Super Bowl Update

The season's almost over, and probably can't get here soon enough for Troy and Florida Atlantic.

At FAU, Owls are 0-9, and just playing out the string for retiring coach Howard Schnellenberger. Got to think players are playing hard, but can't really "play for next season" because no one really knows what their role will be.

Not so much the case at Troy, though the Trojans are 2-7. With few senior starters, there is a little more to build on.

Game preview HERE.

I've picked Troy to win a few games this year that they've lost, but the premise here is that Troy's offense and QB are much better than FAU. Now, my prediction will be Troy 31, FAU 17.

However, if Troy turns the ball over 3 times and FAU just once or zero times, FAU will probably win.

Also, Troy hoopsters, at 1-1, though the one win doesn't really count, are back in action with a tough game at East Tennessee State. ETSU, which comes to Troy on Nov. 29, is 1-1 with a win over Appalachian State and a respectable loss to Virginia Tech. This one's going to be a tough one, though not impossible, for the Trojans to go win on the road. Game time is at 3 p.m.
