Don’t corner an underdog, because it just might bite back. Besides their home-opener against Jackson State, the Warhawks have been heavy underdogs in every contest this season.
ULM rose to the challenge and upset Troy, but struggled after losing quarterback Rhett Rodriguez with a lung injury. With Rodriguez still out of action and Chandler Rogers filling in at quarterback, ULM played up to a strongly favored Liberty Flames team and garnered their second upset win of the season with a 31-28 victory.
After a scoreless first half, ULM scored 28 unanswered points to open the second half.
