 marked the first time the Trojans were eligible for an automatic bowl bid since moving to Division I-A. Troy’s new home, the Sun Belt Conference, sends its champion to the New Orleans Bowl each season in December. Even though Troy did not earn the automatic bid to the New Orleans Bowl, the Trojans did earn an invitation to the Silicon Valley Football Classic in San Jose, Calif. On a rainy night in California, the Trojans made their Division I-A bowl debut against Northern Illinois from the Mid-American Conference. After jumping out to a 14-0 @TroyAthletics

HISTORY

lead in the first quarter, the Trojans turned as cold as the weather and dropped a 34-21 decision to the Huskies. The Trojans earned their first bowl victory in 2005, downing Rice 41-17 in the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. Troy earned its way into the bowl by posting a 6-1 record in Sun Belt Conference play to capture their first SBC title. Since that bowl game, the Trojans have played in three other bowl games, the 2008 New Orleans Bowl, the 2010 GMAC Bowl (2009 season) as conference champions and the 2010 New Orleans Bowl. Troy jumped out to a 41-7 lead in the third quarter against Ohio in the 2010 New Orleans Bowl and rolled to a 48-21 victory. Corey Robinson threw for a New Orleans Bowl record 387 yards and Tebiarus Gill caught four passes for 80 yards and three touchdowns. LEVI BROWN Levi Brown rewrote the history books in his final season of 2009. He held school records for completions in a single game, attempts in a single game and passing yards in a single game (breaking his own record). He also holds the school record for passing yards in a single season, which is the best in the Sun Belt history books at over 4,000 yards. He finished his career as the Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year, and was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the seventh round. SIM BYRD One of the greatest players ever to play at Troy, Byrd owns many of the school’s all-time passing records. During his three seasons at quarterback, he guided the Trojans to a 24-8 record and the school’s first national championship, the NAIA title in 1968. Named first-team All-America and All-ACC his senior year in 1968, he set the single-season record for passing yards with 3,569 in 1968 while also setting school records for completions (260), attempts (414). He was inducted into the Troy University Sports Hall of Fame in the inaugural class in 2012. TED CLEM Clem set the standard for all Troy kickers. He was the key participant in one of the most historic plays in school history as a true freshman - “The Kick” as it has been dubbed by Troy faithful. His 50-yard field goal as time expired gave Troy an 18-17 win over North Dakota State in 1984 and its first NCAA Division II national championship. Clem set the single-game record for points in a game with 14, and owns the career record book. Clem kicked 48 field goals in his four years in Troy, from 1984-87. He still holds the school record for attempts with 78 field goal attempts and consecutive PATs made (166). NICK COLBERT Nick Colbert was named as a 2000 College Football Scholar-Athlete by the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame. He was one of 16 award recipients named in 2000 for the award, which represents college football’s finest studentathletes from all divisions. Colbert graduated from Troy in May 2001 with his degree in Biology. He finished his degree boasting a grade point average better than 3.7. He was an annual member on the school’s Provost’s and Chancellor’s lists for academic excellence. The award has been presented annually since 1959 to players based on superior academic performance, outstanding football ability, strong leadership and citizenship. Each scholar-athlete is awarded an $18,000 postgraduate scholarship and honored at the Foundation’s Annual Awards Dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York. Other notable athletes to earn the award along with Colbert were Purdue’s Drew Brees, Florida State’s Chris Weinke and a fellow Southland Conference athlete, McNeese State’s Wes Hines. COMING-OUT PARTY Troy made its Division I-A debut on Sept. 1, 2001, when the Trojans traveled to face fourth-ranked Nebraska. The Trojans showed they could play at the I-A level, taking an early 7-0 lead on a 9-yard touchdown run by Demontray Carter. Brock Nutter capped an improbable half, throwing a 31-yard touchdown pass to Heyward Skipper to cut the Cornhuskers’ lead to 28-14 at the intermission. The Trojans fought valiantly in the second half, keeping Nebraska out of the end zone on two drives inside the 1-yard line in the fourth quarter. Jimmy McClain stopped Eric Crouch on the 1-yard line, and the entire defense stopped Thunder Collins from leaping into the end zone. CHAN GAILEY Gailey led the Trojans to the 1984 Division II national championship. In his two seasons at Troy, Gailey led the Trojans to a 19-5 record. After taking over the program in 1983, he guided the Trojans to a five-game improvement, going 7-4 his first year.

