Gaming World - NCAA 12 - Troy Trojans - 2027 Season - Week 3 vs. Tulane

The Trojans hit the road for the 1st time this season as we took on Tulane.

The Green Wave are 1-0 with a win last week over an FCS school.

Our starting QB Alonzo Roberts entered into this game having thrown for 14 Touchdowns and not a single Interception. That changed tonight in the superdome. Alonzo tossed his 1st INT of the year and the Trojans got off to a really slow start. The score of the game was 21 to 13 in favor of the Trojans at the half. 

Because of the great play of Alonzo to begin the season, not much attention has been placed on the defense. However, for the 3rd week in a row the defense came up huge. They held the Green Wave to Zero points in the 2nd half. After our D had 5 sacks in the 2nd half, our offense got going and we scored three touchdowns to close out the game. 

For the 3rd week in a row Alonzo was named player of the game! He now has 19 Touchdowns and 1 interception in just three games. You can see how well the Tulane defense played early in the game as Alonzo had 16 incompletions to just 12 completions.

The win also moved us up from #21 to #17 in the polls.

Alonzo's dominating quarterback play moved him into Heisman consideration! He still has a long way to go, but has had a great start to this year.

Conference USA Player of the Week for the 3rd week in a row.

Alonzo is the #1 passer in the NCAA right now, but has an Iowa QB right on his tail for #1.

Can't forget about the guys that make Alonzo look good on offense catching the football.

Credit for the Trojan defense too!
