Staff predictions 10/31/17: Idaho vs Troy

Mihaela Karst, Troy- 28, Idaho- 12

Idaho faces Troy in Alabama this weekend, and I don’t know if the Vandals are going to be able to keep up with the Trojans on the field. Hopefully Cade Coffey is on his game, because I think the Vandals will need to heavily rely on him to get on the board once again.

Both teams have been unpredictable all season, but in the end Troy gets the edge with home field advantage. It will be close, but Idaho will come home with another loss.

Grayson Hughbanks, Idaho- 35, Troy- 14

The team is coming off the high of a good win against ULM and that will propel them to another win. It is do or die time for the Vandals and they will find a way to win at Troy.

Colton Clark, Troy- 34, Idaho- 30 

Ah, a classic Fun Belt matchup— this one could go either way. Idaho seems to have found a moderate groove after beating ULM Saturday and Troy has been decently consistent. Will the Vandals see the Troy against LSU or the Troy against South Alabama? My bets on the middle-ground.

Zack Ozuna, Idaho- 35, Troy- 27 

The Vandals travel to Troy this week on short rest. The Trojans have competed in several hard fought contests, but this week the Vandals will outlast. Idaho will rely on a heavy dose of the run game. Idaho wins 35-27.

Chris Deremer, Troy- 31, Idaho- 21

Vandals are on the road against a tough Troy team, unfortunately they come up short this week.

Jonah Baker, Troy- 33, Idaho- 14

The Vandals will run into a buzzsaw of a team that is hitting their stride after losing to Southern Alabama midseason. The Trojans are among the best in the nation at stopping in the run and holding fast in the red zone, spelling doom for Idaho.

Marisa Lloyd, Troy- 34, Idaho- 14

I don’t think the Idaho offense will be able to hold up on the road to Troy.
