Troy Football Gameday Need to Know – T-Day at The Vet

TROY, Ala. – Troy wrapped its 13^th practice of the spring Tuesday morning on the grass practice fields behind Trojan Arena, and that pulls the Trojans just that much closer to Troy's annual T-Day Spring Game on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m., and admission is free to the game, but that is just one of a handful of fun activities for the whole family on campus Saturday.

"We're going to go two teams, and the offensive lineman will play in transition on both teams," head coach Jon Sumrall said about T-Day. "It will be the one-offense against the one-defense on the teams and then the two-offense against the two-defense on the teams. We'll split up in Cardinal and White, keeping score, and will have situations where the defense can score points for three-and-outs, turnovers and those types of things."
