This will be a test for BYU coaches coming off a 3 week layoff. This has Toledo

and NIU written all over it in terms of having to take Troy seriously. Sounds like Troy has speed, and, with BYU, speed kills.

My scouting report on Troy.

Mojave

Troy fans think BYU doesn't appreciate what's coming for them.

Does El Jefe have a brother? Troy's message board needs some help.

They had a 10-3 season in '18 & 11-2 in '17, beating LSU when we couldn't cross

9/21/20 4:58pm

If Troy wins we need to shut down the BYU football category...the fallout on the board will be unbearable...

Troy wouldn't make the top 5 list on worst kalani lossee

BYU looked great in their last game. In fact they looked P5 level great to me.

And that very well may be the case

Hard to know what to expect. Mtsu is a really bad team

BYU '80

9/21/20 4:43pm

They were sure kinds to make Army look good as well.

unctoothman

9/21/20 4:48pm

I am a little skeptical of Army after seeing mtsu and ul Monroe. Both are brutal teams

BYU '80

9/21/20 4:54pm

Not hard at all. What's expected is fast pace and athleticism.

Lip Gallagher

9/21/20 5:41pm

I assume their best athlete are not lineman?

Their LB was a preseason All American per Phill Steele

9/21/20 6:04pm

I’m not saying they’re not talented

9/21/20 8:38pm

I watched some of their game on Saturday

so we'll rush 3, drop 8, let them dink and dunk on us all day

It's 2020. Move on from the dumb jokes.

Lip Gallagher

9/21/20 5:35pm

If Tuiaki moves on from the rush three drop eight it will

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 5:40pm

They already did. In January. It's old and tired.

Lip Gallagher

9/21/20 8:33pm

Some of us have only watched the team once since then and against an option team

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 8:40pm

Some of us simply paid attention to the program since the beginning of the year.

Lip Gallagher

9/21/20 10:29pm

Haven’t watched them but I’d bet we win in an average game

Anae vs BSU 2015 is a key example

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 8:41pm

Troy has “southeastern” talent. That’s a much bigger deal than most casual fans

LESSON TIME - What does SPEED mean in football?

LEDSFW

9/22/20 8:21am

blah blah blah blah blah. One position group has decent foot speed.

Thanks. I'm saving this post.

Great explanation. I question some of the reported times in the 40, but agree

theOnceler

9/22/20 10:33am

Great post. Also, stride length is a RESULT of leg length and strength. You

RUNBYU1

9/22/20 11:43am

I didn't say "stretch stride." Natural stride is simply longer for tall people.

LEDSFW

9/22/20 1:17pm

Agreed. Interestingly, the average world class male runner is 5'6"

RUNBYU1

9/24/20 9:37am

Good food for thought. What about quickness in the equation? I.e., how fast

Forzaitalia

This was good but comparing our recruits and players to SEC players is laughable

Jerry Rice really only ran a 4.7? That's impressive (meaning, his stats).

My only saving grace in all this is Grimes knows Troy and won't sleep on them.

I agree with you. It could be a tougher game than expected. But...
