Neither Troy nor Louisiana had any hesitation about making it a four-down game on Saturday.
The Ragin' Cajuns are one of the top-ranked teams in the country on fourth down. They were 14-for-20 in those situations coming into the game and were 3-for-5 on fourth down Saturday.
Troy was even better; converting all five times they went for it on fourth down. The Trojans are now 13-for-18 for the season.
