"We were more physical than them," said Troy linebacker Kanorris Davis, who led the Trojans with 10 tackles. "The only thing they had over us was size. They had more size. Physical, head up, they weren't anything special."

Not that Im condoning our lackadaisical play but my response would be: 17 off, it's hard to get excited to play the likes of Troy State.

Yeah, but he told the truth. They were more physical. They set the tone on the first series when they knocked Arceto out. I only saw a real physical hit from us one time. That was delivered by Whitley. We pretty much just turned the other cheek all night

Look at their roster, look at some of their former players

Demarcus Ware, Osi Uminura (sp) I think. Anyway they do have talent. They did play physical. We are not a bad football team. We were not mentally prepared. They can get any player with a pulse in school and there are tons of kids who cant get in SEC schools who deserve to play there. So, yeah I believe they were physical. They were ready for us, but we were mentally unprepared. We gashed them at times. If you know anything about football you have to figure out what works, we did. We were WIDE OPEN all night (so were they). For some reason I feel like we were trying some different groupings and coverages to prepare for spread teams we are about to play. It is not time to panic.
