years. That game will get underway at 1:30 p.m. CT

at Kidd-Brewer Stadium and is available for viewing

on ESPN3/WatchESPN.

App. State will not be able to win the outright

Sun Belt title on Saturday as a Mountaineer win will

leave them tied with the winner of the Arkansas

2017 SUN BELT CONFERENCE FOOTBALL

News and NotesSun Belt MembershipAppalachian State, Arkansas State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Louisiana, ULM, South Alabama, Texas State and Troy give the league 10 full-time members that compete in football. Little Rock and UTA compete as Sun Belt members in all sports other than football. Idaho and New Mexico State compete only in the sport of football.

Sun Belt Bowl PartnersIn 2001, the Sun Belt Conference began sponsoring football and created the inaugural New Orleans bowl in December of that year. The conference now stands as one of the 10 premier college football leagues in the country. As part of the College Football Playoff a worthy football team in the Sun Belt can be in the national championship picture, and the league is a permanent part of the “Group of Five” conferences (joining the American Athletic Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Mid-American Conference and Conference USA) that sends its highest-rated champion to a premier January 1st bowl game.

In the last four years the Sun Belt Conference has gone from having two primary bowl partnerships to five in 2017. From 2001 to 2009 the Sun Belt Conference had only one bowl partner.

Sun Belt Conference Championship GameThe Sun Belt Conference will hold its first ever football championship game as the league’s presidents and chancellors, as well as athletic directors, voted unanimously to play the game beginning in 2018. The addition of Coastal Carolina and the decision to move forward as a 10-team football league, along with the NCAA Division I Council’s rules on championship games, means that the championship game has become a reality.

Sun Belt Athletes are Student-AthletesDuring the recent 2016-17 academic year, Sun Belt member institutions awarded over $50 million in scholarships to more than 3,100 student-athletes, while also providing life experiences such as team building, domestic and foreign travel, community service, mentoring and recognition through honors and awards. The commitment to education recently led to over 2,100 Sun Belt Conference student-ath-letes being named to the 2016-17 Commissioner’s List and Academic Honor Roll. The list is comprised of 1,087 student-athletes on the Commissioner’s List (3.5 grade point average or better) and 1,045 student-athletes on the Academic Honor Roll (GPA between 3.0 and 3.49).

2017 SUN BELT CONFERENCE FOOTBALL

News and NotesTroy Tops #25 LSU and Named FWAA’s National Team of the WeekThe Troy Trojans went into Death Valley, raced out to a 17-0 lead and never trailed in a 24-21 win in front of a packed house at LSU. For ending LSU’s 49-game home non-conference winning streak, the Trojans earned the Football Writers Associa-tion of America National Team of the Week honor for games of the weekend of Sept. 30. The win was only Troy’s second over a ranked opponent in school history. Jordan Chunn rushed for 191 yards and a touchdown and the Trojans (4-1) forced four turnovers. Troy led 24-7 with 8:14 to play, but the Tigers rallied to get within 24-21 with two minutes left. The Trojans foiled two onside kicks and Blace Brown intercepted his eighth career pass to ice the game. Brown also forced a fumble, recorded five tackles and broke up a pass. Troy improves to 1-2 in the series against LSU, but the Trojans have led in the fourth quarter of all three games. The Trojans led 10-0 at the half on Saturday, marking the first time since 2009 that LSU had trailed at the half of a non-conference home game. The Trojans’ other win over a ranked opponent was a 24-14 win over No. 17 Missouri (then a Big 12 member) in 2004. This is Troy’s first time to win the FWAA award. The Football Writers Association of America has named a national team of the week since the 2002 season.

He was first recognized during his outstanding freshman season of 2015 before missing almost all of the 2016 season due to injury. The Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation, Inc., will announce the 10 Biletnikoff Award semifinalists on Nov. 13, following the vote by the members of the Biletnikoff Award National Selection Committee. The three finalists will be declared, following another vote, on Nov. 21, and the 2017 Biletnikoff Award winner will be presented live on Dec. 7 on The Home Depot College Football Awards Show.

South Alabama’s Waitman Named Ray Guy Award Punter of the WeekFollowing his performance in South Alabama’s game against Georgia State, Jaguar punter Corliss Waitman was selected the Ray Guy Award Punter of the Week by the Augusta Sports Council. Waitman had a career-high four of five punts end inside the 20-yard line — tying the school game record in the category — while recording an average of 46.4 yards per kick against the Panthers. The junior also equaled a season high with three punts of 50 or more yards and did not have any of his kicks returned in claiming the honor for the first time in his career.

