Trojans, Red Wolves are both 3-2 this season
Buddha Jones and Troy are 3-2 heading into Saturday's home game vs. Arkansas State. Not that there are any scheduling soft spots in major college football, but Troy’s game Saturday is looking tougher these days than it did a few weeks ago.
Arkansas State lost by a combined 110-3 in its first two games vs. Oklahoma and Memphis, and led Stony Brook just 17-0 when Raynor entered the game. Butch Jones’ Red Wolves went on to win that game 31-7, and since then has beaten Southern Miss 44-37 and UMass 52-28. Troy also largely held in-check a dynamic quarterback in Georgia State’s Darren Grainger, who was intercepted twice and held without a touchdown pass for the first time all year. Trojans defensive tackle Buddha Jones made arguably the biggest play of the game in the fourth quarter, forcing Grainger to fumble on an option pitch near the goal line when the Panthers had been threatening to get within one score.
Vidal, who also scored two touchdowns in the game, again figured into an interesting statistical trend for the Trojans. In games in which Vidal has rushed for at least 50 yards, Troy is 19-3.
