Troy comes out on top of crazy sequence

Troy brought a UNT kickoff out to the Mean Green's 46 then kept converting impossible first downs. Jerrel Jernigan took a direct snap off his fingers, chased it down and ran to the UNT 9, where he was tackled hard out of bounds by Royce Hill. A Troy player coming to Jernigan's defense was slapped with a personal foul, and Troy backed up to the UNT 20 on second down. Robinson then threw a high pass up into end zone traffic, and Eric Thomas went up high to grab the ball out of nowhere for a 20-yard TD. Troy leads 24-14.