HISTORY

TROY GLOSSARY

In his final year, he led the Trojans to the national title. He was inducted into the Troy University Sports Hall of Fame in 2013. FIRST NIGHT GAME In 1928, the Troy football team played its first night game in Montgomery at Cramton Bowl. Troy faced off against Maxwell Field, claiming a 13-0 victory. GULF SOUTH CONFERENCE Members from Troy, Delta State, Florence State (now North Alabama), Livingston (now West Alabama), Tennessee-Martin and Jacksonville State all met in Birmingham during the summer of 1970 to form the Mid-South Conference. Scheduling conflicts in the first year allowed competition only in football. Southeastern Louisiana and Nicholls State joined the conference later, giving the conference eight members and the league changed its name to the Gulf South Conference. On June 4, 1990, Troy officially withdrew from the GSC. During its 20 years in the GSC, Troy claimed six conference titles. The Trojans hold a 129-75-5 all-time record in GSC play. JERREL JERNIGAN Jernigan ended his career as one of the most prolific players in Troy University history as he rewrote the record book. Jernigan made his mark in career receptions, receiving yards, yards per game and all-purpose yards. Jernigan also rewrote the Sun Belt Conference record book over his four years of competition. The senior was selected to participate in the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine, before being drafted in the third round by the New York Giants in the 2011 NFL Draft. “THE KICK” “The Kick,” as it is called, is used to describe true freshman Ted Clem’s 50-yard field goal as time expired that gave Troy an 18-17 win over North Dakota in the 1984 Division II national title game. The kick was Clem’s third field goal of the game and finished off one of the greatest comebacks in school history after the Trojans fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter. “THE KICK” - PART TWO Drew Boteler’s 22-yard field goal attempt slipped through the uprights, capping a 14-point comeback, as Troy rallied to knock off North Texas, 18-16, in the school’s first home game against a Division I-A school on Dec. 1, 2001. Boteler’s gamewinner was not a picture-perfect kick. The field was soaked from rain that had fallen throughout the day, and the redshirt freshman slipped while planting to make the kick. On top of that, the kick was tipped at the line of scrimmage, leading one North Texas lineman to celebrate as the officials signaled the kick was good. AL LUCAS Following the 1999 season, two-time All-America defensive tackle Al Lucas claimed the award, given annually to the top defensive player in Division I-AA. Lucas tragically died as the result of an on-field injury suffered in an Arena Football League game on April 10, 2005. LEODIS MCKELVIN Leodis McKelvin became the second Trojan to be selected in the first round of the NFL Draft when he was selected as the 11th overall pick by the Buffalo Bills. He is also the first Trojan to be named an All-American in football since the Trojans joined the ranks of NCAA Division I. McKelvin finished his career with seven kickoff and punt returns for a touchdown, which was just one shy of an NCAA record. VIRGIL PARKS MCKINLEY Virgil Parks McKinley, a professor at the Troy Normal School, was charged with the task of fielding the first school football team. McKinley, who attended the University of Alabama but never received a football letter, had 14 players try out for the team but kept just 11. He guided the squad to a 1-0-2 record that first season against a variety of community, high school and other university teams. He was inducted into the Troy University Sports Hall of Fame in the inaugural class in 2012.

