TROY, Ala. -- Folks in Jonesboro may be talking about Saturday night's thriller at Veterans Memorial Stadium for a long time.
The night that an injury to a Troy offensive lineman triggered a game-clinching, 10-second runoff of the clock and a 50-43 victory for Arkansas State University.
The night that the Red Wolves had a 92-yard touchdown pass on their first offensive play, and a scoop-and-score 40-yard touchdown return on defense soon after.
The night that redshirt freshman quarterback Layne Hatcher, making the first start of his college career, went on the road and outdueled one of the Sun Belt's top passers in Troy senior quarterback Kaleb Barker.
