MONROE, La. – ULM found itself down by four touchdowns to Troy at halftime of its Sun Belt Conference opener.
That doesn't mean the Warhawks were ready to pack it in though.
A furious rally put ULM back in the game before falling 35-27 at Malone Stadium.
"Give our guys a lot of credit for coming back," ULM head coach Matt Viator said. "Maybe a couple of years ago we'd have mailed it in. We didn't. We came back, fought back and stayed together."
ULM outscored Troy 20-0 in the second half and limited the Trojans to four first downs while forcing five punts.
