In typical “Fun Belt” fashion, the Troy football team scored with 17 seconds left in the game to come back and defeat Arkansas State 32-25 on Saturday night to lay claim to a share in the Sun Belt Conference Championship.
After giving up two touchdowns and squandering a 24-13 lead in the final three minutes of the game, the Trojans marched down the field to the tune of a nine-play, 72-yard game winning drive that ended with quarterback Brandon Silvers throwing a 14-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Deondre Douglas.
The score gave Troy a 30-25 lead, and after a successful two-point conversion, gave the visitors a seven-point lead.
