Troy is โ or was, or was and will be again โ a paragon of consistency in a sport largely devoid of programs with staying power. This is especially true on the non-B.C.S. conference level, where few programs have shown an ability to reach the top of a conference and stay there, fighting off all challengers, for a period of time beyond one or two seasons. Troy dominated the Sun Belt for five years, from 2006-10, and no, dominate is not too strong a word. The Trojans won 77.3 percent of their conference games over these five seasons, the fourth-best conference winning percentage in college football โ behind Boise State, T.C.U., Ohio State and Virginia Tech. Thatโs some elite company. And thatโs one reason why itโs safe to say that Troy will be back, even if this swoon last two years, not just one.
