Louisiana Drops Last-Second Heartbreaker To Troy, 23-17

LAFAYETTE – Kimani Vidal scored on a 22-yard run with five seconds remaining and Sun Belt West Division leader Troy scored on four of its five possessions in the second half to rally for a 23-17 win over the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns on Saturday at Cajun Field.

Louisiana (4-5, 2-4 SBC) led 17-0 after Ben Wooldridge's acrobatic 10-yard TD run with 8:36 remaining in the third quarter before Troy (7-2, 5-1 SBC) would get on the scoreboard with a methodical 20-play, 75-yard scoring drive which would take up the rest of the period.

Gabe Watson capped off the drive for the Trojans, who won their sixth straight game, connecting with Michael Vice on a 3-yard scoring pass on fourth-and-goal on the final play of the third period.
