Troy football returns to the comforts of home to kick off Sun Belt Conference play this Saturday against the New Mexico State Aggies.
The Aggies (1-2, 0-0 Sun Belt) hung around in the first half against SEC foe Kentucky but ultimately fell 62-42 last week. On a rainy evening, the Trojans (2-1, 0-0 Sun Belt) squeezed by a strong Southern Mississippi squad on the road and will carry that momentum into this Sun Belt tilt.
Junior quarterback Brandon Silvers needs to have a short memory after his performance against the Golden Eagles.