• Bowl eligible and winners of six of their last eight games, Georgia State concludes the regular season by hosting Idaho.• Under first-year head coach Shawn Elliott, the Panthers enter their regular-season finale one game out of first place in the league, trailing Arkansas State, Appalachian State and Troy, each at 6-1. • Georgia State’s eight-year old football program is bowl eligible for the second time in three seasons. • Five of Georgia State’s six victories have come on the road. The Panthers are tied for second nationally (with Oklahoma, San Diego State, Southern Miss, UCF and Central Michigan) with five road victories

this season. Only Oklahoma State (6) has more.• Sophomore receiver Penny Hart is the Sun Belt’s leading receiver with 70 catches for 1,022 yards and eight touchdowns. He is eighth in the nation in recep-tions (7.0) and receiving yards (102.2) per game. Hart ranks fourth among all active FBS receivers with a career average of 5.96 receptions and fifth with 87.3 receiving yards per game. Hart needs two receptions to break the GSU single-season record of 71, which Hart (2015) shares with Albert Wilson (2013). With 1,022 yards this season, Hart is the first Panther to record two 1,000-yard seasons. He is 155 yards behind Wilson’s GSU season record of 1,177 yards.

• Senior quarterback Conner Manning is averaging 259.9 yards passing per game (third in the Sun Belt) with 13 touchdowns. He leads the league in comple-tion percentage at 64 percent.• Senior cornerback and Senior Bowl invitee Chandon Sullivan is one of 13 national finalists at all levels for the 2017 William V. Campbell Trophy®, presented by Fidelity Investments® for the National Football Foundation (NFF) & College Hall of Fame. The trophy recognizes the absolute best football scholar-athlete in the nation. Sullivan was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District® team for the third straight year.

• Idaho has played a school-record seven one-pos-session games, all of them coming in Sun Belt play. The Vandals are 2-5 in those contests, suffering their five conference losses by a combined 24 points. The last time Idaho played an entire conference season with every game decided by one possession was 1939, going 0-3 in the Pacific Coast Conference.

• Idaho blocked two field goals against New Mexico State (Nov. 25). It is the first time the Vandals have blocked multiple kicks in a game since 2008, against Idaho State (Sept. 6).

• Tony Lashley has a team-high 107 tackles this season. Lashley, a junior, led the Vandals with 107 tackles last season and will look to record his third 100-tackle season next year. Only two Vandals in school history have three seasons with at least 100 tackles (Sam Merriman, 1979-82; and Jason Shelt, 1992-96).

• Aaron Duckworth needs 88 rushing yards to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the season. Duckworth is looking to secure the 14th 1,000-yard season in program history. He has reached 912 yards on 174 carries. Only one Vandal has rushed for 1,000 yards

on fewer than 200 attempts in a season (Russell Davis, 1981; 1,117 yards on 140 carries).

• Kaden Elliss is the only FBS player in the country with a sack and a receiving touchdown in the same game, and the first to do so since 2013. Elliss first accomplished the feat against Missouri (Oct. 21) and repeated the performance a week later against ULM (Oct. 28).

• Darius Hoggins’ career-long 75-yard touchdown run in the second quarter against Georgia Southern was his first of the season and was the longest offen-sive play for the Ragin’ Cajuns in 2017. • Senior DB Tracy Walker recorded a career-high 14 tackles to lead the Ragin’ Cajuns against Georgia Southern. His 82 tackles lead the team and his 5.2 solo stops per game are 34th among FBS players.

• Ryheem Malone posted his second consecutive 100-yard receiving game after catching six passes for 106 yards and a TD. His 42-yard reception in the second quarter was a season-long. • Stevie Artigue’s 50-yard field in the third quarter was his second 50-yard field goal of the season. He became the first Ragin’ Cajuns kicker since Mike Shafer in 1995 to connect on a pair of 50-yard field goals in a season and is the fourth kicker in school history to achieve the feat.

• Jarrod Jackson’s 26-yard TD reception in the fourth quarter was his second of the season. • Linebacker Justin Middleton, making his first career start, posted a season-high 11 tackles with a half-sack and 1.5 tackles for loss. • Louisiana’s 48 total plays run and 19:58 in time of possession were both season-lows.

• ULM finishes the regular season with a resched-uled game at Florida State, which topped Florida 38-22 on Saturday to improve to 5-6. The game was originally planned for Sept. 9 but canceled due to Hurricane Irma. • Sun Belt Special Teams Player of the Week Marcus Green left his tracks all over JPS Field in ULM’s home football finale at Malone Stadium this past Saturday. Green returned a kickoff for a 95-yard touchdown and caught eight passes for a career-best 193 yards and another score on Saturday. In the game, he set school records with six kickoff returns for 206 yards and 418 all-purpose yards.

• Green’s heroics helped ULM keep pace with Arkansas State in a wild shootout, but the Red Wolves surged late and claimed a 67-50 win over the Warhawks.• ULM quarterback Caleb Evans completed 21-of-37 passes for 454 yards and four touchdowns and rushed 17 times for 61 yards and two more scores, but was also intercepted three times. Evans topped 3,000 career passing yards in the game and ranks in ULM’s all-time Top 10. Evans also scored his 12th and 13th rushing touchdowns to extend his ULM record by a quarterback.