BROCK NUTTER A four-year starter for the Trojans, Brock Nutter never missed a start, starting all 44 regular-season games and four I-AA playoff games, setting a new school record. He was selected as team captain his last three seasons and held a 35-13 record as a starter. Nutter rewrote the passing record book, completing 581 passes, surpassing Sim Byrd’s record of 575. He also attempted 1037 passes, shattering the former record held by Byrd of 924. Nutter threw for a school-record 7,791 yards and also broke the school record for total offense, with 7,494 yards. PRO BOWL The 2007 NFL Pro Bowl featured two former Troy Trojans in the starting lineup for the National Football Conference (NFC) in Osi Umeniyora and DeMarcus Ware. It marked the first time that two Trojans were starting in the prestigious postseason game for the National Football League. COREY ROBINSON Finished his career with 11 Troy and Sun Belt Conference career records, including the record for passing yards, passing touchdowns, passing attempts, completions and total offense in both record books. Robinson was named the 2010 Sun Belt Freshman of the Year and was named to the All-Sun Belt First Team following his 2013 senior season. Robinson is one of just five players in NCAA history with 3,000 yards of total offense and 3,000 passing yards in four seasons. When he completed his time at Troy, Robinson ranked ninth in NCAA history in passing yards. Additionally, he set an NCAA record after completing 30-of-32 passes against UAB in 2013; the 93.8 completion percentage is the highest by a quarterback with at least 30 attempts. STATISTICAL CHAMPIONS Since Troy joined the NCAA in the 1970s, the Trojans have had two statistical champions in an individual category. Quarterback Willie Tullis led the nation in passing efficiency during the 1980 season among Division II teams. Tullis had a passing efficiency rating of 147.5 after completing 108 of 203 passes (.532 percentage). He connected for 15 touchdowns and threw just eight interceptions. Tullis threw for 1,880 yards in 10 games that season. Andy Swafford captured the other statistical title in 1997 at the Division I-AA level, when he led the nation in kickoff returns, averaging 31.4 yards on 14 kick returns. He tallied 440 yards in returns during the 1997 campaign. SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE In the summer of 1995, Troy, along with Jacksonville State, McNeese State, Nicholls State, Northwestern State, Sam Houston State, Southwest Texas and Stephen F. Austin, met in New Orleans to reform the Southland Conference into a football only sub-conference. During their five seasons in the SLC, the Trojans claimed three titles, in 1996, 1999 and 2000. The Trojans posted a 26-9 record in conference play during their five seasons and saw 54 players earned all-conference honors, while two players earned Defensive Player of the Year (Pratt Lyons, 1996; Anthony Rabb, 1999) honors and another Newcomer of the Year (Demontray Carter, 2000). Head coach Larry Blakeney twice earned Coach of the Year honors (1999 and 2000). SUPER BOWL Six former Troy University Trojans have played in the Super Bowl. The first Trojan to make an appearnce was Virgil Seay for the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XVII in 1983. The Redskins defeated Miami 27-17. Former offensive lineman Kerry Jenkins won Super Bowl XXXVII with the Tampa Bay Bucs in 2003, while former defensive end Osi Umenyiora and place kicker Lawrence Tynes won Super Bowl XLII (2008) with the New York Giants - defeating previously unbeaten New England in the process. Former defensive end Steve McLendon played in Super Bowl XLV with the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Green Bay Packers. Tynes, Umenyiora and former wide receiver Jerrel Jernigan teamed up on the 2012 New York Giants as they won Super Bowl XLVI 21-17 over the Patriots.

MIRACLE IN MURFREESBORO Senior receiver Smokey Hampton turned in the performance of a lifetime with catch after catch, leading the Trojans to a victory at Middle Tennessee after trailing 20-7 with just 2:19 remaining in the contest. The senior combined with Gary Banks to catch touchdown passes in a 21-20 Troy victory.

SUN BELT CONFERENCE On May 23, 2003, Troy University accepted an invitation to join the Sun Belt Conference in all sports, marking the first time all of Troy’s sports competed in the same league since the school moved to Division I in 1993. The Troy football program began play in its first Division I-A conference home in the fall of 2004, while all other sports began competition in the league beginning in the fall of 2005.

MISSISSIPPI STATE GOES DOWN Playing just its fifth game as a Division I-A member, Troy stunned the nation as it went into Starkville, Miss., and knocked off Southeastern Conference foe Mississippi State 21-9. The Trojans jumped out to a 21-0 lead in the second quarter and held the Bulldogs to just 272 yards of total offense in the victory.

