It’s being called the greatest win in Troy football history.
The team and the university were cast into the spotlight in a matter of hours, carried by a Trojan football team that picked up what could be the upset of the year in college football.
Troy (4-1, 1-0 Sun Belt) stunned LSU on the Tigers’ homecoming night, winning 24-21 in front of 99,897 fans in Tiger Stadium. What’s more, the Trojans received a paycheck to the tune of $985,000 to walk out of Death Valley with a win over a ranked opponent for the first time in 13 years.
