The comparisons of the two teams are stunningly similar
Troy and UTSA enter the Cure Bowl riding 10-game win streaks, holding 11-2 records, nationally ranked in the AP Top 25 and in possession of conference championships.
No. 23 Troy and No. 22 UTSA will kickoff at 2 p.m. central time Friday at Exploria Stadium in a game to be televised by ESPN. It will be a matchup of two dynamic offenses led by quarterbacks – Gunnar Watson of Troy and Frank Harris of UTSA – who are at the top of their games. “I’m a defensive-minded head coach,” Sumrall said. “I usually look at, where’s the weakness of a team? And I don’t see it. Usually I can find an area where we can attack here or we can do this. And then I look at where’s the strengths? And their strengths are many.
While UTSA is indeed explosive offensively in averaging 38.7 points per game, the Troy defense has been one of the best in the nation, led by senior linebacker Carlton Martial, who is the NCAA FBS career tackles leader with 563 stops.