• Eight seniors were recognized prior to their final appearance at Malone Stadium against Arkansas State. The Class of 2017 includes defensive lineman David Elias Jr. (Prairieville, La.), defensive tackle Howard Houston Jr. (Riverside, Calif.), snapper Luke Hutchinson (Carnation, Wash.), safety Roland Jenkins (New Orleans, La.), cornerback Juwan Offray (New Orleans, La.), offensive lineman Frank Sutton Jr. (Jackson, Miss.), defensive end Caleb Tucker (Monroe, La.) and wide receiver Brian Williams (Bogalusa, La.)

• Jones will be on the sidelines when the Jaguars close the regular season for the second straight year against New Mexico State, this time on the road.• It’s just the second time in program history the Jags will close the regular season on the road, with the first a 23-7 loss at Hawai’i on Dec. 1, 2012.• With a win in this contest South will finish at or above .500 in Sun Belt Conference play for the first time since the 2014 campaign, while the Jaguars are also looking to pick up multiple road wins in Sun Belt action for first time since 2014.• Jeremy Reaves is three stops shy of 100 on the season, as he set a career high in the category when he recorded his 97th of the year in the fourth quarter last time out at Georgia Southern. Terrell Brigham is

the only defensive back in school history to surpass 100 tackles in a season, accomplishing the feat with a team-best 113 in 2014.• Reaves needs only six tackles to become just the second individual in program history with 300 in a ca-reer; Enrique Williams is the school’s all-time leader with 344 total stops over a five-year span from 2009-13, which included 320 tackles his final four seasons.• Tra Minter also finished with multiple receptions for the third consecutive outing — it was the sixth time in the last seven games he has accomplished the feat — as his 19 catches out of the backfield are the most ever recorded by a South running back; Jay Jones set the previous standard at the position with 18 during the 2012 campaign.

• Texas State closed out its 2017 season with a 2-10 overall record and 1-7 Sun Belt Conference mark after falling at Troy on Nov. 24. • The Bobcats had eight seniors and a graduate transfer complete their collegiate careers at Troy last Friday. The seniors include Easy Anyama, Stephan Johnson, Elijah King, Gabe Loyd, Eric Luna, Chris French, Gabe Schrade and Jordan Versey, along with graduate transfer Damian Williams. Graduate students Jeff Banks and Louis Ruben also completed their careers at Texas State in 2017 but did not play at Troy.

• The Bobcats were one of 10 NCAA Division I FBS schools to have six true freshmen start at least one game and one of 12 FBS schools to have 16 true freshmen play this season. The six starters are Jeremiah Haydel, Nic Foster and Reece Jordan on offense, with John Brannon, Caeveon Patton and Kordell Rodgers on defense. • The Bobcats rank 35th nationally and second in the Sun Belt Conference in rushing defense after holding opponents to 141.7 yards per game this season. Texas State held four opponents under 100 yards rushing. They are Coastal Carolina (34), Wyoming (84), Colorado (91) and Houston Baptist (59). Texas

State also held Appalachian State to a season-low 116 yards rushing. • Texas State ranks second among Sun Belt Confer-ence teams and 30th nationally with nine fumbles recovered after collecting two fumbles against both Georgia State and New Mexico State. • The Bobcats lead the Sun Belt Conference and rank fourth nationally in fourth-down conversion defense after holding its opponents to just 25.0 percent of their fourth down attempts. • Texas State ranks 17th nationally and second in the Sun Belt Conference in blocked kicks with three after blocking a field goal attempt at Troy.

• Neal Brown has never been shutout as a head coach or as an offensive coordinator -- a span of 124 games. • Troy outgained Texas State 204 to (-1) in the open-ing quarter of play. • Troy improved to 21-1 all-time under Neal Brown when leading at the half; the Trojans led 41-0 over Texas State. • Troy improved to 22-0 all-time under Neal Brown when leading after three quarters of play; the Trojans led 55-6 at the end of third quarter. • After opening 3-8 under Neal Brown, Troy has now won 20 of its last 25 games. • Troy’s 41-0 lead was its largest since holding a 52-0

advantage over Alcorn State in 2008. • After outscoring Texas State 24-0 in the second quarter, Troy has outscored its opponents by an 108-15 margin in the second quarter this season. • Troy entered the game with a 6.90 scoring differen-tial in the second quarter -- good for fifth best in the country -- the Trojans outscored Texas State 24-0 in the second quarter. • Troy’s 19 combined wins over the past two seasons are the most in the school’s FBS history and tied for the sixth most in school history. • Troy improved to 67-38 all-time in Sun Belt Con-ference games - that is the most wins in the league since 2004 (when Troy joined the conference) and

the second most all time (the Sun Belt was formed in 2001). • Troy’s 62 points were the most scored by a Troy team in a Sun Belt game in school history. It is also the most points scored by Troy against an FBS opponent. • Troy topped the 50-point mark for the sixth time under head coach Neal Brown. Troy had done so just three times prior at the FBS level (2004-pr.) and had done so just once in the previous 66 games before Brown took over. • Troy’s 641 yards of total offense rank as the sixth most in the school’s FBS history, while the 487 pass-ing yards are the fifth most.
