Troy’s defense has been especially impressive of late. In five conference games, the Trojans are holding opponents to just 57.25 rushing yards per game and 2.20 yards per carry, which ranks third best in the country, and a nation-leading one rushing touchdown in the month of October. Opponents averaged just 305.8 yards per game and 14.3 points during that month.