THE NIGHT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT IN TROY On Sept. 3, 1988, Troy opened its defense of the 1987 Division II national championship at home against Southeast Missouri. Clinging to a 13-6 lead midway through the third quarter of a tight game, a transformer that controlled power to the lights at then Memorial Stadium malfunctioned, cutting the stadium lights.

TROY GLOSSARY During the ensuing two-and-a-half hour delay, the teams discussed their options. After deciding against moving the game to Montgomery’s Cramton Bowl, the teams elected to finish the game on Troy’s lower practice field, which was lighted. With the entire grassy bank next to the practice field almost full, the Trojans finished off the game with a 26-13 win. TRACKING THE TROY FOOTBALL FIELD The Troy football team’s home field has changed locations numerous times through the years. The inaugural team played off campus in a field on Orion Street. In 1910, The Association built an athletic field on the north side of the old college campus. The field was built by V.P. McKinley, the players and a handful of students. It had a grandstand, bleachers and a six-foot fence that surrounded the field. In 1925, the team began playing games on campus, on the site of what is now Shackleford Hall. Over the next 25 years, the Troy football team played its home games on the grounds where Smith Hall now stands and in a field that is now the outfield of Riddle-Pace Field. In 1950, Memorial Stadium opened for the first time. It began with a seating capacity of 5,000 but has grown to more than 30,000 today and is known as Veterans Memorial Stadium. T-ROY T-Roy, the Troy mascot and a fan favorite, has been a familiar sight at Troy athletic events since making his first appearance in the mid 1980s. T-Roy became the official school mascot after a campus-wide decision on the name for a new mascot. There was an election by the student body with “T-Roy” coming out on top. In the spring of 2008, T-Roy was voted the third best mascot in the nation. TROJANS - THE NICKNAME The Troy athletic teams have had a variety of names through the years - from Bulldogs to Teachers to Red Wave. As the football team began competition in the 1910s, the team was called Bulldogs or Teachers (since the school began as a teacher’s college). In 1922, the group was called Trojans for the first time. That lasted until Albert Elmore’s arrival on campus in 1931. A graduate of the University of Alabama, Elmore changed the nickname to Red Wave, a variation of Crimson Tide. The Red Wave moniker stuck until 1973, when the student body was again charged with voting for its new team nickname. The first game of the season in 1973 was on the road against Northeast Louisiana (now Louisiana-Monroe). The squad departed Troy without a nickname, but students voted on the nickname that Saturday morning. The winner? Trojans. The current nickname won the election by a two-to-one margin, with the ballots being tallied hours before kickoff. With the new nickname, the Trojans battled Northeast Louisiana to a 15-15 tie. TROJANS IN THE POLLS During their eight years at the I-AA level, the Trojans were a mainstay in the I-AA polls. Troy finished ranked in the Top 25 every year but one (1997). Troy finished at the top of the polls in 1993, and was ranked number one for three straight weeks in 2000. Overall, the Trojans finished in the top five, four times and the top 10, five times. TROY UNIVERSITY Troy hasn’t always been University. When the school was founded in 1887, the school was called the State Normal School - Troy. In 1929 the school changed its name to the Troy State Teachers College. That would last until 1957, when the school was renamed Troy College. The school was then named Troy State University in 1967 . In 2004, the Board of Trustees voted to remove the “State” from the name, making it Troy University. Trustees felt the name change allows the university system to reflect its quality, funding sources and global mission better. VOICES OF THE TROJANS For over 25 years, Troy has had four play-by-play announcers, including current announcer Barry McKnight. For the majority of those years, Ralph Black was the “Voice of the Trojans.” Black called more than 200 of Troy’s football games, including both Division II national championships. Black served as the play-by-play announcer for all Troy sports, having broadcast two Division II national championships in baseball and the Division II championship game in basketball (1992). DEMARCUS WARE DeMarcus Ware became the first-ever first round draft pick for the Troy Trojans, when he was selected in the 2006 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Ware was the 11th overall pick of the draft.
